Welcome to my patchwork journal. I enjoy expressing myself through fiber. Tiny pieces of vintage quilt blocks and fabric combined with hand stitches create my art. When not quilting I'm living a patchwork life. Always changing and helping to keep me young and on my toes. Join me in my experiences and thoughts.

Thinking Christmas
The first assignment for the Aiming for Accuracy Quilt-Along was to think about and select fabrics for our project. I'm thinking Christmas.
I have a large box of Christmas fabrics in my sewing room and I thought that I could put together a variety of fabrics to make up my selection. We were also to decide on a contrasting fabric such as a black or white. I've decided on white. Starting date has been moved to June 27, so there is plenty of time for you to consider joining in on the fun. Check my link for more details. Happy Quilting!

Sunday---Precious Promises
Never take revenge, my friend but instead let God's anger do it. For the scripture says, "I will take revenge, I will pay back, says the Lord.: Instead, as the scripture says: "If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink; for by doing this you will make him burn with shame." Do not let evil defeat you; instead, conquer evil with good. Romans 12: 19-21 Good News

Accuracy---For the Summer & Beyond
I'm joining the Aiming for Accuracy Quilt-Along. The quilt-along will be lead by Michele Foster and the quilt will be one of her designs. Accuracy is something I struggle with---even on my little quilts. I get rushed and say "O' Well". Then I regret not taking the time to correct my mistake, of course that is after it is quilted and I can't go back. I'm hoping a summer of instruction and concentration on that skill will help me to slow down and make accuracy my priority on all my projects.
The quilt-along starts on June 20. Join in. I'm getting my thoughts together for fabric choices. It's already fun. Have a great Wednesday and Happy Quilting.
