Blooming Pinwheels
I’ve been working on a new pattern. It came about last winter when we able to download the Quilt Minnesota Shop Hop 2020 fabric jpgs. I putzed around in EQ7 to come up with the block for the Old Creamery. I decided to use that block for a quilt that we could kit up for […]
Another Shop Hop quilt
We used Fly Away for one of our samples last year, also with the state panel. It went over very well, we’ll use it again this year. The quilt measures 54″ x 74″. The pattern shows off both the panel and the border fabric. My cold is now under control, and I feel human again!

Day 11
It appears I will have at least two posts today. What I thought I had posted Sunday was only a draft. Yesterday I couldn’t think of anything worth writing about. We have very cold weather, I think it’s about -14…no, wait! It’s now -19. Brrrr!! I finished a project yesterday but forgot to take a […]
Day 5
I work at the Old Creamery Quilt Shop in Randall. We participate in the Quilt Minnesota Shop Hop every year. In 2020 it runs from July 31 to August 16. The fabric needs to be ordered next week, so I’ve spending time today in EQ7 (Electric Quilt), dropping the fabrics into some of my quilt […]
