Just Spoolin Around...

When I saw this quilt in the summer issue of "Primitive Quilts and Projects" magazine I knew that I had to make it! My sewing table was full of scraps and I could see all the great spools that they would make. The background is a primitive tea stained fabric that I have at the shop and I love using it. The applique pieces are wool that are hand stitched with pearl cotton and floss. The quilt in the magazine has a saying stitched around the spools, but I decided not to put it on mine. So get busy, rummage thru your fabric stash and make this whimsical quilt. Wouldn't it look great in your sewing room or draped over an old sewing machine!! AND....Dont forget that my quilt project " SWEET PICKINS" is coming out in the Fall issue of " Primitive Quilts & Projects" magazine. Happy Stitching, Peg

Red, White and Blue!

Happy Memorial Day! Finished stitching the binding on the runner that you see across the bench. Spent part of the day planting flowers, washing curtains and grilling food...it was a busy day! The quilt block that you see in the background is a block from a new project that I am working on...it should be done soon. It seems like I have been in a red, white and blue mood lately.

Happy Stitching, Peg

"Little Red Schoolhouse"

We just received the new pattern "Little Red Schoolhouse" by Pam Buda and I couldn't wait to get started making a sample for the shop. Pam used the fabric from " Cotton Club" and because we have the fabric from our BOM program I used this in my quilt too. OOPS!!! I realized after photo was taken that I made an oops.. on one of the houses!! Not to worry ..the house has been re-built and is ready for assembly. Little Red Schoolhouse kits will be ready soon. " FINGER PAINT" Quilt Kit

" Finger Paint" quilt is completely done and Kits are ready....to order a kit you can call or email me. Cost of kit is $51.99.

Finger Paint Finished!

Finger paint quilt top is done ....now onto the long arm for quilting! The pattern is by "Heartspun Quilts" and the fabric is from "Seasonal Little Gatherings" by Primitive Gatherings ( Moda). This was the perfect match of pattern and fabric and you can get everything needed at "Quilted Crow".

Watch for more projects coming soon!!!

SUNDAY SEWING

" Seasonal Little Gatherings" fabric just arrived at the shop and I found the perfect pattern " Finger Paint" to use with the charm squares. So no cooking and cleaning today! Today will be "Sunday Sewing" day.

My furry helper "Mia" always has to make sure that she is in the photo shoot, after all she did help with the re-organizing of the blocks.

First borders are on the quilt..Quilt top will be finished soon and hung at the shop.

KITCHEN FINISHED!!

Kitchen Update

Here are some pics of the upper cabinets with crown molding, trim and hardware.I decided to have under cabinet trim put on the cabinets and I am glad that I did...it finishes it nicely.

New paint and wainscoting for the dining area and new vera mahogoney floors. The black chimney cupboard is a piece that I brought out from another room...I think that it works well and will go nice with my harvest table.

The backsplash is being installed with a lighter brick and decorative squares and trim. The counter is quartz in a bourbon color ...its gorgeous! I will post more pics when everything is finished and I have some decorating added.

Mia...soaking in the sunshine!!!
