She doesn't "get" my passion for quilting. That's okay because she's a great friend in all the other areas of my life. I have quilt friends who "get" my quilting. Thank heavens for them! :)Suzanne Shearonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08259808394014687235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-14203465327022338602022-10-04T12:00:31.525-04:002022-10-04T12:00:31.525-04:00Just finished thre 11 season of Call the Midwife. ...Just finished thre 11 season of Call the Midwife.

Hurray, it's almost ready for the frosting aka: Quilting. Because I made my sashings bigger it fits great on my Queen sized bed. Pretty Quilts over the rails and on the #5 Bed. Great job Ladies. Today is a quiet day for Hubby, resting up for the rest of the week. Enjoy Martha time looking for the fall colors.

Looking forward to seeing where that project leads you. <br /><br />Started a new recycled shirt project recently. I save some of the non-quiltable shirt parts (plackets, etc.) for other uses. Had hundreds of neckbands from 10+ years of shirt buying, but didn't have an idea to use them since they curve, taper, etc. Decided to cut them apart at the edge seams, harvesting the long strips of fabric. (Didn't want to sew them as strings - too narrow, some have worn areas, yellowing...) I've been twisting them into fabric twine to make rugs. The twisting goes really fast and is a great evening TV project. Going to be a cool, sturdy rug from what would otherwise be trash. The shirts just keep on giving!Leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09232459401326203771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-23486218778452439212022-10-04T10:11:44.931-04:002022-10-04T10:11:44.931-04:00I'm glad you were able to do porch quilts; I r...I'm glad you were able to do porch quilts; I really look forward to them! We are having a lovely string of fall days here in southern Michigan, but the trees are hanging on to those leaves with only a few maples turning so far. Today I finish my "squirrel" project- a fall table runner for the living room. <br />sue shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14330824150065090771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-13724130230724023272022-10-04T09:49:45.575-04:002022-10-04T09:49:45.575-04:00I love hanging out with people who let their creat...I love hanging out with people who let their creativity out to play - they feed my own imagination. Hubby and I spent yesterday afternoon and evening at our county fair - we enjoyed seeing the exhibits in the art hall of quilts, woodworking, photography, paintings, gourd art, floral arrangements, collections, antique items, and much more! Each exhibited item shows an interest or talent - so very inspiring.Gail Piperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02691599465324117777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-10542584905525485642022-10-04T09:31:08.712-04:002022-10-04T09:31:08.712-04:00LOL!!!

I find when I'm in the middle of a project, the creative juices start flowing again and another project is born. Sometimes, though, I've forgotten the totally inspired idea for my next project even after I've pulled fabrics for that new idea and later find the pile and wonder, what the heck was I going to do with this? Today is a work day for me and I'm promising myself I'm going to get the work order done today so I can work on one of my projects. <br />Karen and her dog Zoe from Port Orange FLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16047860790373387709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-59245420104835305962022-10-04T08:59:00.882-04:002022-10-04T08:59:00.882-04:00 another gray and drizzly day here in central MD..... another gray and drizzly day here in central MD...cityquilter gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16769584628450845408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-5184889155305569442022-10-04T08:50:52.787-04:002022-10-04T08:50:52.787-04:00i don't 'get' people who claim they ar...i don't 'get' people who claim they are not creative!!! They must be horribly constipated!!! How can you not be creative??? I'm sorry for their inner child, cause i know mine won't let me rest!!! AND the more I let her out and about, the more creative she becomes... I think that's the 'secret' of creativity! One other thing this happy Tuesday!!! Mine has become the laundry 2-step, or tango, or whatever dance I'm doing any particular day... step to the washer, turn to the dryer and round about to sorting and folding, in the meantime, it's once to the dryer and another to the washer, until we're all folded and done! Have a fabulous week everybody, I love all the lovely chats and Bonnie's never-ending creativity, Cats in sunny, hot, Carlsbad (where did fall go?) CA.
