I am doing my front porch in red, white and blue and I think that this quilt will be a great snuggle up quilt for evenings on the porch. It's nice to be thinking of summer and sitting on the porch. I'm certainly waiting anxiously for warm weather again:) I love the fabric that I found for my next quilt, too. It is going to be fun working with the softer colors and the polka dots. I am delighted that polka dots are back in style again; I have always loved them:)Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187302890702147585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-19385980558045537702015-02-05T08:45:02.625-08:002015-02-05T08:45:02.625-08:00Good Morning Lynn, Welcome to my little corner of...Good Morning Lynn, Welcome to my little corner of blog-land and thank you so much for following my blog. <br />I love how you show your talents in a tutorial and share your amazing gift. <br />Your new Christmas tray transformation is gorgeous:) Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187302890702147585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-25269611728733049932015-02-05T08:37:41.435-08:002015-02-05T08:37:41.435-08:00Good Morning Vicky, thank you so much . . .

The movie is good but the book is better. Did you know that it was the first full length colored motion picture :) Just a little history there. At the same time that color came out 1938, they were in the middle of The Wizard Of Oz, some brilliant director decided to use this new technique and bring it into the movie right when they discovered the yellow brick road. Thank you for your sweet words of encouragement . . . I enjoy quilting for my family, but would never win a prize for my talent in this medium, but I have fun and I can whip out a cozy blanket :)Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187302890702147585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-61675020652310110612015-02-05T08:25:51.702-08:002015-02-05T08:25:51.702-08:00Hi Tete, I usually put on music or an old movie t...Hi Tete, I usually put on music or an old movie that I have seen many times, then I can just listen to it and know the story.

Rug mugs are a great way to practice. I'll be posting my finished quilt in a few days. I sat up late last night and finished it. Check out the label. The design was a pattern that I download to my machine, but after I finish sewing the download I put it into an embroidery hoop and free-handed my name and date. The way I did it is the same way you would free-hand patterns onto your quilts, only when you have the thickness of a front fabric, batting and a back, you do not need a hoop. It is so much fun, you will love it I guarantee.

My friend is interested in learning the process, so i've decided to do one so that she can see how they are joined together. When you don't have a long arm machine, or one of those fancy quilting machines, quilt as you go is a great way to do it. The thing that I like best about it, is that you have so much freedom to get creative with your stitches.
