MQG Pincushion Swap Update
You might remember that I made a pincushion for a Modern Quilt Guild swap (and sent me into an orgy of pincushion making), which was organized by the Kansas Modern Quilt Guild. You can see the pincushions that were sent … Continue reading
BAMQG Meeting
This is my ‘F’ block for the A-B-C challenge. There were a number of blocks with names beginning with F that were appealing, so it was hard to choose. I might do another one. I really like that blue. It … Continue reading
BAMQG Exchange Blocks
A few weeks ago I talked about the blocks I was planning on making for the BAMQG challenge. Here are the first two. I had an idea for these blocks, but I also had a couple of obstacles to the … Continue reading
BAMQG Swap Blocks
Here are the blocks I made from the strips we exchanged at the Bay Area Modern Quilt Guild Meeting last time. I am not a big fan of the colors I picked. You know I don’t like working with lumpy … Continue reading
CQFA ATCs
Saturday was the ATC swap at CQFA. I didn’t really like to make ATCS when the group first started swapping, but lately I have found the creative outlet to be a good one. I really enjoyed making my swap ATCs … Continue reading
ATCs from CQFA
The other day I wrote about the CQFA meeting and the activities in which we participated. I finally processed all the photos. They aren’t great, because there were a lot of people swapping this time. I came into the room … Continue reading
ATCs for CQFA

Last Infinity Blocks
These are the last two Infinity blocks. I had exactly enough white to make two more blocks. I tried, while I was making the majority of the blocks, to choose tone-on-tone fabrics. For these last two blocks, this fabric called … Continue reading

Last of the Infinity Blocks
Here are the last blocks from my SIL. I got them from my niece who brought them back from Maryland (family-mail). I have had them around for at least two months and I haven’t had a chance to put them … Continue reading
ATC Day at CQFA
The CQFA met at Always Quilting yesterday. The Always Quilting strip club was also meeting and somehow the space issue got mixed up so we crammed into one of their small rooms to do business, show and tell and swap … Continue reading
SIL’s Infinity
SIL already used up a bunch of the Infinity blocks we swapped to make this quilt. She entered it in her county fair and won third place. I was so pleased for her. I love the layout as well. Very … Continue reading
New Infinity Blocks
I received another batch of Infinity blocks from my SIL in the mail last week. Here is the large group (about 31) that I received. It is so interesting to see her fabric selections and the fabrics she has and … Continue reading
Nearly at Infinity
The Infinity blocks had been languishing for a little while. I needed some test subjects for the tuned up machine, so I sewed a couple. The middle one is of the ones I made on Saturday and the others have … Continue reading
Back in the Saddle
I stayed away from the computer all day yesterday and sewed. The 9000 is back and better than it has been in a long time. It is quieter. I can punch any button I want and the machine reacts instantly. … Continue reading
ATCs at CQFA
While you were sipping your cappucinos this morning, I was finishing the edges of my very first ATCs – Artist Trading Cards – and dashing off to meet with my fellow CQFAers. Maureen had suggested that we do a swap … Continue reading
