Thank you all so much for your nice comments on my Medallion Project!
I hung up my Sumptuous Stars quilt for the first time. It's perfect for fall.
I also hung Happy Town in the Sewing Room
It's Fair time in New England! Hip Hip Hooray. Is there anything more American?
Hanna and I love to see the exhibits of flowers, jams, and baked goods.
What beautiful horses.
we love the petting area!
This Darcy - a 3 month old calf. Everywhere mom went, Darcy was by her side.
This bunny is so over the whole thing.
Hanna's college pong skills earned her a new Goldfish: Pumpkin.
MMMmm the food. Fried dough and lemonade. We have plans to attend 2 other major fairs.
We've had a very fun time this summer taking care of Timothy, my son's science classroom pet. He's a skinny pig, which is a hairless guinea pig. He does have hair on his cute face.
It was fun making little houses for him.
For no reason at all - he tossed his cage one night, lol. He moved literally everything in his enclosure!
First Day of school photo of my science teacher son Andrew. We're so proud of him. Have a great year at PS 28.
I hit a real speed bump while making my repro swap blocks. I spritzed a block and pressed it and this happened.
To test my other intended fabric I sprayed each with water.
I layered them and pressed with a dry iron.
Here you can see the transfer onto the muslin :(
These may be slightly older fabrics and not as colorfast. Without knowing what process everyone uses when piecing their quilts, I think it is safer this time to pre-wash and begin again.
Have a great week!
