Spring Quilters Retreat...

I just finished up a week at

Spring Quilters Retreat....2019

Here are a few of the things

I stitched on:

My Inspiration...

I love those cool 1960's shapes

I turned those shapes into...

Wonky Felt Coasters

The bottom layers is....3mm Felt

The top 2 layers...1 mm Felt

These are so much FUN to scribble stitch

with free motion and black thread !

Wonky Coasters

I will be creating more of these!

I also worked on another Jelly Roll Rug:

Jelly Roll Rug.....DONE !

I pulled out a Snap Bag Kit:

This kit makes...3 Snap Bags

Absolutely everything is included in the kit...

They are lots of FUN!

It was a great week with lots of Stitching!

Jelly Roll Rug.....DONE

This is my first attempt at creating a

Jelly Roll Rug

I truly enjoyed the process...

To keep it flat...

I used Best Press and I ironed it after I stitched

each and every round.

Jelly Roll Rug.....Progress

The last time you saw this jelly roll rug

it looked like this...

this is 4 hours into this project.

I stitched on it again today...

I finished stitching the batting inside

of all of the strips

and rolled them into a big ball...

This is my set up:

The big ball is sitting in a glass bowl

between my feet...

This allows it to feed easily as I stitch...

In order to keep it perfectly flat,

I press the rug after

I add each round of stitching...

Use lots of steam!

It gets bigger quickly...

It is 30 inches in length at this point...

with lots of strips left to sew around.

I am a total of 10 hours into this project...

I am thinking I may have it finished

next Monday

in a couple of hours.

Very FUN and enjoyable!

Cattle in the Snow and Jelly Roll Rug...

We woke up to SNOW this morning...

The calves enjoyed romping around

in the SNOW

After we checked for new calves

and bedded the barns,

I headed for the Quilt Palace

to join up with the Harlan Valley Quilters...

This is my new Monday project @ the Palace:

Jelly Roll Rug

Jelly Roll strips....

I stitched all of the strips together,

end-to-end,

assembly line style

The batting is stitched inside the strips...

I am 4 hours into this project

and it is moving along quickly.

Looking forward to working on it again

next Monday.
