Thank you

Donation quilt done

The floral fabrics for this quilt are from Kafee Fasset collection and the light gray is from a jelly roll; and all these fabrics came from the CPBee fabric bins for donation quilts. 

I quilted it using Amelie Scott Designs from the book Custom Quilt on Your Embroidery Machine. The pattern is SG Feather on the blocks and a feather sprig probably from Oesd patterns on the sashings. 

Another quilt on the floor photo. It is what it is. 

Row quilt challenge

These blocks, now a quilt, have been in my WIP for a while. 

The blocks were made by the members of the CPBee for me. I gave the fabrics and an approximate dimension of the finished row; and the person had a month to complete the blocks. The picture was taken with the quilt on the floor, which is never a good thing. But it is beautiful.

 I used a 80/20 blend batting, Glide thread, and a quilt in the hoop pattern by Amelie Scott from the Edge to edge Quilting Jumbo package I called "Garden."                            

About funny husband and such

These days of social distancing are trying to say the least. 

It helps when DH has a weird sense of humor.

This note was left on my design wall a few days back. 

The best part is that he helped me with organizing my studio. (which lasted a whole few hours).😊

Sour Cream Coffee Cake

I have made this cake for the past 33 years.
Since this is a place I can always search for my "stuff" I am posting the recipe

Sour Cream Coffee Cake (Kathleen recipe)
