More of the Museum

I haven't got much of anything done as fare as sewing goes. I think the weather has something to do with it. The heat and hum. is bad right now.
The photos are of things in the Indian room at the museum.
This is just part of the arrowheads on display.

More Fibers To Trade.

I decided to do some more fiber trading and I took 3 yarns and combined them to make one great yarn. I took 5 1/2 yard pieces and Tye them to my bobbin and put my peddle to the metal and wound them together. I love greens and blues together so that's what I did the most. I think they turned out nice. For a quick trade. It will be fun to see what I get back.

I have all my Dotee Sisters home now from the trade . I love everyone of them. They are all so different. This was a fun little trade!

A Little Trade and Where I Work

I am doing a little trade of fibers and these are mine. I had to send some of my favorite color lime green. I thought it would be nice to show you part of the museum. This is the kitchen area and some depression dishes we have. I will have to take some more photos of things so you all can see it.
I love pretty colored glass.

What to make with left overs?

I had a little time this morning so I made a journal cover out of the left overs I had from the quiltlet I made. I will send it to Ann the person that sent my the package from her stash and a remembrance of our swap. I could not decide which was the front or the back so she can use it ether way which ever she likes.

Memory's

Hi, I was going Thur my photos and came across this one of my Grandma Rev as we called her. Her name was Reva. I had a Swap your stash package that reminded me of her come in the mail this month. The fabrics reminded me of kitchen prints and curtains. She cooked on a wood stove when I was a kid. She loved her stove and didn't want to get a new modern one. I cooked my first egg on the wood stove and in the winter got dresses behind it to keep warm. It's a good memory. My Grandma cooked 3 BIG meals a day with biscuits and grave at every meal. She was a very loving person and cared for everyone with her cooking. She was all ways feeding everyone no matter what time you came in she would fix you something to eat.

Heart Strings Quilt

I got another binding done for Jennie's Heart Strings. To me this looks more like a kids quilt but I am sure who ever gets it will love it.
