My prays goes out to all families that have lost some one in this war.<br />
<br />
Yes it has been awhile since my last blog. I have just been down and out on the quilting and blogging these last few months. Trying to find my quilt mojo or a quilt fairy to hit me in the head with her quilting wand to get my butt in gear.<br />
<br />
Since I was not going any were or doing anything this weekend, I made myself go into the sewing room and tune out the house guess (long story on that). I have project to do, but just have not got started on them. I feel good that I was able to complete or almost complete several projects.<br />
<br />
Since I have several baby showers to attend (they really was working out this long winter year), I made several baby burp clothes. I got the free pattern off of Craftsy.<br />

They were so easy to make and fast. I used bath towels I got from Walmart for the backing. I will most likely make more this week depending on how many more baby showers I will be attending.</div>

My Quilting Bee (Wee Bee Quilters) will be going on retreat in August and our Retreat Coordinator Carolyn Burgess it the best person for this job. She is already planning our fun weekend with projects to do before we even get there. One of the project is that each member who is attending is to make a house block. We picked which house block we wanted to make so all will be different, I got the tepee. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Although this is a very easy block to do, I had to have the quilt fairy hit me in the head with her wand to give me a better idea how I wanted this block to look and find just the right fabric in my stach to make this block come to life.</div>

The background fabric was brought back from Italy by Tom's sister about 3 or 4 years ago. I had plan to make a skirt or jacket from it, and still might do that it was a lot of fabric so I did not think that taken a 12-1/2" piece out of it would do any harm. It has a desert fill to it. I plan to add something to the else to the right side of it not sure what, maybe a buffalo or arrows. This is do next week so I better get it together. Carolyn plans to put the house quilt together and one of us lucky participants might just win it.</div>

The other project that I got started on was a Mommy & Me quilt for a friend of my son's, who had a baby girl last year. He plans to take it with him to Boston when he goes up in the next couple of months.</div>

The elephants are appliqued on with a blanket stitch. I used charm squares I won from Pineapple Fabrics at the Atlantic Quilt Show in February. I just need to add the applique balloons and embroider the balloon strings tonight. Then add the top and bottom boarder strips, then send it out to have it quilted. I love piecing, but do not have the talent for quilting or the space.</div>

I am so glad that I took the time out to let you all know that I am still here. Life has been kind of boring lately. Nothing fund is going on around here. No walking toilets , no flying tooth, and no Tom decorating the front door for Christmas. </div>

I'm trying to get back into the swing of things. Tonight I worked on the Wings block. I tell you it was a poor effort at best.<br />
<br />

Working with 1'1/2 " squares is and effort for me. Then I got my seam allowances wrong from the start. I started off with a 1/4" then some were a scant 1/4" each, so you know the seams weren't matching, but I forced them too. Then I starched it into submission. By the time I finish this block I was ready to throw it out the window (that is if the window was open, still cold out). I also did not like my fabric choices. The butterflies are o.k. but the 4 patches need a little work. Need to look through my stash a little more.<br />
<br />
I also need to find out how to link these blocks to the Splendid Sampler. I have read how to link, but my mind does not wrap around it. Not concentrating, brain still on vacation. I might have to wait for Linda (eat, sleep, quilt) to get back from Atlantic City to walk me through this.<br />
<br />
Here is little Asia taken her first steps. She is on her way here, so I have to clean up my sewing so she want get into in fabric or needles on the floor.<br />

As pointed out by my dear fried Linda (<a href="http://eatsleepquilt.blogspot.com/">eat, sleep quilt</a>), yesterday was the last day I posted which will make it 1 year. I have a lot of excuses why I have not posted, put what is the point. One thing for sure my brain went on vacation, and my body seemed to go along with it. With the new grandbaby in the mix, it was getting hard to think of projects to do and things to write about. I am hoping for a long posting year in 2016, SO I AM BACK PEOPLE.<br />
<br /><br />
I am coming back slow as a turtle (The Slow Quilter) get it. The first thing I am participating in is <a href="http://lwlink3.linkwithin.com/api/click?format=go&jsonp=vglnk_14573707039169&key=8a69ede45b8445f6b533712ba9899ffb&libId=ili8v5az0100r7tw000DAoy619bjwb2j8&loc=http%3A%2F%2Fquiltinanotshell.blogspot.com%2F2016%2F03%2Fhooked-on-splendid-sampler-qal.html&v=1&out=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.thesplendidsampler.com%2F2016%2F&title=Quilt%20in%20a%20not-Shell%3A%20Hooked%20on%20the%20Splendid%20Sampler%20QAL&txt=The%20Splendid%20Sampler" target="_blank"><span style="color: #19258e;">The Splendid Sampler</span></a>, a quilt-along with Pat Sloan and Jane Davis. I am looking through my scraps to work on the different quilt block samples that the group is turning out. here is my first finish, the folding block station. I think this was a bonds block, not worry, I will get the the different blocks soon. Really I will.<br />

It was a great trip, I only brought 1, yes 1 fat quarter buddle.. YAH ME!!!, I only brought 2 rulers (may be I will give them a try with my Sampler blocks), and some other small items. I was a good girl. As we all are these days, I am on a fabric diet, I have so-much that I have not used, that I need to take the time and pull them together for a quilt before Thomas sends them to Good Will (His been cleaning the basement lately, and my fabric seems to pop up when is doing that). Must protect my fabric at all cost.<br />
<br /><br />
I am at work writing this post so I must go now. Look forward to seeing more often. I will be have a late birthday give-a-way by the end of March or right after Easter, so please come back to see me.<br />

With cold weather and waiting for the baby to come. The Drs. wanted to wait another day before inducing labor, so they did not do that until after 12:00 am. I went home since I had been sitting at the hospital all morning with my daughter. Went back the next morning waiting for her to dilate more, which did not happen to late that evening. They were going to break her water, but she told them to wait until after she watch Empire that came on at 9:00. Yah right. I am ready for this baby to get here and she wants to wait a watch a TV show. I remember when I was having her I was watching Good Times. </font></p> <p><font size="4">Anyway, please let me introduce you to my grand-daughter Asia Nicole, borne Feb. 18th at 11:37 pm, weighing 7lbs –6.2oz.

It has been a long road to this final day of the “We Support You” blog hop. There have been many thoughtful creations and heartfelt stories of those who have suffered lost and survived cancer. There is always more that we all can do to support this deadly disease. <br />
<br />
Before I get started I would like to thank <a href="http://www.sewwequilt.com/">Madame Samm</a> and <a href="http://scrapatches.blogspot.ca/">Pat</a> for a great hop. They have brought all who have been following this hop more aware of cancer and the people it effects. In other word they have put a face to it. <br />

She always has a positive attitude even when things are not very bright. Surviving is her family’s motto. She wrote this piece for me. <br />

<b><u><span style="font-size: medium;">Living with family/friends with Breast Cancer who have survived this BATTLE</span></u></b> <br />
<b><u><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></u></b>
My cousin/sister Angela Minor is a fighter, this year she will be a 6 year survivor. When she told me she had this disease, it made me sick to my stomach and I don’t know why. I questioned GOD and he said to me that this is the devils work, but I am the HIGHEST HEALER and we are going to work this out together. He did just that and removed the cancer and she is a survivor still standing strong. My Aunt Barbara-Ann is also a fighter, this year it will be 4 years for her. She has not complained, not one time, she took into consideration what the doctors told her she needed to do and did it. She told me that she and GOD had this, and if her niece Angie could go through this and fight and become a survivor she knew she could do the same thing, she is a fighter who survived this terrible disease. Aunt Barbara-Ann’s daughter, Darlisa was diagnosed about 4 months ago. She told the doctors, if my cousin and mother can beat this battle she knew it would not stop her. She had surgery on Feb. 2, 2015 and is doing well. Now, tell me I don’t have 3 STRONG WOMAN. <br />

You got to have GOD, loving and caring family and friends to keep you fighting. These three ladies had this team and much more. They had faith and they were determine to fight, they never gave up. <br />

We have done fish fries, block parties, bus trips and we even do the AVON walk for cancer every year. So to show our support for the survivors and for the survivors that fought but lost the battle with cancer we went as far as creating our own logo/slogan. <br />
<br />
<br />
I thank you Tracie, for your most encouraging story of faith, family and courage. “We Support You”, and all of the families that might suffer from this most deadly disease.<br />
<br />
In my support to you and my second family, I dedicate this quilt to you. Stand Strong and Surviving. <br />
<br />
Before I show you my unfinished quilt, I must tell you that I left my camera at work. No one in this house has a camera but me. So the pictures are a little crappie since I had to use my cell phone. I tried to spruce them up with some editing, but crappie is crappie. <br />

Yes, this is my second blog of the year, one right behind the other, surprise. As I was catching up on the blogs, I ran into one titled “A Little Support Here” by Carol Swift of <a href="http://www.justletmequilt.com/" target="_blank">Just Let Me Quilt</a>. My first thought was, “I hope nothing is wrong and I was will to give her all the support I could. My second thought was I could use another support bra. Don’t laugh I have to pay $65 to $75 for a good support bra to hold these girls up.</font></p> <p><font size="4">As I read her <a href="http://www.justletmequilt.com/" target="_blank">post</a> I realized it was about supporting breast cancer. Yes, I have had a friend who has pass from this, I even had a scare sometime back. It was a post of a Blog Hop to support breast cancer, and as always Mdm Samm has done it again. I left a comment on Carol’s blog saying how I wish I could join them on this most thoughtful hop and that I would be cheering them on.</font></p> <p><font size="4">Pat from <a href="http://scrapatches.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Life In The Scrapatch</a> saw my comment and sent me a e-mail to see if I would like to still participate in the Hop (she is head cheerleader). I was so happy, I almost jumped out of my chair (I am at work) and did the Moon Walk (note to self, no Moon Walking, bad knee). So I am in the hop and if this does not get my Groove Back nothing will. I’m So HAPPY is playing in my head right now.</font></p> <p><font size="4">The Blog Hop starts Jan. 29 – Feb. 11 and I will will be on the last day, and would you know it, the theme is a BRA, pattern done by Mdm Samm (wish I had the aptitude to make my own bra) . Nothing like getting the old creative juices flowing. I will be looking through my stash of fabrics thinking of what I want to make. Oh how I am jumping for joy (note to self, no jumping, might fall).</font></p> <p><font size="4">So, you will see me blogging a little bit more and I like to thank all of you who have missed me the last couple of months.</font></p> <p><font size="4">Keep your needles sharp and your foot on the peddle.</font></p> <p><font size="4">The Slow Quilter (Felicia)</font></p> The Slow Quilterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11050851198391657826noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523216276020125931.post-59911851826211926432015-01-21T19:11:00.001-05:002015-01-21T19:11:05.249-05:00Desperately Seeking Susan????<p> </p> <p><font size="4">First I would like to say HAPPY NEW YEAR to all the blogging community. Yes I am late with this. Yes I have been MIA for awhile, you know how it can be sometime when family and life gets in the way.</font></p> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-kDsZeVKPd8E/VMBAFenZyTI/AAAAAAAAJBc/W3u4e0BYUb4/s1600-h/desperately%252520seeking%252520susan%25255B2%25255D.jpg"><img title="desperately seeking susan" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; float: left; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="desperately seeking susan" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-_bt39NGYVDw/VMBAF326tBI/AAAAAAAAJBg/HlZLQrtqVNs/desperately%252520seeking%252520susan_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" align="left" height="221"></a></p> <p><font size="4">I am not really Desperately Seeking Susan (Madonna), although I am a Material Girl (get it). O.K., o.k. that was not that funny. I am Desperately Seeking The Slow Quilter (Felicia), me.</font></p> <p><font size="4">I have some how misplaced myself mentally. I don’t know if I’m “scratching my watch of winding my ass” (from 9 to 5 Dolly Parton) After cleaning up the sewing room and living room of all my quilt stuff I have not been able to get back into the swing of things. I have been doing a lot of crocheting and teaching myself how to knit again. I have been working on a sock. That’s right a sock, just one, I am almost to the heel. No picture yet, don’t want to stop writing this blog or I might not get back to it.</font></p> <p><font size="4">With the New Year coming in, and quilt meetings, I think I might just find myself again. I already have a couple of challenges to look forward to and finishing up some of my UFOs. Oh yah, I have a new grandbaby coming in February, so look at all the baby quilts and outfits I can make with all this fabric.</font></p> <p><font size="4">Just maybe, I will put on some Madonna tunes and Vogue through the house or roll around on the floor. (To self, no rolling around on floor, might not be able to get back up). Ok talking to myself again, bad habits.</font></p> <p><font size="4">I also have been watching a lot of the ID and Forensic File channel on TV. My sons think I am trying to get away with MURDER. Like murdering them or their father. Can't wait for that show to start (How To Get Away With Murder).</font> </p> <p><font size="4">Anyway, I might be getting my Groove back (must be since I keep coming up with all these movie names (How Stella Got Her Groove Back).</font></p> <p><font size="4">O.K. I will stop, need finish cooking dinner before I burn it. So until I blog again, keep your seam rippers sharp, and your stitches 1/4 inch and I will blog with you later.</font></p> <p><font size="4">The Ever So Slow Quilter (Felicia)</font></p> The Slow Quilterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11050851198391657826noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523216276020125931.post-79305938627880992132014-11-06T19:48:00.001-05:002014-11-06T19:48:05.273-05:00In The Mail - Bow Ties & What's Going On<p><font size="4">Now that things seem to be getting back to normal around here. More since Tom is home (he is really in the way). I think at one point that he really had to think about what he was going to do now, since his mother and father passed. For the last 2 or 3 years he was almost their care giver and with them 24/7 when they were hospitalized. Now he is home more and starting to move things around. More on that later.</font></p> <p><font size="4">Anyway, I am get some things straighten out that I have been “SLOW” getting out. I had some packages I needed to mail out to some of my blog followers which I did yesterday. They should be getting them shortly, and yes that is my junky office desk. One of the packages, the big one I forgot to add a note and got so busy at work I did not have time to send it. So I am sure the package will get there before the note, but she will know it is from me (I hope). I am hoping that they ladies will share their gifts with all of you. If not, well to each their own. </font></p> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-q4K-rR7ajd8/VFwWgEnlw6I/AAAAAAAAIuw/VDKe_AhflGY/s1600-h/mail%2525201%25255B8%25255D.jpg"><img title="mail 1" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="mail 1" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-7ELJdU4wUJQ/VFwWgqW-CjI/AAAAAAAAIu4/CpON1g2tOt0/mail%2525201_thumb%25255B12%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="296" height="328"></a><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-Fps2TAiR0Ns/VFwWheG9-rI/AAAAAAAAIu8/7K2KKzEp8Ac/s1600-h/mail%2525202%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img title="mail 2" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="mail 2" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-DSVZz5MAw4Y/VFwWhiep2pI/AAAAAAAAIvI/HccCOSyy9zM/mail%2525202_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="331" height="355"></a></p> <p><font size="4">Also I have gotten in a little sewing since the Black Cat Crossing blog hop.

Seems like you really need to know someone to get a pair of home made socks these days. Even some of my close quilting friends are knitting these days from socks to sweaters, to shawls. If knitting needles do not work out for me, I can always crochet me a pair.</font></p> <p><font size="4">So that Is all for now. For those ladies who I hope is still reading by blog.

After our last hop, I took a little break to work on my bathroom. In the process of this break with sad news Tom’s mother passed ( his father pass just this July), so my life was a little upside down from there with no time to sew. I felt it was too late to ask to be put back to a later date to post so I rush in to finish at least one of the projects I was think of doing. </font></p> <p><font size="4">So let us get this show on the road.

I best not look at it too long or I will be rushing to get something put together. </font></p> <p><font size="5">Me and some of my girlfriends are heading down to Fredericksburg, MD this Friday to the Original Sew & Quilting Expo.

I had Tom to call the Plummer to take a look at it. </font></p> <p><font size="5">It was more of a problem then either of us thought, after sneaking the tub and the toilet which was all together $300 (hit my fabric money pretty hard) the flush valve spring was broken. Because this is a special type of mechanism it can only be ordered. The piece is only $14.00 and will take a week on the fastest delivery they have.</font></p> <p><font size="5">I feel like flushing me down the sewer. I will be going to the basement during the day and once I in bed at night and have to go I will have to do it the old fashion way.

And let me tell you I really was rushing. With the change in the weather cold coming on, I was falling fast and did not think I was going to finish in time. But like the slow person I am, I rush to the finish line and made it on time.</font></p> <p><font size="4"></font> </p> <p><font size="4">Before we get to my rush hour creation I would like to thank as always Madm Samm who always seem to have something for us to do, and Carol from <a href="http://www.justletmequilt.com/" target="_blank">Just Let Me Quilt</a> who will be cheering us on every step of the way.</font></p> <p><font size="4">This hop is about rush hour, and not just the fabric. Studio E came out with some great rush hour fabric, but we did not really have to use it just as long as the fabrics were red, white, black or gray. I was lucky enough to get my hands of some of the fabric and used it for my creation and here it is. My Rush Hour Weave bag.</font></p> <p><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-8cai3CuCpjc/VCCXbk3xySI/AAAAAAAAIRQ/2S0dV52LJJc/s1600-h/bag%2525201%25255B7%25255D.jpg"><img title="bag 1" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="bag 1" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-cyNntENucZU/VCCXcJkDeGI/AAAAAAAAIRY/Bztq1O37OXM/bag%2525201_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="534" height="484"></a></p> <p><font size="4">When you are rushing around trying to get out of the house, you need to grab that rush hour bag and head to the bus stop for work, or to the hair dresser (which I really need to go), or to the fabric store for your next fix on fabric. This pattern is call Breezy Weave Bags by Aunties Two. It is has instructions for a small and large bag. It is not a hard bag to put together once you weave in the strips and I enjoyed making it and will make another sometime soon.</font></p> <p><font size="4">I think my biggest problem was sewing in the side gussets but I seem to have muddle through it with flying colors.</font></p> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-g61O7WhSMtw/VCCXckeOt0I/AAAAAAAAIRg/pDGgie3ok6Q/s1600-h/bag4%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img title="bag4" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; float: left; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="bag4" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-MffULuljJhI/VCCXdN6mKHI/AAAAAAAAIRs/NyyyWS8-HLg/bag4_thumb%25255B7%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="287" align="left" height="484"></a></p> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-gIFrYz6i2C0/VCCXdpAU6rI/AAAAAAAAIR0/jQC4cRrkKj8/s1600-h/bag%2525201-2%25255B9%25255D.jpg"><img title="bag 1-2" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="bag 1-2" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-X02EblcHKgw/VCCXeDAd57I/AAAAAAAAIR4/taq6kEerLSM/bag%2525201-2_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="577" height="500"></a><font size="4"><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-ei96m3UXCJs/VCCXeiHwpRI/AAAAAAAAISA/lRWRwcKYkdA/s1600-h/bag%2525203%252520-%252520Copy%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img title="bag 3 - Copy" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="bag 3 - Copy" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-v1W7WGQYbH0/VCCXfvAcQoI/AAAAAAAAISI/viQctqcuo6o/bag%2525203%252520-%252520Copy_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="563" height="500"></a><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-9ftsc_ZPyjA/VCCXgZV3RzI/AAAAAAAAISQ/GbS-FIZsvio/s1600-h/bag%2525205%252520-%252520Copy%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img title="bag 5 - Copy" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; float: left; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="bag 5 - Copy" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-7dPIbpliqQ0/VCCXg7Ab3LI/AAAAAAAAISc/fNlIlKhyduk/bag%2525205%252520-%252520Copy_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="364" align="left" height="484"></a></font></p> <p><font size="4">As you can see from above it also had to inside pockets great to carry my Kindle and phone.

I could not find the magazine during the “See you in September Hop” (I thought that Tom had trashed it by mistake). But I found it near the ironing board. This quilt was featured Fons & Porter’s Easy Quilts, Summer 2013 magazine. The designer was Corey Yoder and she also has a blog <a title="http://www.littlemissshabby.com/" href="http://www.littlemissshabby.com/">http://www.littlemissshabby.com/</a>.

Rush Hour. Boy do I have to rush to get this project done. I think I am coming down with a cold and have not been able to work on my project much this week. I am hoping to get it finish this weekend. This hope is being cheered on by Carol Swift of <a href="http://www.justletmequilt.com" target="_blank">Just Let Me Quilt</a> and of course Mdm Samm. I will be showing my project on the first day (wish it was at least two or 3 days latter), but I will work on it the rest of this week and maybe get it finished.</font></p> <p><font size="4">While, I am going to take to aspirin for my fever, and make some hot tea and lemon to head off this cold.</font></p> <p><font size="4">Have a great quilting week</font></p> <p><font size="4">The Slow Quilter (Felicia)</font></p> The Slow Quilterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11050851198391657826noreply@blogger.com3
