Gene Black an Alabama Artist and Quilter: October 2014
http://blog.geneblack.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
My Creative Life - Quilts, Art, Weaving and More. Wednesday, October 29, 2014. Sewing my handwoven fabric. This morning was rainy and gloomy. The rain stopped but it is still gloomy here. I decided to brighten up my day. Did I mention that it was chilly this morning? Well, it was and that helped to inspire me. I have never had a poncho" So I took my fabric and started looking at it (and yes fondling it.). I tried one fabric but it didn't seem right to me. Oh yes, I do like that fabric for this idea.

Little Flower: March 2013

Monday, 25 March 2013. BaD Blocks this week. It's a very quick post from me today, as there are electricity workers in our street and our power will be going off any minute now for 6 hours. Nooooo! I have lots of bookkeeping to do but it needs electricity. I will just have to visit the library and then get on with a bit of hand sewing :). Here are my block a day challenge blocks - deeper green this week. Labels: Block A Day Challenge 2013. Sunday, 17 March 2013. Green for St Patrick's Day! Labels: Block ...

Thursday, 27 December 2012. Days 353 to 362/366. We are getting near the end of our challenge and I have obviously lost count of which day is which.

A much cooler day and perfect to do som...

Little Flower: Blue BaD blocks
http://helly5.blogspot.com/2013/04/blue-bad-blocks.html
Monday, 8 April 2013. I've been working on the blue tones and found it very hard going on my eyes as my cutting board is blue and the lines on my ruler are blue too! Not very good planning on my part. This is a short post as I am about to start a very crazy day of work, 2 dental appointments (yes, 2 ), a quick lunch with my best friend, a webinar and then a much needed yoga class to calm the mind, body and spirit.

Gene Black an Alabama Artist and Quilter: Quilt Angels
http://blog.geneblack.com/p/quilt-angels.html
My Creative Life - Quilts, Art, Weaving and More. It is with a heavy heart that I am writing this. I found out today that the Ogden House youth facility is being closed. Due to state budget issues and lack of funding the facility will not be able to remain open. At this time the board of directors is desperately seeking funding to allow this much needed service to continue. Although with the poor state budget, it is uncertain at this time. It is preferred that you put a label on the quilt. Whether or...

Gene Black an Alabama Artist and Quilter: March 2015
http://blog.geneblack.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
My Creative Life - Quilts, Art, Weaving and More. Saturday, March 28, 2015. I have been making some wall hangings for a consignment gallery. These are woven with purchased wool yarn as the warp. I used some of my handwoven yarns in the weft of the fabric on these hangings. I also added some embellishments. Starting on the left: The first weaving has polished stones added as embellishments. The second one has beads that I made with polymer clay probably 3 or 4 years ago. I can not reply. Links to this post.

My Creative Life - Quilts, Art, Weaving and More. Wednesday, January 28, 2015. Quilt Angels - a Video Thank You. The video has finally been edited and is available to view. This is the program director talking about the Ogden House program AND thanking all of the Quilt Angels and supporters. If you make quilts and can donate one for this great cause, we would love for you to participate this year. The call will go out on my blog later in the year but you can start now. I can not reply.

Little Flower: Final colour of my big BaD Blocks
http://helly5.blogspot.com/2013/04/final-colour-of-my-big-bad-blocks.html
Monday, 29 April 2013. Final colour of my big BaD Blocks. This is the last of the colours/shades of my daughter's leaving home quilt. I am undecided on the smaller border blocks now as the quilt may be big enough without them. I'm off to our local patchwork shop, where my dear friend works, to have a look at a background fabric she thinks might suit. After I have seen that I will decide on the next step. Labels: Block A Day Challenge 2013. 2 May 2013 at 19:44. Good on you Helen! 366 day photo challenge.
