The Adventures of Tim and Vanella. Monday, March 21, 2011. Last week for spring break Tim and I went to. Vegas for a couple days just to get away and relax from work. And school. It was really fun, and the weather was. In the eighty's which I love! We stayed at the Luxor which is a big pyramid and I've been. Wanting to stay there because I love Egyptian stuff. This is a view from just outside our room. This is the outside of the hotel. This is one of the statues inside the hotel that was really cool.

Common Threads: Texture
http://commonthreadsquiltbee.blogspot.com/2010/08/texture.html
Thursday, August 5, 2010. There was so much fabric I decided to make two blocks -. Hope that is ok! This was so fun - such gorgeous shades of solids and then deciding on. What pops of color to add to it. I used some scraps from. Far, Far Away 2 to add another dimension of texture with the linen. I'm mailing them off tomorrow. So excited to see this!

Common Threads: The Red Cross Quilt
http://commonthreadsquiltbee.blogspot.com/2010/08/red-cross-quilt.html
Thursday, August 19, 2010. The Red Cross Quilt. I started with this wonderful embroidery and made it a focal point.I adored that teeny tiny cross too. I planned something totally different when I first thought about this project, but it evolved into this and I'm pretty happy with it. I had another bee make crosses for me as well, and of course they got all mixed up in the process. I'm working on making this two sided with another cross design on the back. Oh wow Jacquie - this is absolutely gorgeous!

The Adventures of Tim and Vanella. Monday, February 28, 2011. Glimpse of our House. So I know everyone is waiting to see our house. I didn't want.

Far It's taken us longer than we expected to get everything done,. But its starting to feel more like our home rather than. The persons house that lived here before us. This is the before picture.

Common Threads: July 2010
http://commonthreadsquiltbee.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 26, 2010. Jess and Sarah's blocks. First up is my block for Jess. I had intended on making a block similar to the one circled above. My width guestimation was way off, so the beginnings of that block turned into the center of my final block and a little strip in one of the outer edges. Here's an unobstructed shot of the block. Here's the final block. I guess I was trying to create "texture" with my blurry photography! Thanks so much for participating in the bee this round, everyone! Everyone...

Monday, February 7, 2011. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Twelve quilters from eleven different states come together to sew in a virtual quilting bee. Each Quilter is assigned a month. That quilter picks out their fabric, purchases it, cuts it into smaller portions and sends it to the 12 other quilters. They also include directions to each of the 12 other quilters as to what they would like the blocks to be like. The 12 quilters do the stitching. The quilter then assembles their blocks into a finsihed quilt.
