Ulmer quilt frame

ta daaaaaa....... its new.... its compact... its pretty sturdy... its light weight.. Its on the straight of grain... it has an arm reach of stitching space.. I can move it myself... its easy!... it fits my lil house...........................................................................................................................................................

and TheDiva got a lesson from MOM.. The lil twerp likes to digg/ fluff the batting.. tear it and scatter it around the room........... NOT Cool.... she is NOT in the pic because she is sitting in MR's chair........ away.... pouting

Plans !

I'm on a misssion to clean / tidy a few things , run the vac ! ,,, swish a broom.

I have fabric on the dining room table for borders to 2 tops started last week...

Next project: is to pack up a large set of Willow china for the new bride and groom.. We gifted them a new china hutch for wedding.... now On a mission to FILL IT !...... so news paper and boxes are on my horizon this week.

While blogging around this week. I saw THE PERFECT quilt frame. called The ULmer Quilt Frame..... has square corners and ,, smaller size,,, folds up,,,,,, Not bulky like my round one........ not wobbly like my spindle saw horse one...... perfect... MR said GET IT......... so I did !

So That idea led to makeing some space and clearing out special place to set it... Im thinking moving a desk that is full of junk.... pitch the junk,,, toss the desk..., really only need a spot for keys and sun glasses.... a basket for the odd drawer of pictures..... I have a plan,,,,,,, see if it works !

Im tired of JUNK.... PITCH ~~~

Navy and Purple Good Deeds

Ive been sewing for a couple days with my own mini marathon. Here is Two tops done so far !

This is a navy pansy print from Nancy's donation box. She had many yards in there !

I think some is a Hoffman, it has lines of gold in the print.

The purples are a variety of batiks sorted out of the bundles from the red and blue quilts.

The borders are just 'add till it gets to 42" size'

Included in the use of her yardage, I cut the back side from the pansy print too.

I still have several rectangles.. and just found couple more purple strips so Im thinking ONE MORE... I still have 3 to 5 yds of the Navy prints to use up also.....

Then I found some green strips..... another? with hmmmmm large florals?? see what the day brings !! Im sewing till 8 pm.

keep the machines humming ~~K
