| Whirly |
Some quilt designs
express a feeling of motion, and these two fit that description. You
can almost feel the breezes blowing.
Little windmill
blocks in red, turquoise, black, and blue contrast nicely with crisp
white. They are set with light blue dotted sashing to complete
Whirly, a 35” square quilt bound with black & white dots. It's quilted with a decorative
cross stitch pattern along the sashing and through the centers of the
windmills. It sure brightens up my dining room table.

| Summer Pinwheels |
Cheery pinwheel
blocks are placed in diagonal rows with white sashing and a row of
white blocks, creating lots of open space. Bright yellow and orange
prints contrast well with the cooler greens and blues.
Summer
Pinwheels is 44” x 54” and quilted with white thread,
creating swirls on the pinwheels and square maze outlines on the
blanks. It is framed with a bright blue random mini-dot that I also
used for backing and binding.
Over the weekend,
I took advantage of cooler temperatures to tackle weeds in my flower
beds. All this time I've spent sewing has given the weeds a chance
to take over. I may have to use a flame thrower or a 50 gallon drum
of Roundup.

Fake people are
like weeds.
They stunt your
growth.
Remove them from
your life,
and you'll have space
to flourish.
