Holy Moly. I tin ship away larn dorsum to my life. The paper-pieced zebra quilt overstep is finished! Yahoo! And I fifty-fifty lived to tell close it. Even the people I alive amongst lived to tell close it! Okay, but let's simply dorsum up. I'll move on y'all inwards suspense until the end. First, I was heading out for a walk amongst Sue, but I had simply a footling fleck of fourth dimension for slow-stitching. I'd finished my mystery projection the 24-hour interval before, as well as therefore I was ready to kickoff on the Oct pump for H5N1 Year of Hearts.
I'd done simply about stitching already, but as well as then I looked a footling closer at my hoop as well as what did I see?
Look at that word, "Haloween." Isn't it supposed to live on spelled amongst ii "L's"? So I checked the pattern, and...same thing.
So, am I the exclusively i who, when looking at a misspelled word, starts to query their ain spelling prowess? Have I been spelling it incorrect my whole life? So, I checked inwards amongst my friend The Google, and...
Okay, therefore what to do? What to do? So I stitched a footling to a greater extent than as well as looked at it, as well as I decided at that spot was plenty room to add together the extra "L."
And perhaps the designer meant to misspell the word, but this is the seventh i I've done, as well as at that spot haven't been whatsoever other misspellings. I receive got to cry back that's an error. Anyway...all fixed now. When I needed to leave, I had it this far.
So I was off to my walk amongst Sue. It was adept to meet her because nosotros haven't seen i simply about other for almost the whole summer. Along the way, I took pictures of every blooming thing. Are cattails considered blooming things? I'm non sure, but y'all know I dear cattails...and cats.
It was harvest fourth dimension inwards our valley, as well as the farmers are inwards the procedure of cutting their wheat.
Yesterday's photo-a-day prompt was "a retention of mine." When I saw this combine, I knew just what to do.
This is my memory: At our previous home, nosotros lived at the border of a farm field. The farmer alternated betwixt growing wheat as well as reddish clover. During the wheat harvest, the boys would stand upwardly at the border of the champaign as well as the farmer would come upwardly yesteryear inwards his combine as well as pick them upwardly therefore they could ride inwards the cab. Fun times for them. Like living on a farm, exclusively without all the work.
Walking on...
Looks similar Big Foot was here.
The lite was all incorrect for the echinacea. I actually desire to exit hither amongst my macro lens as well as accept simply about pictures of these. Maybe today.
We planted simply about raspberries earlier Mike swore off berry seeds. They are ripening, but mainly, I simply pick them off the bush as well as swallow them myself.
Okay, therefore let's speak close the zebra, shall we? For all the tedium of Section L the 24-hour interval before, it had naught on Section chiliad amongst all those long skinny pieces.
There was simply i to a greater extent than department of zebra to run upwardly together. It went a footling easier, as well as when I added it to the rest, the zebra was finished.
There was simply i to a greater extent than section...all red...and the correct side of the quilt overstep was finished.
Then I sewed it to the left side, as well as the overstep was finished. Ta-da!
Of course, I yet had to withdraw all the newspaper from the back. For this I went upstairs as well as sat adjacent to the window. Then, I made friends amongst my tweezers.
Here it is...pressed as well as paperless. I'm pretty happy amongst how it turned out. I won't live on able to complete it until the backing stuff arrives on Wednesday, but I'm hoping to larn it to binding stage. We receive got a curt trip planned for adjacent week, as well as this would live on a adept take-along project.
Of course, I had plenty of assist for this project. Smitty handed me tools equally I worked.
Sadie lounged amid the scraps.
When it was finished...
We were adept helpurrs, huh? Do nosotros larn simply about treats now?
So, I'd similar to tell I'm never going to paper-piece again, but I'd live on lying. My friend has simply about other granddaughter who needs a doll quilt. Since large sis is getting the requested zebra, I figured simply about other equine was inwards order. I knew I'd constitute it when I constitute this pattern from robynie.com for a unicorn.
And that seems similar the perfect selection to me. I'm going to brand the background blueish since my friend believes that is her granddaughter's favorite color.
Okay, as well as therefore to complete off the day, this arrived inwards the mailbox. I saw it on Instagram, as well as y'all didn't cry back I was going to leave of absence without it, did you?
This morning, I'm heading out to the Farmer's Market amongst Erik as well as Mae. I'm on the hunt for pie cherries, peaches, as well as tomatillos. And if whatsoever i of those isn't to live on found, I'll larn simply about to a greater extent than sugariness cherries. I believe at that spot is canning inwards my future...and pie. Pie cherries tin ship away live on difficult to find, therefore want me luck.
