Trying Sewing....

Good Evening Internet Friends!!!

"Sew"  today kiddo and I did sewing as a learning opportunity when his online school work was completed.

He learned how to turn on and set up the pedal.  How to thread the machine and select a stitch.  Loading the bobbin.  Then I had him practice some straight seams and then curved.  After that he cut out a flannel panel that I had with intention to make a dog toy:

After stuffing this little birdie and sewing it closed kiddo decided that he would keep the toy because it was soft!

Hope this inspires your own creativity and wishing you all the BEST Day EVER Thursday tomorrow.  Stay Safe.

Horse Quilt

Good Evening Internet Friends!

I have been delinquent in my blogging as I have worked twenty four hours of over time this week!!!  So tired, but not tired enough to miss the Red Deer Quilt Show yesterday.

My son and I road tripped to see it, and I got the remainder of the horse fabric that I need to make this horse quilt for my son:

A couple of weeks back we had gone to Prairie Points Quilt Shop to pick up my block of the month. While there we found this horse quilt panel and all these fun horse/western fabrics.  They were so fun, I had to get them.
This is what I chose to do with this panel and the fabrics, but to make the outer horse fabric border 9 1/2"
like I wanted, I had to get more fabric.
So, a quick email to Lynn, and at the show I was able to get the remainder and late last night I finished the quilt!
Pretty proud of my accomplishment; making a quilt all on my own!
Hope this inspires your own creativity...
