Green Clergy Stole | Gleaned Blocks

Gleaning some Free Style Cobblestone blocks

 created another day were just enough for Side 1 

of this Clergy Stole. 

I'm curious, what percentage of pastors regularly wear a Clergy Stole. 

Does yours?

Matching Pillow Shams | Free Style Cobblestone Blocks

When I made my bed quilt in 2018 

I had no intentions to made matching pillow shams. 

I used some premade ones that never looked right.

 So, today I began creating more Free Style Cobblestone blocks. I

 plan to hand quilt them.

39th Anniversary | Day 195 A Block A Day Challenge

Me & My Guy

I'm thankful for 39 years of marriage today and how fitting that I would finish 
our new queen sized bed quilt today - Day 195 A Block A Day Challenge with hubby's favorite verse on the label. "As for me and my house we will serve the LORD - Joshua 24:15"

 For our honeymoon, we camped in a borrowed Popup throughout the Blue Ridge mountains and joked of how we were just going to stay and have our stuff sent to us. So we made plans to move here and God has allowed us to here for many years now. And yes, I took hand sewing on our honeymoon.

Art In The Airport - Asheville | Day 191 A Block A Day Challenge

A friend sent me this photo of 2 or my 2 Honoring Women

Art Quilts in the Asheville Art in the Airport. 

Made it to the 3rd "corner" for Day 191 A Block A Day Challenge.

 I'm glad I chose to use a pieced binding and like the contrast with the body of the quilt.

Curvy Quilt "Corners" | Day 190 A Block A Day Challenge

Curvy quilt "corners" are not necessarily easier than squared ones 

but I do like the effect much better. 

Day 190 includes the 2nd "corner" and a decent distance on the 3rd side. 

Slow progress is still progress.

2nd Corner In Sight | Day 189 A Block A Day Challenge

2nd corner of the bed quilt is in sight for Day 189 A Block A Day Challenge.

 The first corner proved to be a bit trickier than expected 

so I will try something different for the 2nd one.

Bear Poses & Rounded Corners | Day 186 A Block A Day Challenge.

Although the bear appears to be posing for a photo,

he's actually watching my dog, Susa before he climbs the oak tree. 

Nearing the 1st "corner" with the batik pieced binding. I

 chose to round off the corners since I prefer that to squared corners.

Hand Sewing The Binding | Day 186 A Block A Day Challenge

Hand sewing the binding for Day 186 A Block A Day Challenge 

following the design of the large blocks on the reverse side of my bed quilt. 

This could be accomplished on the machine 

yet I prefer the look of handwork even though 

it will take a few days to complete.
