Where Was I? (photo heavy)

At our annual Craft Show/Bake Sale!

This is a Mosaic Crochet blanket. It's a technique I would love to learn. She might give a course next year. 

Another different technique. It's a kind of a manual weaving. The blanket fabric is bought and you have to weave the design. Just gorgeous! 

Someone had fun dressing up dolls in crochet dresses. 

Some of you might have done a Snow Days quilt. (I think that's the name. Let me know if I'm wrong please.) Almost all of us had seen one or two. I've seen many in blue, beige and red. It's the first one I see in black. Wow! It was awesome. 

Lise even extended the embroidery in the border. SO gorgeous! 

I baked two French Silk Pie for the bake sale. Now, the boys are asking for their share. I'll make one more this weekend. :^D

Each seller has to give a little something to add to the basket for the door prize. 

My son won! 

So many wonderful things in there; there were many sellers this year. 

I even have my own little Never-Die cactus. Whoop Whoop! 

The Red sewing didn't go as planned but then again, that's the story of my life! 

One lonely Stained Glass got assembled but it's not even finished. 

One more April Fool in red (the 5 others are waiting by the sewing machine), and one in scrap galore. 

In my last post, I mentioned being hesitant to use multi-coloured print in my RSC blocks. I got a few comments from people saying they feel the same way. It got my brain churning. As coincidence always happens this way, Cynthia at Quilting from More Fun than Housework, is also trying to use up the prints from her stash. She started a Snowball quilt with prints. See it here. She also had a quilt sent to her with giant geese. It's a great quilt. See that one on this post.

I commented that I love to do 9-Patch with prints because I can use 2 prints. The white fabrics are usually scarce around here. 

I want to make another Framed 9-Patch quilt. Unfortunately, I have miscalculated this one and don't have enough to frame it. :^(  I want to use the "dark" neutral in this one. We'll see how it goes. 

I am also doing April Fool with prints. (see photo two pictures up) I even used the instruction section from a panel. Heck! why not? Other ways to use up the prints are in the centre of stars, Puss In the Corner or a simple Barn Raising style with 5" squares or even bigger. We are only limited by our own imagination on this one. So, let's use those prints, ladies. 😉

The end of April brought a photo session with the Red Scraps. 

At the beginning of the month and ... 

the end of April. My friends are very generous people. Lol. 

Now, on to green. Do I have green? Yes, Ma'am! But I'll keep it for another post. 

Catch you then. 

Take care everyone.
