Good Morning

Arriving at the beach before the sun comes up

The suns glow peeking through the clouds

The brightening sky

a sandcastle from yesterdays fun

heavy clouds on the horizon

churning clouds making faces

birds coming out to feed

finally the sun breaks through

a small rainbow in the heavy wet clouds

Dune erosion from the heavy surf the night before

A new day

Charitable oppoutunities

Four dress ready for Bolivia.
Lori over at Humble Quilts is going to deliver pillowcase dresses and is asking
for donations.  Send one if you can help.
Happy Sewing, Kim

Learning to use my two new machines

The computer in this Bernina is amazing with tutorials, instructions and so many stitch choices it makes my head spin.....using the featherweight is just plain old sewing....nice to have the choice!

Flags of the American Revolution by Jan Patek

Last year Lori had a sew along we all used Jan Patek's book " Flag of the American Revolution" I used wool whipped stitched onto cotton for my quilt.  Several shirts were used as background for the wool applique,  now I just can not decide on a border or if it needs one.  Opinions?
