SLOW DOWN
I'm SEW glad you slowed down and stopped by to see my RUSH HOUR Projects. I really got into this lovely fabric and had a Plethora of ideas but not sew much on TIME.
Their Fabric is Red
Gray,Black, and White Too
I Love Studio E Fabrics
How About You??
I call this my TURN TURN TURN Quilt/Duvet Cover
Some of you may remember the song from the 60's
Rushing through our days made me think of this beautiful Scripture
Not very Professional, but I just couldn't crop out those sweet little Granddaughter legs peeking out at the bottom of this quilt.
She was trying so hard to help Grandmama show off the Turn Turn Turn Quilt/Duvet Cover. 9 yr. old Emma comes to sew with me most every Sunday Afternoon.
Hand Embroidered Scripture...Ecclesiastes 3:1
RUFFLES
Fabric Box & Pin Cushion
MORNING COFFEE CUP COZY
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE???
LOL!!! I HAD TO SHOW YOU MY FIRST GLASS COZY!!
It suits my personality so I'm keeping it just the way it is!
A lot more fun to look at, don't you think? It will make me smile as I drink my OJ.
QUILT BACKING & PIN CUSHION
Since I retired 6 yrs. ago after a 30+yr. as an educator, one thing I value the most is NOT having to RUSH. I can make my own schedule, take a nap, spend time with those I love, create items from fabric either by hand or at my sewing machine, enjoy a morning cuppa on the front porch swing, listen to the birds, bake treats for my family, sew with my Granddaughter, watch my Grandsons play flashlight tag at dusk all from the comfort of my swing, rock my 1 month old adopted grandson, read books with my James, share with you on my blog, or simply do nothing if I so choose.

Grandmama’s Stories (ME)
I love your projects. You even made ruffles! And that pincushion is just too cute. Thank you so much for the hour. I will put it to good use.
ReplyDeleteAn hour of no rushing - sounds like a lovely way to start the morning off for a take it easy day. Love the duvet cover and all the little things of sweetness.
ReplyDeleteYour duvet is really pretty! and little legs peeking out from the quilt is always precious. :)
ReplyDeleteThat is one of the best give-aways, time, a need to breath deeply and just doing nothing.... Utopia?
ReplyDeleteI like your quilt, the ruffles give it the little extra, well done!
I love your quilt. The ruffles look like window awnings to me. Very cute. I am going to take that hour you gave me and sew with it today. Thanks Jane!
ReplyDeleteFabulous scripture! Love your quilt, legs and all. If Gmama can get gdaughter to slow down and sew...well, enjoy those little legs, they don't stay little long! Studio E looks lovely in ruffles too!

ReplyDeleteGreat job on your projects. Enjoy your retirement, and your grands.
ReplyDeleteLove your "Edith Ann" picture in the oversized rocker. Now there is the way to slow it down. WTG on your quilt featuring all the lovely RWBG fabric. How you found a little time to make the other items--well we are retired, supposedly.

ReplyDeleteNow you have me singing that song, which is okay because it is a sweet song. I love having those words added to your beautiful quilt and the ruffles just take it over the top! Great pic in the rocking chair and thanks for the hour giveaway. I need it! ;O)
ReplyDeleteI just love your quilt with beautiful words. I thought the top rows were little windows with curtains. Very precious and I love the little legs in that picture. Your world sounds just wonderful with not too much rushing. Thank you for the giveaway, it's the best one yet.

Hi, I like your cup and glass cozies and reminds me I am in "need" | "want" of a teapot cozy. Thank you for your giveaway ~ I believe I will take it after I leave today's Rush Hour Blog Hop, out on our porch with a new book I will be beginning today. I like those little Granddaughter remembrances too! Ecc. 3:7a ... and a time to sew! Blessings to you today, Kathleen ~ Lane Hill House lanehillhouse[at]centurylink[dot]net
ReplyDeleteLove the chair picture. Really made me smile, partly because of the chair, but mostly because of your smile, you look very happy. The quilt is gorgeous and I love the little sewing box/pin cushion, how cute is that. Your glass cozy will always be right side up to you when you are drinking and looking at it, so it's all in someone's perspective isn't it?

ReplyDeleteYour projects are all gorgeous - I'm curious, does the glass cozy stop condensation from gathering on the table under the glass? Does it catch the 'sweat'?
