The Eddie Cap Tutorial. Laquo; I’m Three. Posted June 15, 2010 by Irene in My Home. I moved and I love it! I say that alot about alot of things, but I really, really do *love* my new sewing space. I waited and waited and waited. I blame myself as well. I didn’t put too much effort in moving. My old sewing space was my dining room. You saw my giant mess the minute you walked through my front door. And for a person as messy as I am, that’s so not good. I got rid of a lot. And now my home is at peace. Http:...

rikrax: One little, two little, three little burp cloths
http://rikrax.blogspot.com/2013/03/one-little-two-little-three-little-burp.html
Tuesday, March 12, 2013. One little, two little, three little burp cloths. Sung to the tune of the children's song: "One little; two little; three little Indians.". One little, two little, three little burp cloths:. Four little, five little, six little burp cloths:. Seven little, eight little, nine little burp cloths! Ten little burp cloths for bay- bee! Then I decorated the edges using the scraps I had purchased. I concealed the edges of the fabric appliqué using ribbon, much like Carla did. I wante...

rikrax: January 2013
http://rikrax.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 1, 2013. Around Thanksgiving, I got the urge to make Christmas Cards. I wanted to make a few, to satisfy the urge, knowing that I couldn't possibly get enough done for my entire list (I am so blessed that I have a list so long! So I bought some supplies, glued and cut and trimmed and stamped and embossed. I made about 20 cards, I think. Here is the one picture of my handiwork:. The ones with the snowflakes were a lot of fun to do. These are quilled - paper filigree. It has been a great a...

Just South of Sanity. Always well-intentioned, not always sane. In Praise of Mediocrity. February 7, 2013. So at the end of last year, I made my resolutions for 2013. And they are fairly different from what you tend to read about in magazines, I can sum it up like this- I resolve to be nothing more than average, and to love it. To pick up take-out more often and accept that I don’t have to home cook every single meal. To ENJOY lounging around when I’m exhausted or in pain. 5 responses ». Elizabeth, this ...

rikrax: May 2012
http://rikrax.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 17, 2012. Here's something else I'm stitching:. This is the 4th in a fingertip towel set Mom had started. Each one is a design for the seasons, and Mom had finished Summer, Fall and Winter. Spring wasn't even started! I found the set among her crafting supplies when I was working on the house last month, and I'm terribly sentimental about craft projects. I don't know why, exactly - they seem so personal to me, I guess, and people intend to finish them. Monday, May 14, 2012. My conscience is...

rikrax: The Excitement of a New Project
http://rikrax.blogspot.com/2013/07/the-excitement-of-new-project.html
Sunday, July 7, 2013. The Excitement of a New Project. Since I have almost finished the baby quilt, it is time for a new project. Here's what I chose:. Two years ago, I bought this pattern at a yard sale - an enthusiastic quilter had passed away and the family was liquidating her stash. My, she had a quilt shop worth of fabric, precuts, patterns, and sewing machines! I like simple but effective designs, and this appealed to me. I don't know if I'll undo those blocks, toss them, of just leave them. It...

rikrax: String Piecing
http://rikrax.blogspot.com/2013/03/string-piecing.html
Monday, March 18, 2013. I have a bunch of strips and scraps left over. The natural fit is.string pieced blocks! Looks like baby will get a quilt, also. Or, at least, that's my good intention. Simple diagonal foundation pieced blocks, nine inches square. I want the finished block to be 8 inches square, so I have a little wiggle room to square the blocks up. I'm throwing in some strips of solids from the fat quarter pack I purchased at JoAnn. I'm not sure how many blocks I'll get from the scraps. The n...

rikrax: July 2012
http://rikrax.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 23, 2012. The photography bug has bit me this summer (along with several hundred mosquitos). Here are a few pictures I'm quite proud of:. Goldfinches at the Feeder. There's a lot to learn with photography. While I understand the concepts of aperture and shutter speed, I'm still refining my working knowledge how to use them to get the effects I want. I enjoy doing pictures of nature and quilts. Pictures of people tend to draw you in more and tell a story. Monday, July 2, 2012. The Kansas City...
