I also started the Block of the Month with Leah Day.  I love the bright colors she selected, so I went with her color palette.

Here's the block marked and ready to free-motion.  She made this block of the month program easy.  She also provides free motion designs!

I like using the Pinmoors.  I 'll have to buy enough for a much larger quilt...king?
Another fruitful weekend...
I watched the Craftsy class I recently ordered....Annie Unrein's class....'Home Organizers'.  I love her patterns and now she has a couple of classes on this platform. 

Here's a picture of my storage baskets.  I purchased the fabric while in Las Vegas.  The prints of treadle machines and other vintage sewing tools is so adorable.





I've stuffed them with a variety of sewing and quilting stuff.  They are fun to make and are proving to be quite handy!

I have been working on sewing the blocks together.  This isn't as easy....there are so many intersections, seams to align and meet.  I spent some time froggin'!  It sure is a pretty design once the blocks are sewn together. 
I had to step back and work on other stuff.  I'll get some pictures up to show what I've been sewing.

Whew!  My Christmas/New Year break is over....sigh.  We spent our Christmas with hubby in Las Vegas and had a great time visiting with our son and his family.  Mom and Dad Eisebraun are doing fine, too.
After all the fun and family visits, we are now safely back home.  I picked up from where I left off with Bonnie's quilt mystery and worked madly after New Year's.  Wow, what a pretty quilt this is...here are my completed blocks.  I used Grandma Plummer's Pfaff treadle to sew the blocks together.  I plan to work on sewing all the blocks together after school/work this week.


I'm excited to put everything together now that I have my "Sweet Sixteen" quilt machine to help me complete the quilt.

Back to Quiltville for the final reveal!  Here's the link to see what others have finished.

Indigo Way quilt mystery

It's the last day of 2023.  This was a rough year for my family.  We lost four close family members starting in January, May, July, and ...
