Friday Find Fun Funky Fabric ! ! !

This is going to be my Scrappy Log Cabin.....
I'm making it for our Family Reunion...
.We're doing a raffle to help pay for reunion....
Four more Blocks to go!
There were 13 Brother and Sisters. That makes for a lot of family. I'm going to embroidery the names of the 13 in each block, than put it together with white stripes......I have already fell in love with this because it has a lot of my past fabric in it. Dresses, curtins, quilts, sheets, table cloths and
fabric that my Mother gave me, she made things out of.........Even my grandaughter's dresses.......

Saturday Showoff !!!!


This is in my sewing room....I decided you might like to see all my insperational peices of art....
I like to look at these machines and imagine the wonderful little ladys and all the awesome things she sewed on this old machine.


This is a crank model...I have the case for this one.....My dear sweet Mother gave me the ST doll when I was about 6. I have a picture of my grandbaby sewing her first dress at eight.....And this is a postcard a friend sent me for my sewing room... Did I cover it all?


I have these beautiful little machines and pincustions all over my sewing room.....I enjoy them very much. The little treasures just make my day when I enter this room...I do love the sewing baskets
as well. I have a few in different sizes. You can spy some in my pictures.....My Mother gave me the clock for my room too....Really miss her  but she is always apart of my daily memories...So much of who I am she has a hand in .....as all out Mothers so lovingly do!

Where Am I Going?????

     I just super  love these chairs. They are so artistic and inspiring to me. I don't like the guy...no not the young guy...He's kind of cute but the guy in the hat with the ladies dress on.
Indulge me here!  I have been looking for a chair everywhere. I like the one beside the cute guy.
Just think if you could put this in your quilting room....Great....Do you have room......
