The quilt that is an Olympic design , very beautiful and made in batiks.

Gentle little blocks that look so pretty in this quilt.



Cute button for keeping the stray threads out of the way. Clever idea.

Dresden hearts. I have seen this one several times  with no pattern. I'll search tonight.  I can find lots of photos but no pattern so far.

Quilting Up A Creek and Carolyn Designs


The pattern is on this site as a PDF. With templates.

As for my day I was not feeling up to par and did a lot of sleeping. Then Marg came over with some mail and we watched more Olympics after she went home.  I didn't even get dressed today.  That only happens when I am not feeling up to par. But I feel better now.  And  that was the day. Pathetic isn't it? But tomorrow will be a better one.

So the blog will be a bit short as well.

Funny comic about a quilter. These are fun.

This young man is saving a baby deer  who got swept away in the river.


Not a good place to land. These boys are licking their chops.LOL



Have   a great evening folks.
Good night.
