AmpersAnd

Posted on May 18, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in My Patterns

Last month, I announced my newest pattern to members of the Cowgirl Club. Now that they’ve had first crack at it, I finally have it ready to be shown to the rest of the world! It’s called AmpersAnd . . . Back last winter, when it was so cold, I pulled out a bunch of […]

Studio Organizing, Week 20

Posted on May 14, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

My sewing machine is home! And you would not believe how much quieter and nicer she runs now. Her doctor, Tammy, said she pulled out two large compacted balls of lint the size of ping-pong balls, and that she needed oil badly. Yuck! It’s a wonder she was still working at all! Dr. Tammy suggested […]

Studio Organizing, Week 19

Posted on May 7, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

Sometimes 10 things can be a lot — was it for you? It was a big effort for me to get to 10 things, but they did make a difference. I may have to repeat this one! I shipped off 3 boxes of finished projects, which actually cleared 16 items out of my sewing room, […]

Posted on May 1, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in 350 Blocks Project

What a whirlwind April was! I don’t even know if I kept a proper block count, I was so busy! I’ll see what I can come up with. I may have to go back and add some more in later, if I remember something else. I’ll start out with the blocks I made for these […]

Studio Organizing, Week 18

Posted on April 30, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

Well, that one was easy, but I needed an easy one last week. Doesn’t this look so much better? While I was taking that picture, I got distracted by a Cowboy in my driveway. And now all the cows are rearranged! Those two like to play . . . I need another easy organizing task […]

Studio Organizing, Week 17

Posted on April 23, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

Last week’s task was easy for me, and I loved hearing all of your ideas on how you store your rulers. I don’t think any two of us store them just alike! This week’s task is another fairly simple one, but one that I need to do just for my own peace of mind: Clean […]

Studio Organizing, Week 16

Posted on April 16, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Organizing, Studio Organizing Challenge

Well, I barely managed to clean up even one small area this past week. It wasn’t even that bad of a mess — my problem is finding the extra time to give it any attention! But I’m so glad I did it. It looks so much better, and is like a breath of fresh air […]

Studio Organizing, Week 15

Posted on April 9, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

Well . . . How did you do on finding a pile to eliminate? I was a slacker, and chose my easiest pile — the pile on the landing. Actually, it was the one that was the most in my way, and I was tired of tripping over it. In that pile, I found fabric […]

Studio Organizing, Week 14

Posted on April 2, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

Well, I didn’t make much progress on my penny rug, but I’m leaving it out as one of my evening handwork projects, and will chip away at it as I can. It’s so close to done, I’d really like to check something off my list! Here’s this week’s task: Eradicate a pile With all my […]

March 350 Blocks Report

Posted on April 1, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in 350 Blocks Project

I don’t know about the weather, but as far as sewing goes, March came in like a lamb and went out like a lion, for me! I’ve been flung headfirst into what I call “Deadline Season” around here. It won’t end until June 1st, at which point, I believe I will need a nap! This […]
