Blessed

Hello, my name is Rhonda and I’m a sew and quilt-oholic. Here it is midnight-ish and I’m working on the applique pieces that will be used on my lastest quilt. It surprises even me that I am so drawn to sewing after all these years. The hum of the sewing machine when doing machine work or […]

A new doll in the making…

I have lots of patterns of all kinds: clothing, toys, quilts, dolls etc. Most of the doll patterns are vintage patterns. Probably more than half of the doll patterns I have collected over the years I haven’t had the time to use so I decided to pull out my collection, pick one and get “bizzy”. […]

Quilt completed and better than before

I finished this quilt yesterday. I am so glad I took the time to take it completely apart and start over instead of attempting to “fix” it. I even decided to hand sew a silky binding on this one which I hadn’t considered on the first one. It takes extra time but […]

Rrrrrrrrrrrip!

I was almost done with this quilt then somehow a corner of it caught on something ( I still don’t know what) and ripped. It’s a major set back regarding fabric, batting (which I’m always in need of) and time. Yes, it’s frustrating on so many levels but….. sometimes things happen so I’m NOT […]
