Hello again! Thank you from the bottom of my heart to those who commented yesterday. I'm not sure how to comment you back individually but will try to figure it out today. You are so sweet! There is so much to figure out! I'm going to be selling everything but more about that later. Sadly, the world in general does not lust after quilter's UFO's. Yes, a stack of half of the blocks for a project don't excite most people. It's like I'm doing my own estate sale! I was hoping to leave that job to my children-haha. They are all mad at me BTW. I thought maybe they would be worried but they were all furious. More about that later too. </div>

My car is 11 years old (yikes) but it only has 25,500 miles on it. Can you believe that's all I drive-to Walmart and back-lol. So I figure my car should be okay. It doesn't need tires or anything but I will get it all checked out before I leave (assuming I can sell my stuff and get some money for the road).</div>

I had to figure out what I would do about Blossom. I've been working on that but more on that later too. Right now, I'm working on my list of stuff to take in the car. It's a Camry so it can't be too much. I have a blog friend who took an extended car trip (with children no less) and she left a link in her comment on yesterday's blog post about her preparations. I can't wait to see! My biggest concern is my elderly bladder! I get up 3 to 5 times a night! That is something I have to get figured out for sure.<br />

Well, off to get something done. I am feeling the pressure to go south before the snow. The phrase "Winter is Coming" has a whole new meaning for me now. Love you guys so much! <br />

I'm back and I have lots of news! I've had lots of changes in my life and I decided to share them with you! You have been my friends for years now online and some of us have even met in real life. I care about you all! So here goes.<br />
<br /><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimc0XY3-lseTT-pGN_v51AKKwPH7hd-e6rAIovnEZedGJeJ38-kHU6N_ltThhaEQtZsZtOxPr-l_i0x8bmNCUewId_A48zShG2UztPCVx0NoPWqwm10WG_DjPIrKAF_x5uDCCO8YfawVw/s1600/Blossom+9-27+4+cropped.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="236" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimc0XY3-lseTT-pGN_v51AKKwPH7hd-e6rAIovnEZedGJeJ38-kHU6N_ltThhaEQtZsZtOxPr-l_i0x8bmNCUewId_A48zShG2UztPCVx0NoPWqwm10WG_DjPIrKAF_x5uDCCO8YfawVw/s320/Blossom+9-27+4+cropped.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>

I have reached the point where I cannot get by on the money I get from Social Security. It has been so hard to try to stretch the meager amount I get to last all month. When I lost my job, I started supplementing my income with the little online fabric store I had. Well, that quickly dried up because I didn't have more money to put back into the shop. Some months I have less than $100 after utilities and rent for groceries all month (that's if I buy my prescriptions). So, I've decided to just live in my car! That will give me the extra money from utilities, rent, etc. to live on. I found a variety of blogs by people who are living in their vehicles. Instead of RVing they call it CAR-Ving. There are a surprising number of women my age (old) with their dogs! Some of them have really fancy rigs but some just live in their car so there's lots of information out there. They go south in the winter and north in the summer.<br />

<br /><br />
<br /><br />
It's been a hard decision to make but I've done a lot of research and I think I can do it. I'm going to use my blog like a diary. I don't know if anyone will be interested but I will have a record of how this part of my life is going and my friends can keep up with where I am. Yes, I'm taking Blossom. We've been leading a sedentary life so she will get more exercise and see some of the country. I decided that I can either barely get by or I can take off and have my last great adventure. Until I leave the house for good, I'll write about my preparations for the road. Wish me luck! <br />

Just not on Blogger!Hi everyone! I guess I should explain better what I've been up to! My blog has moved to Word Press. If I had to figure out how to do that, I would have but Gina did all the work for me. Gina and I have put out a pattern together based on her painting and art work.<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
Just to explain what this is...We have a large quilt pattern called Happy Garden we are working on with 16 new quilt blocks designed by Gina. The Garden Wheel block is only one of the patterns from the large quilt. We will have a variety of projects from each block that people can buy or they can buy the large quilt pattern with all the templates. These will be listed on our Craftsy shop and on Etsy. We are also working on a free download of an applique tutorial. These blocks look hard but are very easy and an experienced beginner can do them. We have color illustrations and photos like this one:<br />

It's actually one of my favorite photos because it shows that you don't have to worry about matching all those seams in the middle because there will be a flower appliqued over it-lol! We also have a Facebook page that is private for those who have bought the pattern. You can find the pattern and some free ones on the Craftsy pattern shop for Blossom and Bev <span style="color: red;">HERE</span>. So I hope you will come follow my new website and blog <span style="color: red;"><a href="http://blossomandbev.com/" target="_blank">HERE</a></span>. We will be putting up some great giveaways on the new blog in the next couple of weeks so be sure and follow! Cheery wave from Bev<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">First, let me say hello and Happy New Year to the few remaining followers who are still checking my blog. I know that everyone must think I have run off with the really cute UPS guy. Well, no. Actually, my very talented daughter, Gina, who is a web designer, graphic artist and marketing guru, is "re-branding" me. I have had so many changes in my life in such a short time that I can't begin to go into them right now. My re-branding includes a new name, a website and a new blog! I'm moving to WordPress and my new website name is: <b>Blossom and Bev</b>. Here is the new logo that Gina has created for me!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Pretty cute, right? I'm not going to be selling fabric anymore but will be designing patterns and having quilt alongs and more. Gina and I are designing some patterns together too. Well, she's designing and I'm writing them up and making them. I'm really looking forward to this new chapter in my life! But first, I have to go into my Blogger and do some work so that the blog content can be transferred. I'm so lucky to have Gina handle this because she does this for a living for other people but isn't charging her mom. I'm also finishing some projects I've been working on (yes, Judy--I'm almost finished). I've really missed blogging and seeing what you are all doing and can't wait to get back to it! All of these new things in my life are not what I had planned or expected but I believe that God knows what He is doing so I'm rolling with it! Blossom is doing great and I have to say that she is one of the cutest, sweetest, smartest dogs who ever lived-seriously! I hope you will come and visit the new blog! You can find it at: blossomandbev.com </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Good morning! I'm getting ready to move and am selling stuff to raise money. Boy is it expensive for someone living on Social Security! Whoa! So I'm selling some<i> unfinished blocks </i>that I've put into photo collages so you can see how they look together. First are unfinished blocks from the Farm Girl Fridays QAL. They are 12.5" unfinished.</span><br />

Look at this adorable Christmas line!<span style="font-size: large;">Hi everyone! It's Friday! I'm moving in about 2 weeks. No date certain but I'm seriously starting to pack. I know everyone has moved but who has downsized? I need to cull out things and be merciless but it's so hard. Do I have a garage sale? Do I just give things away? Do I take them with me and put them in storage? The decisions...uggg. My new house is going to have a room just for the fabric! It has an ouitside door so Jen and I can have people come by the shop and pet the fabric with us! That will be so much fun! We are still getting things in at the shop. Has anyone made the quilt from this<a href="http://44thstreetfabric.etsy.com/" target="_blank"> <span style="color: red;">Jen Kingwell book</span></a>?</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Customers keep asking me if it is hard and I really don't know. I've seen a lot of these on the internet. If you've made one or are working on one, will you let me know if it is for experienced quilters only? Could a "newish" quilter do it? We are getting the cutest line of fabric in next week!

<span style="font-size: large;">There are more patterns in the line but I'm not going to put them all on here. I can't help myself--I love the little animals! Well, I'm off to cut and ship fabric.

I'm running around like a chicken with my head cut off (where did that saying come from...creepy but my grandmother used to say it all the time). Anyway, see that little red dot in the photo of the giant cliff? That's my 6 year old Grandchild! She went to camp with her dad and that is one of the activities! When I went to Brownie camp, they wouldn't even let us close to the fire, much less climb a cliff!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">She shot a bow and arrow and rode a horse. Her horse looks like it couldn't run away with her if it wanted. I can take those activities but the cliff climbing got me! </span><br />

Hope you are all doing well! Thanks to everyone who wrote to me asking why it seemed like I fell off the planet! Lots has gone on for me--too much to talk about in one blog post. I'll eventually tell you all, just like I always do. The biggest news is that I'm moving! To Claremore, Oklahoma. I never, in my wildest dreams, ever thought I would live in Claremore. I've never even been there! The shop and I will be close to Jen, my shop partner. She lives about 15 minutes away from where I'm moving. That being said...boy do I have a lot of stuff. That's really putting it mildly. I have soooo much fabric that I've hauled from house to house but now I have all the fabrics that are in <a href="http://44thstreetfabric.etsy.com/" target="_blank">the shop too</a>! I'll be selling some of that fabric for very little plus shipping so watch for that if you need some. I just did a tutorial for this block:</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">It is my month to be the Queen Bee for Stash Bee. If you would like to see the tutorial, click <a href="http://stashbee.blogspot.com/2015/11/hive-1-november-tutorial-from-bev.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>. I did pictures and everything--lol. We got layer cakes of Sugar Flower fabric by Leicen in at the shop and I had to use it. The colors are so gorgeous. Of course, you know that my camera takes very poor quality photos so don't just go by this photo. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Miss Blossom is settling in just fine. She is still having skin issues and the vet just put her on another round of steroids and antibiotics and medicated baths. I am praying that this is just the last effects of the mange and that she will get better. She seems very relaxed and happy as you can see. This is how she spends most of her day.</span><br />

<br /><span style="font-size: large;">Jen and Lee are going to help me move so Jen and I put everything in the shop on sale so we don't have to move as much. You should really check it out! You can see it at the shop <a href="http://44thstreetfabric.etsy.com/" target="_blank">HERE</a>. My friend, Annette, is coming over tomorrow to help me do some packing. Thank goodness for friends! I am freaking out about what to do with everything. I know it will all get done...it always does...but I still get all stressed. Wish I wasn't that way. Hope you are all enjoying nice fall weather and having lots of time to sew (unlike me). Love you guys! XO and stressed but cheery wave from Bev</span><br />

I've been making this great block out of different fabrics because I'm the November Queen Bee at Stash Bee! This is the block I'm going to ask my hive mates to make for me. It's amazing how different a block can look by just using different fabrics.

Hope your week is going great! My friend, Karen Walker, has designed another pattern and I wanted to share it with you! It's called Cinderella Pumpkins and, of course, pumpkins are my favorite fall symbol. Here are some photos:</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">Karen used spicy fall colors but I'm going to make a block for her from non-traditional fabrics. You can see all the places to buy this pattern on Karen's blog, <a href="http://chezstitches.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">Chez Stitches</span></a>. We got some new fabric in at the shop and I can't wait to use it with Lori Holt's Farm Girls QAL blocks! First, adorable Kitchen Utensils:</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5r1dw7Bd4ZNh1q7mxNDkRAu6CXqq8QHtmq2VcVIzTYG6pp39yPk8SZOyr-2-1NwNYVqyWZL9rulPVIHsGIy7N4IWPR5r0MEgvq_drRrC5MigfV9hfCc1HaaCcGfvlqxUtrb3vICoR6vo/s1600/72dpi-TP-1568-Q.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5r1dw7Bd4ZNh1q7mxNDkRAu6CXqq8QHtmq2VcVIzTYG6pp39yPk8SZOyr-2-1NwNYVqyWZL9rulPVIHsGIy7N4IWPR5r0MEgvq_drRrC5MigfV9hfCc1HaaCcGfvlqxUtrb3vICoR6vo/s400/72dpi-TP-1568-Q.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">I think this one would be perfect for kitchen curtains or tea towels and potholders for gifts! The other fabric from the Lila's Kitchen line that I wanted to show you is Hens and Eggs:</span><br />

Just thought I'd check in and see what you guys are up to.When did time start going so much faster than it used to? Is that because I'm older or because the waves of time (per Einstein) have us on a down hill slide? Whatever causes it, it's making me crazy! Although I have to say that maybe, it's possible, perhaps, that I'm not getting as much done because I have to stop and play with Blossom or hold Blossom or brush Blossom. As most of you know, I've been selling unfinished quilt tops to make money. Here's one I finished yesterday:</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">It's so hard to get a photo of a top with no-one to hold it up. This is a top I put together with my favorite bright, fun fabrics. I like the way it looks.</span></div>

I'm enjoying some nice weather here (so unusual). The mold, tree and grass counts are ultra high but I have Allegra! Ha! So lately I know I've been sharing a lot about what the shop is doing because that has been most of my activity--with a little sewing thrown in. I did want to tell you about something I've been using that I just love! It's Lori Holt's Seam Guide:</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9q_sIJzAHlnNXcrtD2fa7zWo8_t4_l1E2FeUjm3KVCkIkwWPTRRFK9UKb4vC7cKItGPz-9m-doG4Gdyw9reQ4v1hpn_jvquoz_Mgr1fQFXlH1z5w5oQF78HMpLQjhzviCMfPdcufhhac/s1600/productimage-picture-893330013433-25228+Seams+Sew+Easy+Red.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9q_sIJzAHlnNXcrtD2fa7zWo8_t4_l1E2FeUjm3KVCkIkwWPTRRFK9UKb4vC7cKItGPz-9m-doG4Gdyw9reQ4v1hpn_jvquoz_Mgr1fQFXlH1z5w5oQF78HMpLQjhzviCMfPdcufhhac/s400/productimage-picture-893330013433-25228+Seams+Sew+Easy+Red.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">It is so awesome! It fits on your sewing machine bed and attaches with little removable glue dots so you can take it off if you need to. Those 3 straight lines make it possible to sew triangles and corner squares without marking! You just follow the lines and NO marking! </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoDHaHLeXKez9aakG2arfWLulymsC4EnmXVjweCBlqULSvYWAg0Eksu62ufElh1VDJ6Na5ni9s7nA39lKt-yAGK5t7f2Ah8-BlPtfZiQPPEgoh5Vj6ELbvWgimayK5Q7rckGg2XvKkVLA/s1600/Image+20.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoDHaHLeXKez9aakG2arfWLulymsC4EnmXVjweCBlqULSvYWAg0Eksu62ufElh1VDJ6Na5ni9s7nA39lKt-yAGK5t7f2Ah8-BlPtfZiQPPEgoh5Vj6ELbvWgimayK5Q7rckGg2XvKkVLA/s400/Image+20.jpg" width="400" /></a></span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> I don't know about you but it makes it a lot faster for me. Another thing is that you can follow the line on the right and get a perfect seam allowance. Yes, you can buy these seam guides other places but we have all the colors and a great price and you can buy them <a href="http://44thstreetfabric.etsy.com/" target="_blank">HERE</a>. They come in red, aqua, green and pink.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I think this is a perfect gift for your quilting and sewing friends or for a guild secret Santa! And I couldn't go without giving you an update on Blossom. She is a spunky, adorable little girl! </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">She's been to the groomer who evened up her hair and it's growing back in pretty quickly. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">You can see what a large area was affected but now there is inch-long sort of sparse hair growing there. Most of the hair on her tail is gone but I still think she looks adorable. Have a wonderful day! XO and cheery wave from Bev</span><br /><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">If you don't know what that is, when you join a Bee, you commit for a year to make a request block each month for one of the other members. The member tells you exactly what she wants and gives a tutorial for it. So at the end of the year, everyone has 11 blocks from other members. So I'm telling you all this because they are taking sign ups for 2016 and they fill up and close it before you know it! You can take a look and sign up <a href="http://stashbee.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">HERE</span></a>. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">More exciting news! This weekend we are doing a 20% off sale in the<span style="color: magenta;"> <a href="http://44thstreetfabric.etsy.com/" target="_blank">Etsy shop</a></span>. It applies to everything except pre-orders. We have tons of new fabric including Hello Darling and Farmhouse! Well, have a great weekend!

I don't know about you but I have tons of scrap bags and baskets that are full to overflowing. When working on a quilt top and my scrap basket by the sewing machine falls over and scraps go everywhere. I just grab them up and make blocks. These are X and Plus blocksTaDah!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I don't even pay attention to matching colors. It's such an easy, fun block to do. It's so busy that these blocks will probably need a dark sashing though. I've seen this block done by tons of people and some are selling the pattern. There are also free patterns if you google them. </span><br />

It's just noon on Sunday and I'm stitching happily while watching Monarch of the Glen. It's a wonderful BBC show that is lots of fun to watch. I'm on Season 3 and it just gets better and better. The scenery is gorgeous too. We are having an Instagram giveaway right now for 4 charm packs from Hello Darling (just go to Instagram and type in @44thstreetfabric to enter). Someone asked me what you could do with a charm pack. Here's one thing that I like to do. Just sew 4 charms together in a 4 patch. I use spray starch to help prevent stretching of bias edges. I press each set of 2 squares in opposite directions and then press the center seam open so it lays nice and flat.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I have a 9.5" Omnigrid square ruler but any square ruler will do. I
don't know if you can see but there is a diagonal yellow line running
right down the middle of the ruler. I center that line on the block and
put the tip of the ruler on the top center seam.</span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJm7gpGMEoUJFYNdUzvFCmugHbjIwKHmtdFN28O9sxryDcaPANZVlqVxX0cnQgEepapsQOqVoIAEuQ5wjqMpBiPIN0-cmvF3bFlKManwbBcmVmh5_XqXLz2VyqmPr5ryCRhqLOOtwG3P0/s1600/First+Trim+Fixed.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="248" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJm7gpGMEoUJFYNdUzvFCmugHbjIwKHmtdFN28O9sxryDcaPANZVlqVxX0cnQgEepapsQOqVoIAEuQ5wjqMpBiPIN0-cmvF3bFlKManwbBcmVmh5_XqXLz2VyqmPr5ryCRhqLOOtwG3P0/s400/First+Trim+Fixed.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Make sure that the edges of the ruler are on the center seam edges at the sides. Then cut off the corners. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTBfXMMHJM83qYYmWDMrKn60SPy7RqIOYN54I94gDTKOLEGCJLvNwgfx6Ef6hWtcC3341M0VHqiBmtNy-RRH3eWWU1NnpoUW56d2rAllarmdc9EalyTaXthhNVcYQ8AdtQKMWNQDzX_8w/s1600/Second+Trim+Line+Up.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="245" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTBfXMMHJM83qYYmWDMrKn60SPy7RqIOYN54I94gDTKOLEGCJLvNwgfx6Ef6hWtcC3341M0VHqiBmtNy-RRH3eWWU1NnpoUW56d2rAllarmdc9EalyTaXthhNVcYQ8AdtQKMWNQDzX_8w/s400/Second+Trim+Line+Up.jpg" width="400" /></a></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Turn the square over and line up the center diagonal line on the ruler again, making sure that the ruler touches the corners of the block.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghBvM7ciO9_dKFzoy1rBUzTHJi9EUhnXD0KJqUlLz1K3xCK2Mbysv0hZIlW9tNd9ULMD0xq8Cb7N0-pm_S6WJK2f5O2uCVSGt_ir5OhuOqg7jOrsh73lt2Cl5Mjp9ngur-d031MhZ30f8/s1600/Second+Trim+Fixed.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="223" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghBvM7ciO9_dKFzoy1rBUzTHJi9EUhnXD0KJqUlLz1K3xCK2Mbysv0hZIlW9tNd9ULMD0xq8Cb7N0-pm_S6WJK2f5O2uCVSGt_ir5OhuOqg7jOrsh73lt2Cl5Mjp9ngur-d031MhZ30f8/s400/Second+Trim+Fixed.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Then make your second trim. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUemNPPmbCB_eYHaaItKfdvfPy-XC93hG7u-dZ-tBiinH5YNmLyoR998H4_hq7iEMeDta3G965vFgrbf5K6ebwsrzMFrf0IeVLjzXAmaD9q9qZCwvnP4Gbn6W1dMFyyu4Evf7pVx4UzMs/s1600/Line+Up+and+Trim+fixed.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="350" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUemNPPmbCB_eYHaaItKfdvfPy-XC93hG7u-dZ-tBiinH5YNmLyoR998H4_hq7iEMeDta3G965vFgrbf5K6ebwsrzMFrf0IeVLjzXAmaD9q9qZCwvnP4Gbn6W1dMFyyu4Evf7pVx4UzMs/s400/Line+Up+and+Trim+fixed.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Line up the diagonal line on the ruler on the block and see how close it is to 6.5". If it is off by a smidge, square it up now, always keeping the diagonal center line of the ruler on the block. Sewing 4 of these together makes a 12.5" block that you can use however you want</span>.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7j9T64t0DXwsC_QUNwUkefzTXgMMHz6ojXK6jzZ9SQdiAQ1l3df5Wt0paNI6R_zMG1YpIy7TXX0-MwfcX53oWqDsCn0o9DJNhZCFHzgP6X7TFRI2-6r4qOOSboAYW-2QwzFrmxVO0J3U/s1600/finished+12.5+inch+block+fexed.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="396" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7j9T64t0DXwsC_QUNwUkefzTXgMMHz6ojXK6jzZ9SQdiAQ1l3df5Wt0paNI6R_zMG1YpIy7TXX0-MwfcX53oWqDsCn0o9DJNhZCFHzgP6X7TFRI2-6r4qOOSboAYW-2QwzFrmxVO0J3U/s400/finished+12.5+inch+block+fexed.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">And you have the triangles left over to stitch together into 20 half-square triangles! Trim the half square triangles to 4" x 4".</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNYnplQ0EeViLus1qmUiCBjJvbpRsK7Y2Fg-xdbhDAtP9uuYxIsh2CpBIKi1wMbE2X7V65DrB6-3Xhj6yhKt2KhrEwnQxf76Q9_ks3_tdhWtXdd7LNBZA1sWHD38csnDeaFKpK6KMvnAg/s1600/Half+Square+Triangles+fixed.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="263" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNYnplQ0EeViLus1qmUiCBjJvbpRsK7Y2Fg-xdbhDAtP9uuYxIsh2CpBIKi1wMbE2X7V65DrB6-3Xhj6yhKt2KhrEwnQxf76Q9_ks3_tdhWtXdd7LNBZA1sWHD38csnDeaFKpK6KMvnAg/s400/Half+Square+Triangles+fixed.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">There are 40 charm squares in the Hello Darling charm packs so you can make 10 squares from one pack. Alternating with the triangle squares, you can make a lovely table runner from just one charm pack. I hope you like this little tutorial. If you don't have any charm squares, we have them in the shop. I have other fun things I do with charm squares that I'll share here later. Happy Sunday! XO from Bev</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">It's here!! Cozy
Afternoon BOM Block 5 AND a Giveaway! The Cozy Afternoon quilt is from
fabric and quilt designer Jacquelynne Steves!
It's a versatile, easy and fun quilt that includes 3 ways to finish your
blocks. You can piece them using a plain fabric square in the middle,
applique them or embroider them.
Jacquelynne provides a video tutorial for the two stitches that are used
for the easy embroidery so it's a great chance to learn! This BOM has gone on
for 5 months and included the pattern for each block, plus the border
and
finishing instructions that are given at the end. Imagine curling up in
front of the fire with
this quilt, a good book and a cup of tea or giving it to a family member
or special friend. Perfect! Jacquelynne has even done quilt labels for this little project or any other!</span></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvNCSOAYPoWm8L7Ix7YDCDBwyvW6176iOS86ybmjav885s2w3s16fk0AhGF-iz8KYdj1FQI-mELyvAqAJDdqd1ST0V0oXf2iL7SYZHmsW0MsIAj18u7DqFI5PJVJs_1xsDySOHYsWxgIc/s1600/Sept+quilt+labels.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="265" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvNCSOAYPoWm8L7Ix7YDCDBwyvW6176iOS86ybmjav885s2w3s16fk0AhGF-iz8KYdj1FQI-mELyvAqAJDdqd1ST0V0oXf2iL7SYZHmsW0MsIAj18u7DqFI5PJVJs_1xsDySOHYsWxgIc/s400/Sept+quilt+labels.jpg" width="400" /></a></h3>

I don't know if anyone else has had this problem but I haven't been able to access Blogger for forever! It seems like I'm supposed to let my European followers know that this site uses cookies AND what type they are. The notice I read says that Blogger will put up that notice for me. I was glad and went on my merry way because I have NO idea what cookies are even on here. Well, apparently that notice has an expiration date. I wasn't able to get onto Blogger until I put up the correct notice. <i>Finally</i>, I found a place that had a bunch of code for this and I just picked one and entered it. Nothing happened. Then I entered the next one and, ta dah! I'm in! I have no idea what the first bit of code did. I don't want to know. I just want to be able to put up my blog posts and go on! I don't even know if my European blogging friends care about the cookies on my Blogger. Well, for now, I'm in! I've been working on many things this week and taking care of Blossom. She is adorable and is starting to look better now. I'll take photos soon! Jen came up with something fun to do for the shop. We are doing a pick your own Farm House bundle! Just pick what you want from the yardage we were able to get:</span><br />

I have some news! One of the local rescues called me and told me that they had a little dog that desperately needed to be in a home. She is a 2 year old Shih Tuz who weighs in at 10 pounds. Her name is Blossom and here is her photo:</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">As you can see, she hasn't been to the groomer yet but I think she is adorable! I miss Lola like crazy and still cry about her almost every day but it is wonderful to have this little soul with me. She has a serious skin condition that has to be treated so she needs me. Sorry but isn't she cute?
She is funny and spunky and I am in love with her. Are you ready for
your Labor Day weekend? Don't forget that we are having a HUGE sale at
the <a href="http://44thstreetfabric.etsy.com/" target="_blank">Etsy</a>
shop! All yardage is $8.99 or less and many of the precuts are on sale!
So hope your weekend includes sewing and quilting! XO from Bev and Blossom </span><br />

Hope you've had a wonderful weekend. Mine has been full of surprises and quirks. Remember the pieces I cut for a Christmas quilt? Here is one block of the Christmas Wreath quilt. </span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwZvQRHrHdJG247wNmGDVaieElvx7QgviTCbnDQab10mGgI9km9W2gJBafpW5UwFjRxKXuC022d3Lm3WDd2tdE87VmJ1Fr66dH0iirUCYeaM5Jg1UuTUPwlKIdC9dEbeROFNkNlCyBHoA/s1600/First+four+blocks+cropped.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="325" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwZvQRHrHdJG247wNmGDVaieElvx7QgviTCbnDQab10mGgI9km9W2gJBafpW5UwFjRxKXuC022d3Lm3WDd2tdE87VmJ1Fr66dH0iirUCYeaM5Jg1UuTUPwlKIdC9dEbeROFNkNlCyBHoA/s400/First+four+blocks+cropped.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I don't know if you can see it, but there is a big wreath connecting the little wreaths. You might have to squint-hehe. You should be able to see it better when I get more blocks finished. Anyway, it's a fun block to make. I've watched the movies Leap Year and If I Stay while I'm sewing. Are you making any Christmas projects yet? I started early because we've gotten so many red and green fabrics in the <a href="http://44thstreetfabric.etsy.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">shop</span></a>. It's made me think of cold weather. It's probably just around the corner! Let me know what you've been up to and visit again soon! We are going to have a great giveaway!
