Pretty Ragged Threads: 2015

Thursday, April 23, 2015

Hello

Hope it is as pretty where you live as it is here today. Been outside planting flowers and working in the yard. Big weekend coming up. Saturday Sis and I are going to St. Louis Vintage Market and then on to the Annual Hook In, a lovely show with hooked rugs and supplies. So much wool to die for. Sunday we are going to Blues Primitives and Junk in Creal Springs, IL. We look forward to all three of these events and this year they just all happened on the the same weekend.

I have recently started making custom items for people. Wanted to shared a custom piece I just finished. It is a Vintage Schoolhouse Art Quilt. I really enjoyed creating it. School was one of my favorite places to be.

Hope you all have a beautiful day!!

Waiting for Spring

Light snow and very cold today. I am so looking forward to Spring. My sis and I did get out and found a nice little quilt shop today. The shop had a lot of unique prints. I picked up a few fat quarters, looking forward to using them.

I find myself putting a little of Spring in the things I am working on. I am sharing a couple of them here.

Warm thoughts,

Jackie

It's been awhile..

It has been a long time since I have posted anything. I post most often on Facebook and just seems I don't get around to my blog. I am going to try and post on her more often. Hopefully there is someone still reading it. Just looking forward to Spring now. It is so darn cold I hate going out. I have been getting some things done in the art room. I will share some of the things I have finished today. But first wanted to share this picture of my granddaughter. She has been taking riding lessons for over a year now and is involved in Pony Club. She just got her first very own horse. His name is Prince and she is very excited!
