It's a Beautiful Day

I have that U2 song running through my head today....but it's true: It's a Beautiful Day.

We grilled skirt steak, played outside and basked in the sunshine. 
Off to play at the park, hoping you are having a beautiful day with your loved ones, too.

All my best,
Heather

Embroidery

Sorting through my embroidery floss the other day, I came across some beautiful colors that have me thinking it's about time to start up a little hand work project. RSVP has such good timing! This is the car I'll be working on the next few weeks {when I'm not piecing a Farmer's Wife block, that is}.
Happy Sewing,
Heather

Farmer's Wife

A quick, simple block for tonight. 
Squash Blossom has been added to the mix.

Happy Sewing,

500 Turkeys Project is in the Works.


The top is pieced (table topper). I may still add a border, we'll see. 
It looks like some Kona solid for the backing, possibly sand.

Here's hoping some bidders like the color choices!

Happy Sewing,
Heather

Y Seam Practice

FWQAL #47 Homemaker 
provided a refresher on the Y {inset or set-in} seam. 
Use it or lose it, right?
