OMG June

Once again I am going to try to set a goal and accomplish it by the end of the month so I can link up with everyone at OMG Elm Street Quilts.  I kinda got off track the past two months and I am hopeful that things will be better this month. 

My goal is to get this tea towel quilted.  I purchased the towel in Paris two years ago and was going to frame it but after pondering it forever I decided quilting it made much more sense. 

As you can see I have it ready to baste and then on to machine quilting which is always an adventure.  Wish me good quilting karma.

Cheers,

Debi

Blame it on Rocketman!

Today I embraced the color blue as it is this month's color for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge.  I always get excited to see what the "new" color will be each month and this month I wasn't disappointed and jumped right on a blue cake and a few microspools.


The cake pattern is from Lori Holt/Bee in My Bonnet and the microspool pattern is compliments of Sally at The Objects of Design.


My inspiration for today's sewing was the movie Rocketman which is a musical based on Elton John's life.  I loved it! 

I also worked on a few more orange microspools as well as a few "regular" sized spools which is an ongoing Bonnie Hunter project that doesn't get much attention.


There is still one more cake that needs to be made this month as my goal is to make two a month and more microspools too.

Cheers,

Debi
