      The Past 6 Months

      I’m not sure where to even begin this post!  It’s been that long. I guess I kind of kept pushing it off because so much has happened within the last…

            Living in TLF – Temporary Lodging at RAF Mildenhall

            • July 5, 2017
            It’s hard to believe that our OCONUS (Outside Continental United States) move began almost 7 weeks ago.  Seven weeks of living out of a suitcase and I’m truly starting to…

              If you’ve seen my stories (listen to the city clip with the bagpipes if you haven’t!), you might already know that we are spending the week in Edinburgh, Scotland! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 So of course that meant packing quilts for fun pics. Quilt nerds unite! 🙌🏻🤓🙌🏻 Except I didn’t factor in how many people would be at Edinburgh Castle today (I get a little claustrophobic thinking about it…seriously, I was a pro at curbing my anxiety today) and had to make do with tons of people in the background. And if you scroll, you’ll see a very puzzled child wondering why my husband was waving around some fabric. What she doesn’t know is that when she’s older and finds someone willing to hold something up in a massive crowd just because it makes her happy…she’s found the right person, lol! ❤️ Major props to the men and women who hold quilts in the strangest places for their wives/husbands. The Half Pint pattern releases on the 24th! #quilthusband #quiltsinthewild #halfpintquilt 365 37
              Have you ever made something and it totally didn’t turn out to be what you had envisioned? 🤔🤷🏼‍♀️😭 Well, here is my example of that kind of disappointment, lol. ☹️ Big sigh. You live and you learn, right? And what doesn’t work for one quilt, may work for another. But don’t fret…I’m still committed to finishing it. My daughter will love it all the same and I guess that trumps any feelings of frustration that I have about it. #sewtherainbow #patchworkquilt #designfail 345 81
              Would you bind this bad boy in the black or gold print? 🤔 I’m leaning towards the black. I think it’ll help balance the black hst’s out since I feel like my eyes are automatically drawn to the darkest color (if that makes sense?). We are off to Scotland soon and I want to order the fabric so that it’ll be here by the time we get back…then I can quilt and bind to my heart’s desire. 🙌🏻❤️😂 So please help me decide! Annnnnd the #HalfPintQuilt pattern releases on April 24th so mark your calendars. 😉 It’s a super quick sew with a clean and modern look! #tattooednorthfabric #modernlymorganpatterns 249 62
              ❔DID YOU KNOW❔ - A yard of Kona costs $6.99 in the States…whereas a yard of the same Kona costs roughly $10.80 in the UK. I mean that’s not a huge difference but it adds up pretty quickly. There’s my random pointless fact for the day. 👍🏻 You’re welcome. 😂 On another note, I’ve started a new project and I’m giving all the credit for this fabric pull to my oldest daughter. I told her to find a print in my stash and then we’d match some Kona colors to it. She found a Road Trip print by @alisonglass and we matched seven Kona color chips to it…then I ordered them from a shop here in the UK (hence my earlier fact and my shock at the price…lol! I normally order all of my fabrics from the States). And guess what that green is?! PICKLE! #sewsolid #fabricpull #modernquilt 252 84
              “Mawwiage. Mawwiage is what brings us together today.” 💒Brownie points if you know what that’s from (only the best movie ever!)…but in today’s news = my husband and I are celebrating our 8th year of marriage. Don’t worry I’m not going to spew a bunch of lovey-dovey stuff at you. And if you missed my ‘fun fact’, watch my instagram stories to learn something new. 👍🏻 Back to quilting…my second #halfpintquilt top is done and this one is pretty darn bold! 😎 I don’t think I’ve ever sewn with blacks and grays so I’m patting myself on the back for stepping outside my comfort zone. Gorgeous fabrics are #tattooednorthfabric by @libselliott and @andoverfabrics 311 52
              Why is it that when I’m looking super rough (like still in pajamas at 1pm and hair is outta control rough🥴) I always end up seeing someone? 🤦🏼‍♀️ And when I’m looking put together I see NO ONE?! 🤷🏼‍♀️ The kids are on break for the next two weeks so I’m taking full advantage of not having to get up early and put makeup on…and of course a neighbor popped by. I had to open my door and hang my head in all of my sweatshirt/sweatpants shame (or glory depending on how you look at it 🙈😂). Girlfriend did not need to see me without my eyebrows done since I’m currently missing half of one too (long story). 😂😂😂 Such is life and maybe tomorrow I’ll put a little more effort into my game! 👍🏻Anyway, look at these fabrics! I’ve been dying to get my hands on some since I first saw @libselliott post about them last year when she first got her samples! The print to the far left and the gold print actually have flecks of metallic on them and are stunning! 🤩 I’m working them into a #halfpintquilt so stay tuned! #modernlymorganpatterns #tattooednorthfabric 209 26
