I crochet and this is so much like the granny square afghan I made back in the 70's, it isn't even funny! I just don't get high end fashion. I am a blue jeans and t-shirt type of gal. I guess I'd be looked down upon by fashion experts, but I prefer comfort, so sue me.
Our Rose of Sharon bushes are blooming. I love love love the purple one. It is soooo pretty!
Isn't this gorgeous? Even close up, the insides are amazing.
I got the top of the Charlie Brown quilt sewn together. Next comes batting, backing, and quilting. It is such a happy little quilt!
Here is a finish! The Lancaster quilt, or Folk Art Quilt, as I call it, is done! I am very happy with how this one turned out. I started this around February 2015 and it is all needle-turn applique work. Thanks go to Christy Burdick from Sycamore Hill Quilts for her pattern called "Lancaster County".
I had a small adventure when grocery shopping the other day. My car is on the right. It is good I haven't gained any more weight or I would not have been able to get into my car! Crawling over from the passenger side was NOT an option. I managed to squeeze in though and didn't scratch the other car's mirror, though I did try to move it. haha
Until next time, happy sewing y'all, and don't park so dang close! hahahahaha

That haute couture (I assume?) crochet outfit said granny squares to me right away. I wonder if there are some poor Bangledeshi women crocheting for pennies or if it is machine made somewhere? I can't imagine they are finding fine craftswomen to make each garment. And people regularly bash and misunderstand "making."
I am not at all bashing the amazing quiltmaking you have been doing. I don't remember that Snoopy quilt, but it is cheerful. Your folk Art Quilt is amazing. Congratulations on the finish! You always make me wish I enjoyed hand applique'.
