Rural Adventures



I spent the weekend at my parents' house, carrying on with family members I haven't seen in a while. My brother was home from college (he's studying to be an aerospace engineer) and my great aunt and uncle were in town, too. I managed to get this block pieced together on Saturday afternoon whilst enjoying coffee and conversation at the kitchen table, overlooking the scenic views found on the property we so lovingly refer to as "the Ranch."

Isn't it funny how you take your everyday surroundings for granted? Now that I've been away in the city for a couple years, coming out to my parents' place is new and exciting! Here's some pics I posted to Instagram over the weekend:

I figured out that Instagram profiles can be viewed on a computer, so if you'd like to see what I'm up to feel free to check it out here.

Linked up with Fabric Tuesday :D

Happy sewing!

New quilt + Stashing

I started a new quilt! Turns out y-seams aren't so bad and I was able to machine piece two blocks over the weekend. I finished the second one last night so no photo of that yet.

I might have ordered a bunch of new fabric especially for this project. I'm also pulling from my stash.

I wish I could flesh this out more but I have to work (drat!) and don't have time :D

Linking up with {sew} modern Monday and Sew Darn Crafty (buttons on sidebar!)

OMG! Look at this brilliant button Lucy has made for the Stale Stash Swap she's put together. Can't wait to figure out how to add it to my sidebar!
