2014 A Year of Experimentation!


Carol @ Just Let Me Quilt has a post on choosing one word for your year. I gave it some thought after I had written most of this post and decided the word for 2014 is Experiment

2014 a year of experimentation for "In The Boon Docks"! So many threads, yarns, styles of patterns, sewing and quilting to be explored! I have a lot of ideas on were to start and I might just do a little of everything. Expect a few mistakes but isn't that how we all learn, by my mistakes!

New ways to use your stash!
A Lovely Year of Finishes 2014

January Goal - I have to get done is this project! I'll let you know what it is before the end of the month! I will say it is a lot of work! Only one you say - Yes! I am still hoping I am writing this post correctly!

Got any ideas on what you would like to make or style you might like to see? Leave a comment and we will begin this journey together!

Looking for an exciting year

    You are writing it correctly. =) The Lovely Finish IS only one goal. People who want more can find other projects, but LF is just one to concentrate on, and with all those pieces, that looks like it will be plenty!

Welcome my friends and those who maybe visiting for the first time! Today, I am so excited to introduce you to a true West Virginian Artesian, Greg Cartwright , of Cartwright's Creations . His items are sold in historical shops throughout West Virginia. He is a lover of reclaimed wood of historical nature and creator of works of art! Greg (Cartwright's Creations) & I A note from Greg Dear Readers I have provided two seam rippers to Lisa so she can have one and one to give away. They are both made from beautiful old growth oak which was reclaimed from the original train depot in Weston (Lewis County), West Virginia. Train service was established in Weston around 1880.

I must admit that my main focus is pens and pencils but it really doesn’t matter what I am making as long as it is from wood (although I have recently added pens...

I have to thank Madam Samm @ Sew We Quilt and Amy (Head Cheerleader)@ Sew Incredibly Crazy for arranging this great hop! What is a ruffle? There are lots of different kinds and Madam Samm left it open to interpretation. She showed us how to make some and at the time I was thinking; ruffled bloomers, ruffled dresses, ruffled pillows. Then I saw a quilt in a magazine with what looked like ruffles! I kind of browsed through the issue of Quilt-it today , March/April 2014 issue and left it in my rocking chair and went to work. The second time I read the "Garden Path" pattern by Ann Baxter, (I had already made the quilt), it read "ruching", you don...
