Here is a quilting poem I wrote  Hope you enjoy it!

                                                Quilting quilting as we go

                                                Where it ends we do not know

                                                One day we started and

                                                Now we can't stop!

                                                One bright fabric I see

                                                then there were three

                                                Oh me oh my I believe

                                                They are calling to me!!!!

                                                 I shopped and hopped

                                                 til I hopped no more

                                                 I'm done! I declared

                                                 As I lay on the floor!

  

                                                But one more fabric

                                                Beckoned me more!

                                                I wished and wished

                                                As I went out the door!

                                                For just one more sale

                                                Which should be my last!

                                                But I guess the quilt pixies

                                                Had to have the last laugh!

                                                I saw blues and reds

                                                and yellows galore

                                                They had browns and greens

                                                That filled the store!

                                                Colors danced and cavorted

                                                Round my poor head

                                                as I stared at the racks

                                                filled with quilts for my bed!

                                                Plaids and Cottons and

                                                Batiks by the bolt!

                                                Stacks of Homespun that

                                                Gave me a jolt!

                                                I needed them all

                                                but my money was low

                                                I hoped and I hoped

                                                for a sale don't ya know!

                                                From the corner of my eye

                                                I spied the very thing!

                                                A 50 per cent off sale!

                                                Yes! Now I can sing!!

                                                I get to buy some

                                                Of all of those prettys

                                                Now to go home and

                                                Make quilts for my Kiddies!

                                                Oh My! Happy days!

                                                I will be able to say!

                                                It won't be my last!

                                                But I had a great day!

Here is my Snickerdoodle wall hanging or quilt pattern.

It uses my shortcut blocks. Once you learn to make these blocks the quilt block is easy to make!!

To make this the size shown you will need a 2 1/2" template. these are available on my website
You can use any size template you like to make this larger or smaller.

I'm finally getting back into sewing! I decided to work on some more things to put on my websites catalogue.

so here is a pic of the Star Point quilt block I am working on. It is going to be either a tote bag or a makeup bag or maybe a mugrug LOL  Haven't decided yet. this will be an unfinished 6 1/2" quilt block. I'm using 1 1/2" star point blocks.

This is one of my shortcut block methods which you can find as a free tutorial on here.

Hopefully I'll have it done tomarrow and can show you how it turned out and what it wants to be when it grows up LOL

Wishing you all a Sunshiny day with lots of laughter!!  Rhonda
