February 01, 2018

According to my On Ringo Lake agenda, it is time to baste the quilt.

The block assembly went really fast and I found myself done in the middle of the week with time to work on some other projects. I even finished a dress on my Bernina 460 Overlocker that I wore to work on Thursday! I’m glad I decided to give myself a week for each new clue. …

It’s block assembly time! I was so excited to lay my units out to see what my blocks would look like, but I waited until Friday, my day for my next clue, before I started. For me, the expectation and waiting is half the fun! I wanted to share my process for block assembly this …

On Ringo Lake – Week 6 with Brenda and AccuQuilt!

January 02, 2018

Well, then, I guess Bonnie had some tricks up her sleeve. I knew she had a history of surprises at the end of her mystery quilts, but was still a bit flabbergasted at how she ended this. Since I am not superhuman (and I was out of town with no internet, cell service or phone …

December 21, 2017

It was another week with a LOT of units again! I’m so very glad for my Accuquilt Cutter and the speed at which I can get the pieces cut for the sewing that needs to happen. I started with my brown triangles. After cutting a couple of strips from each of my fabric, it was …

On Ringo Lake – Week 3 with Brenda & AccuQuilt!

December 14, 2017

I hope everyone is keeping up! For me, so far, so good. I didn’t have the right sized strip cutter to prepare this week’s coral units which meant I had to go old school and use my rotary cutter. Thankfully, it went pretty fast when I stacked my strips, but I would never be able …

December 05, 2017

A gaggle of geese! Wow, Bonnie has us working hard to create our own flocks of flying geese.

Welcome to Ringo Lake – Week 1 with Brenda!

December 01, 2017

I’m sure I wasn’t the only one up early on Friday morning to start cutting for the first clue. I thought Bonnie’s advice about checking accuracy of seam allowances was valid, so I began with cutting enough for one unit. My new Bernina 590 sews like a dream! I love piecing with dual feed and …
