Tues Tutorial Tip~ Hiding Pin Ends to Stop Stabbing

 

When binding a quilt,

I only use 1 pin ahead

to hold down the binding 

as I hand stitch.

I got so tired of that

one pin stabbing me

when manipulating the quilt. 

Here's the tip I use.

Bury the tip of the pin,

in between fabric layers.

Push the pin as far in as possible

(more than here)

so you don't accidentally 

push it in further and still stab yourself.

It's saved me from a lot of

surprise stabbing.

Fun Fri~Triangle Scarf w/ Border from Knitted Dish Cloth Pattern

 

I have so enjoyed

knitting cotton dish clothes

during this past winter.

I started making them

for a house warming gift.

Then, as long as

I had the cotton yarn

I kept going.

Here's the simple pattern.

One day I was watching a You Tuber

making a triangle scarf.

The beginning stitches

 seemed very complicated.

Realizing the beginning part of the

dish cloth was a triangle,

I wondered why a scarf 

couldn't be that simple.

The dish cloth pattern 

has a border I really like.

So I pulled out a soft yarn of a

spring color.

It does remind me of the "new"

Christmas green too.

So I started with the directions of the

dish cloth

through row 2

and just kept going.

Did not move on to Row 3.

 I kept increasing and

got to where I had enough

to bind off.

This is what I had left.

Actually, I went a row to far

and had to undo a row

then bind off.

I have no idea 

how many rows were knitted.

 

 So there is a simple triangle scarf

with a border 

knitting pattern for you. 

 

Have fun.

Quilt Shot 193~ Echo Block: QOV 2026 Block

The QOV National Sew Day

was the first Saturday of February the 7th.

Unfortunately, our's was canceled due to icy travel.

 

I only managed to make one block.

This is this year's QOV block.

It's very easy, and very versatile.  

This block makes a beautiful border for a panel.

The center block can be scrappy for a whole quilt.

 

You can find the directions for this block

HERE.

Fun Fri~ House Warming Knitted Dish Clothes

Had a member at church to move into

her first home.

So, time was spent during the frozen snow season

on the couch using up the leftover cotton yarn.

Thoughtful Thur~ Old Snow Waits for New Snow

 

This was one of my Mother's sayings.

 

 Through the two weeks

nothing melting because of temps below 28ºF  only.

Several nights were single to negative digits.

The creek has been frozen

those 2 weeks.

That's a rare thing to happen.

So it waited around for Feb. 2. 

 

 Today is Feb 5, 2026.

Nothing has changed

including the high temp at 28ºF.

We might have a dusting (I hope) of snow Fri night.

The temps finally go above freezing next week.

Then, I can finally get out of my drive. 

  

Does old snow wait for new snow? 

Sun Best~Provoked Thought: Hebrews 10: 25 ASV

 A friend mentioned last week before the big snow/ice storm hit the lower half of the United States,

"What if everyone got ready to meet God with the same urgency they had in preparing for the storm?"

 

When was the last time you assembled as a group praising God?
