This larger seam allowance than the pattern calls for is because the burlap weave is quite loose and ravels easily. Press seams open. Then secure seam down with the same narrow zig zag. Follow die pacackaging pattern to make the tree skirt top. I chose not to use a backing, so just folded over the inner and outer edge once and secured hems with the same narrow zig zag stitch. Quite an easy sew--just once again--super messy with the burlap. Trim all the excess threads off and tree skirt is finished.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiw6lAXAcEfIxiAq8iiV2zhjZyfeQLJQVaZKExeiweWLL1x0BI_FdRgJBnKO0OQoPQY-0vLWiMqC1Zq-XKm0FRN7oLnRoEUBP0yc7-uynR0kqy4YIUMm2ckgoeSmrL9YpENH5cP3ziy4JCFI_zLyO6DyOihhAPA2ctmlb61MvbBtyNaT5H4i2eBE-_CIM4/s5712/2023%20phone%20photos%20040.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="5712" data-original-width="4284" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiw6lAXAcEfIxiAq8iiV2zhjZyfeQLJQVaZKExeiweWLL1x0BI_FdRgJBnKO0OQoPQY-0vLWiMqC1Zq-XKm0FRN7oLnRoEUBP0yc7-uynR0kqy4YIUMm2ckgoeSmrL9YpENH5cP3ziy4JCFI_zLyO6DyOihhAPA2ctmlb61MvbBtyNaT5H4i2eBE-_CIM4/w480-h640/2023%20phone%20photos%20040.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><br /><p>I just love the finished project.

Just ask my sewing friends--encouraging others to go outside their boundries and try new things is what I do--LOL!!! Even though I have worked with numerous AccuQuilt applique dies, I had never used machine embroidery with them. There are free downloadable files on the website for most dies, PLUS there are for purchase ones using the dies with a little extra pizzaz added to them. I chose one of the for purchase designs to work with for this project. Embroidery designs are 15% off for the month of February. Check them out <a href="https://shop.accuquilt.com/vandenbosch" target="_blank">HERE.</a></p><p>Here are some tips I learned from doing this project:</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5ge-HFWxqE-SfIjIFCGR7aGs-JJNdwDhlMag02CJ5-RU3CzH-InuxdvLAJI5EJdwS2Ekj0i17M-IHdkbVjc9y4jDUBYZ6ii0cmhmFy9A0MO63uZ4j_1LnHJPQVTfaIv4BRl39G8E8l-4Ql8sHl4OG8-ore6IwolYALOXnTnQfAEHiprH1qSuFuPlF/s4032/IMG_4892.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5ge-HFWxqE-SfIjIFCGR7aGs-JJNdwDhlMag02CJ5-RU3CzH-InuxdvLAJI5EJdwS2Ekj0i17M-IHdkbVjc9y4jDUBYZ6ii0cmhmFy9A0MO63uZ4j_1LnHJPQVTfaIv4BRl39G8E8l-4Ql8sHl4OG8-ore6IwolYALOXnTnQfAEHiprH1qSuFuPlF/w480-h640/IMG_4892.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><br /><p>Terri's Tip #1--ALWAYS do a test sew.

This is a Kimberbell glitter. Heat Transfer Vinyl or HTV is another term for it. It cuts super easy. Has a fusible back and a shiny protective film over the glitter. Just pay attention when cutting if shape is directional. And remember to take the shiny film off before embroidering.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQZzZGCVXznF671xapOt5pDBUhr0ZirUK3LE_N0FG4pvFaTJ0cTZ5bYJb3OBFr0slMDlLhibwWqndEyKBgRGnyDdOn7QvgXlyhDj-MZsIULYmMM0uGcrod5ApnhQe8Wot6PY2n7rX6SJakpgcXoMsdEhkA7QUzQkm-gpBRmWJ9JEbmSyddYUBLx6HI/s4032/IMG_4899.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQZzZGCVXznF671xapOt5pDBUhr0ZirUK3LE_N0FG4pvFaTJ0cTZ5bYJb3OBFr0slMDlLhibwWqndEyKBgRGnyDdOn7QvgXlyhDj-MZsIULYmMM0uGcrod5ApnhQe8Wot6PY2n7rX6SJakpgcXoMsdEhkA7QUzQkm-gpBRmWJ9JEbmSyddYUBLx6HI/w480-h640/IMG_4899.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><br /><p>Terri's Tip #4--I did not put fusible web on the back of my applique shapes--GASP--I know right?!?

It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.</div><div><br /></div><div>Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.</div><div><br /></div><div>And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love." 1 Corinthians 13</div><p class="chapter-2" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, Arial; font-size: 16px; line-height: 2.4rem; min-width: 0px;"><br /></p></div></div></div>lizardcreekquilterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01680257683471189288noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3022556124349641675.post-19549761470403203422022-10-17T19:09:00.005-05:002022-10-17T19:09:51.735-05:00Pinktober hit home this year....<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj08x23i_Ju-lLqNgH9_bK-3EaP8GmDocnFwIcDJ3BfebYwp8I3kmHDH43NEdj6ijOmnbHQBG38-OdFzOdW0gOeKHaC2NEREAwteRhqDZyT3guGc74C__rnd8xyvEXez_majE468nZFBgGOMzbLntnxn0oDEaqI53cOhCq78TvFBpX1OCQ-kpuqjkIV/s1000/coconut%20boquet.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="750" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj08x23i_Ju-lLqNgH9_bK-3EaP8GmDocnFwIcDJ3BfebYwp8I3kmHDH43NEdj6ijOmnbHQBG38-OdFzOdW0gOeKHaC2NEREAwteRhqDZyT3guGc74C__rnd8xyvEXez_majE468nZFBgGOMzbLntnxn0oDEaqI53cOhCq78TvFBpX1OCQ-kpuqjkIV/w480-h640/coconut%20boquet.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;">It's been a crazy year 2022 here at Lizard Creek Quilting...I hadn't had a mammogram in a few years and my dear husband was on my case to schedule one. I finally listened and had one the beginning of April. Four days later on our 36th wedding anniversary the clinic called there was an area in my right breast that needed a closer look. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;">So another 4 days later we went to the breast center for an ultrasound that showed a biopsy was needed to confirm the suspicion of C.A.N.C.E.R. Yes, those are all caps--because when that word is said in the small dark ultrasound room it is like a piercing arrow right into your soul. </span><span style="text-align: left;">The breast center wanted us to come back another day for the biospy but we persisted the clinic had told us we could have it done the same day if needed. They looked again and were able to do the needle biopsy that afternoon. We learned right away to be our own advocates and politely but vigorously ask for what we wanted. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;">Another four days later the results came back as positive. Next appointment would not be for another 2 weeks. We also learned that there is a lot of hurry up and wait in this process. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;">What a whirlwind of emotions happened in those 2 weeks. Not knowing anything--the kind of cancer--the extent of the tumor--how will our kids and family handle this--what does the future hold!! Just waiting....with the mind going to all the dark places the devil takes it to. Lots of crying. Lots of hugs. Not much eating. Lots and lots of prayers. Assembling an army of prayer warriors was one of the first things we did after hearing the biopsy results. Through group texts we asked them to pray for wisdom to the medical personel and peace of mind for us. These were the longest 2 weeks we have ever done, but we also felt the strong arm of the Lord holding us up.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnS8fIwbZ0jKAbvQQ2pmVaSXz07txG38rVofz0T9GEKzfNsptw5euFbhICuZm_IBgC3VJjbztlV4uE4VQ8iYEYUZuT-WlJsoAfPpCY443NWGI0tsMD03CF4pVrMVs9zhNh_17m6dhnelZs4TP6sXqdtsaJvLRN47V2vOr9kITKQ_DNSb_K250kYh1E/s750/praire%20center.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="697" data-original-width="750" height="594" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnS8fIwbZ0jKAbvQQ2pmVaSXz07txG38rVofz0T9GEKzfNsptw5euFbhICuZm_IBgC3VJjbztlV4uE4VQ8iYEYUZuT-WlJsoAfPpCY443NWGI0tsMD03CF4pVrMVs9zhNh_17m6dhnelZs4TP6sXqdtsaJvLRN47V2vOr9kITKQ_DNSb_K250kYh1E/w640-h594/praire%20center.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span style="text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>An MRI of both breasts was done the day before meeting with the breast care team. These results came back the same day--the left breast was clear and only the one tumor in the right. What an answer to prayer that was. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Meeting with the breast surgeon was terrifing and peaceful all at the same time. Scarey for what was to come--but peaceful because it was time to know. We were told the tumor was small and if it had to be cancer it was the "good" kind. Not agressive and very treatable. The wonderful surgeon left the room for a few minutes to give us some time alone to absorb that information so we would have a clear mind to hear the rest of the treatment plan.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">ER+ PR+ HER2- are new words that would now be part of my medical history. The tumor was estrogen based so a daily estrogren inhibitor pill would be part of the treatment plan. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Next appointment of the day was meeting with the plastic surgeon to figure if a lumpectomy or mastectomy would be needed. We went into the meeting thinking--just take them off so the cancer can't come back. But did you know that 10% of breast tissue is left with a mastectomy--and well I was very well endowed in the breast department--so 10% of my leftover would be about 85% of someone elses' whole breast--LOL. Also we did not know that breast implants have to be replaced every 8-10 years or that they can rupture on impact. I lead a quite active lifestyle of riding motorcycle and working hogs on the farm with my husband so the surgeon strongly advised us to go the lumpectomy with bilateral reduction route. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhieKmw7IzqsDboLcDN8GpfVl-SjHutwo6hB_rVcf5H2pkWxm8-4-X3_umu7wtSvoO7hQAKZHAgDEEFZ4BMjUGKmSP2CEMq9jWU1WGNhrYgdj-DW7rFYJv9Z_t4rkUPN_KwHXtY2LiKBhyIoPGN6VkqNIXG3i4HMqTGU-TkqVxB_ogX1naFvsLiw8F6/s1000/go%20in%20peace.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="750" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhieKmw7IzqsDboLcDN8GpfVl-SjHutwo6hB_rVcf5H2pkWxm8-4-X3_umu7wtSvoO7hQAKZHAgDEEFZ4BMjUGKmSP2CEMq9jWU1WGNhrYgdj-DW7rFYJv9Z_t4rkUPN_KwHXtY2LiKBhyIoPGN6VkqNIXG3i4HMqTGU-TkqVxB_ogX1naFvsLiw8F6/w480-h640/go%20in%20peace.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Surgery was scheduled about four weeks later on May 26. If you were paying attention--we are farmers--so this was spring planting and also hog work season!! I took this time to help my husband on the farm, deep clean my house with my mom, prepare some freezer meals with my daughter, cut out some quilt kits in case I could sit at the machine after surgery, walked many miles to strengthen my body and spent time in Gods' Word to calm my mind. I found a verse I had never read before and it became what I would and still do say to myself whenever I get scared.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><br /></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b>"Go in peace, for the Lord is watching over your journey." Judges 18 : 6</b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">May 26 arrived--the day the cancer would be removed from my body!! Right before surgery, Nuclear Medicine injected a dye into the nipple area of my right breast to check for lymph node involvment--the procedure is called Sentinel Node mapping. Two nodes were taken out during surgery--both came back clear and the removal of the tumor proceeded. Because the lymph nodes were clear I could have my radiation done right DURING surgery. The radiologist came into the surgical room, set up the radiation machine right over the spot in my open breast where the tumor had just been removed and zapped the area for 1 minute 23 seconds. It's called Intra Operative Electron Radiation Therapy-- IOeRT. This was such an answer to prayer!!! The plastic surgeon and breast surgeon worked on me both at the same time--one worked on getting the tumor out of the right breast while the other worked on reducing the left one and finished reducing the right one. Surgery was about 4 hours. Then 1-1/2 hours of recovery. THEN THEY SEND YOU HOME!!! Yeah that was something!!! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjG0xaSFh97yoSN4pLQCBO3h99nkgqZb6qVi5Sje1VG_RFsvMdAn72i-Zbz2_u_s4DfnYH0Id8RsKMahNGoCwe0JDrqWWuWbJ8B0cZ1ibHMZeYgALH-yrrGqKnR5fCgnZ6n41P7zoRDahltk_sfwINaUbrrcBXgFVjyqur23FBV8FKIqmcWfEEPXGu4/s1068/6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1068" data-original-width="750" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjG0xaSFh97yoSN4pLQCBO3h99nkgqZb6qVi5Sje1VG_RFsvMdAn72i-Zbz2_u_s4DfnYH0Id8RsKMahNGoCwe0JDrqWWuWbJ8B0cZ1ibHMZeYgALH-yrrGqKnR5fCgnZ6n41P7zoRDahltk_sfwINaUbrrcBXgFVjyqur23FBV8FKIqmcWfEEPXGu4/w450-h640/6.jpg" width="450" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Healing went well. Lots of patience, lots and lots of walking and lots of return appointments. An ONCO score test was done on the tumor to determine if chemotherapy would be needed. My score was well below the number where chemo would be helpful. Many many prayers of thanksgiving for that. We took the motorcycle to the Praire Center for our last plastic surgeon appointment as my way to "ring the bell".</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The first photo in this post is the arrangement we brought to the plastic surgeon on our last visit. The zinnias I planted this spring were just a regular mix--but somehow the Lord decided that I needed a whole mix of pink zinnias this year!!! The jar is the acutal one I used the oil from to massage into the surgical scars--she thought that was pretty cool. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I have been taking the medication Anastrazole for about 3-1/2 months now and will take it for 5 years. The medication comes with it's own share of ups and downs. Ups--it keeps the estrogen from attaching to fat cells and making new cancer cells in my body. Downs--it messes with my balance, sleep, emotions, causes a constant ringing in my ears and can eventually cause osteoporisis. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">But through it all the Lord, my family and friends have been with me!! Faith over Fear is the only way I have gotten through the last 6 months and the only way I can look to the future!! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">If anyone has questions about this--please don't hesitate to ask me!!! And schedule your mammogram!!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUEO1d7NYjZ0_5anC1h1g-nv_3Y5dKJdYyZk1yTxtD6h_YrKR4YY4jJgiqzk8y1CZff6rjnKNYQ-sdT4d2FeLP6-Rehrg2laGQwc0vHsWthOZ3UBE86BFzVw1i1L3Re52PqpqaECJforbTjZTiQ07Oeu_vwXQITzuahSCOxdlA33d7bOYu_KQA4Odp/s2816/IMG_0801.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1880" data-original-width="2816" height="428" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUEO1d7NYjZ0_5anC1h1g-nv_3Y5dKJdYyZk1yTxtD6h_YrKR4YY4jJgiqzk8y1CZff6rjnKNYQ-sdT4d2FeLP6-Rehrg2laGQwc0vHsWthOZ3UBE86BFzVw1i1L3Re52PqpqaECJforbTjZTiQ07Oeu_vwXQITzuahSCOxdlA33d7bOYu_KQA4Odp/w640-h428/IMG_0801.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">A big thank you to our sponsors-- <a href="https://islandbatik.com/" target="_blank">Island Batik for the fabrics</a>, <a href="https://www.aurifil.com/" target="_blank">Aurifil for the pink thread</a> and <a href="https://klipit.us/" target="_blank">Klipit for the great clips</a>. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEDDoil4rd15Efhr5jz8bqinfmi4-B4QSelThm27uQ2sFU2_-tkVIK71pyguGexhc8X7xgjJyy3BcZL-jF5pwotwsl3cPSF5HabBanXoTjQrNVTt8mYSjMts3PDqkN7HxED5LRcM7SCO27ONX88ZtHPqL0p_VzkeiX-vNWf5sToZj21qV2dsn625FS/s2816/IMG_0803.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1880" data-original-width="2816" height="428" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEDDoil4rd15Efhr5jz8bqinfmi4-B4QSelThm27uQ2sFU2_-tkVIK71pyguGexhc8X7xgjJyy3BcZL-jF5pwotwsl3cPSF5HabBanXoTjQrNVTt8mYSjMts3PDqkN7HxED5LRcM7SCO27ONX88ZtHPqL0p_VzkeiX-vNWf5sToZj21qV2dsn625FS/w640-h428/IMG_0803.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lizardcreekquilting.com/shop/ols/products/quietness-pdf-download" target="_blank">Quietness </a>is the pattern of mine I chose to work with for this project.

A while back, I was watching a lot of paper crafting/card making videos--I know like I need another hobby--LOL. Well, there was a new shape in the card making world that was narrow and tall--the shape offered more space for embellishments. My mind of course went to the quilt making world and thought--Wow, I could translate the same narrow tall shape into a quilt--and there you have it--Quiltlets!! </p><p>The finished size will always be 6" x 12". Borders will finish at 1". The center blocks units will vary in size. The 4" Qube from AccuQuilt will work perfect for the majority of the center blocks--a useful tool but not necessary.</p><p>Fusible applique shapes will be added to the pieced quilt top. The shapes will vary each month according to the theme of the Biblical promise. </p><p>Quilt. Bind. Finished quiltlet!!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgtUZda2MLMKXCWgVFCOY-bBtRViY4hAY0dNWgVjwLIaYIpcJfi8rzFlyb712Yj_FTUdSRFc6fMflwyA_4W8nJnQ9Hk9gh7wty0CFeRTcZumE3EPODE09Mxes7-Ht86jBTiLK6z6yCO7mOEq8JWFppSlqjKfSIph2MEr_Yv6mGO9BRLgqKUCk1BGZx9=s450" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="450" data-original-width="450" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgtUZda2MLMKXCWgVFCOY-bBtRViY4hAY0dNWgVjwLIaYIpcJfi8rzFlyb712Yj_FTUdSRFc6fMflwyA_4W8nJnQ9Hk9gh7wty0CFeRTcZumE3EPODE09Mxes7-Ht86jBTiLK6z6yCO7mOEq8JWFppSlqjKfSIph2MEr_Yv6mGO9BRLgqKUCk1BGZx9=w400-h400" width="400" /></a></div><br /><p>This Metal Star Stand by Stacy West of Buttermilk Basin, is what I will be using to display my quiltlets.

As per my usual style--very casually!!!! </p><p>The free pattern will be in my shop <i>sometime</i> on the first Monday of each month. The pattern will remain free until the next months' pattern is released. At that time it will still be available, but at a $2.00 cost. The patterns are a downloadable PDF. It will contain detailed cutting, sewing instructions and full size fusible applique templates. There will also be a quilt line drawing coloring page with some journaling space.</p><p>A Facebook live will be held on my<a href="https://www.facebook.com/lizardcreekquilting" target="_blank"> Lizard Creek Quilting Facebook</a> page sometime during the month--remember--I work casually!! Plus, I am a farm wife helper out in the hog barns and have no control over when I need to help!!! Various topics will be discussed--how to bind mini quiltlets, how to Snapliquilt, how the applique applies to the promise, how to use the 4" Qube--you get the picture--it could be anything--but it all will help you make your best project!!</p><p>Watch my Facebook page, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/lizardcreekquilting/" target="_blank">Instagram</a> or the blog for when the new Sew True Quiltlets are released.</p><p>Creekside Quilting Crew-- is a group I have setup on the Lizard Creek Quilting Facebook page.

And a lot of it doesn't seem to make sense--it feels as if up is down and down is up. This has been my nudging, to Speak Truth in Love. I have three precious grandkids--they need to know that up is really up and down is really down!! The promises in God's Word tell us so--that is something that will never change. </p><p>"Truth is so obscured nowdays and lies so well established that unless we love the truth we shall never recognize it." --Blaise Pascal a French philosopher from the 1600's</p><p>"Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and shrewd in their own sight!" --Isaiah 5: 20-21</p><p>"Never worry about who will be offended if you speak the truth. Worry about who will be misled, deceived and destroyed if you don't." --Unknown</p><p>"So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin." --James 4:17 This is the verse that nudged me!! Many years ago, I took a Spiritual Gifts course and found that presenting the Word of God in a creative artful way is a gift the Lord has blessed me with. Not using my gift for His glory would be a sin!!!</p><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEj1fM-g0phch7EtZOW9yXCnqbabcH_DfoGXJUQc6Md8aZDd2lyd9N8XcAlo5Uf_9fq8LfItLiOwermMC9NfS1zQpzAV78b8Q5eQ62bP6oRoLRsKwsnd95nCEs5rWTqpByTRq74eCJBqsfCpoKtVW7rGOlMEGYCp20zIjVAwtJBJjloAzVPBL9YBsLFq=s3601" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="89" data-original-width="3601" height="16" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEj1fM-g0phch7EtZOW9yXCnqbabcH_DfoGXJUQc6Md8aZDd2lyd9N8XcAlo5Uf_9fq8LfItLiOwermMC9NfS1zQpzAV78b8Q5eQ62bP6oRoLRsKwsnd95nCEs5rWTqpByTRq74eCJBqsfCpoKtVW7rGOlMEGYCp20zIjVAwtJBJjloAzVPBL9YBsLFq=w640-h16" width="640" /></a></div><p>PS...Like I said, this is going to be a sew along where we make Sew True Quiltlets based on truths found in God's Word--The Holy Bible.

Such a great contrast between the warm--reds, oranges and yellows vs. the cool--blues and turquoises. And as is with all Isalnd Batik fabrics, the details in the batik fabrics are so cool. One of the blue fabrics has a super cool swirl in it that reminds me of a swirl in a Vincent Van Goh painting. Like I said--I love the details that Island Batik puts in their fabrics.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvQej2xbmbdkeQFil9kLQ_Z_Y1dso4eDWW4SBmtid56oZIWJHSXDCkwW-tOCijmx2CoYL9FlQOq3DBm2hpW82ASS0CHgehVXTs5ZG7NDI8EAkw4h3ooyQEc4Z24tLhD068kU4JNDAk68c/s618/cultivate-right-half-cover-small-file.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="618" data-original-width="400" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvQej2xbmbdkeQFil9kLQ_Z_Y1dso4eDWW4SBmtid56oZIWJHSXDCkwW-tOCijmx2CoYL9FlQOq3DBm2hpW82ASS0CHgehVXTs5ZG7NDI8EAkw4h3ooyQEc4Z24tLhD068kU4JNDAk68c/w414-h640/cultivate-right-half-cover-small-file.gif" width="414" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;">From the designs I submitted to Karen, she choose this design--Cultivate to be made with Vincents' Garden fabrics.

Reflect the Lights' journey started January 2017.

The class is still taught at the store or you can find <a href="https://sewing-mastery.teachable.com/?fbclid=IwAR07CNWbGn-AFI5k50duA_Q9PEPxVuV53ltcl1GFgUqBGyuGCPkWh9jCWY8" target="_blank">sewing machine brand specific online versions at Teachable.</a></div>

"Stars don't shine because they want to be seen. They shine because they are stars."</div>
--Alexander Den Heijer<br />
<br />
Low volume quilts--quilts with backgound fabrics that read as a light but have a subtle secondary pattern on them--were just starting to become popular during 2016. The thought of making a Stitching Cosmos quilt using low volume background fabrics and a rainbow of thead colors intrigued me. Would the thread--and in turn the stitching--become the star of the quilt? I was ready to find out.<br />

All of the stitching you see on this quilt was done with the decorative stitches in my machine--you know those 10,000 stitches that are so pretty, but you have no idea what to do with??? Stitch them out!! Use them.<br />

Each monthly lesson would focus on a new techinque. Pintucks. Spanish hemstitch. Couching. Metallic thread. Double needles. Bobbin work. Combine them with the decorative stitches to create a thing of beauty!<br />

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. " 1 Corinthians 13 : 4-7<br />

There is a great little pasture on the edge of town where these horses graze. The golden hour in photography was approaching. So I coaxed my dear husband to get in the Ranger and off we went into town.<br />

Cast Iron finishes at 64" x 80", so it is a great size lap quilt. While it looks super complicated, it is actually strip pieced into 8" blocks. Color placement is key to creating the zig zag effect. Pattern includes a detailed color combination chart along with a coloring page to come up with your own color placement!! Both print and PDF download patterns are available on my website<a href="https://lizardcreekquilting.com/" target="_blank"> Lizard Creek Quilting.</a> Use the code CASTIRON in my shop for 30% off the PDF download until 2/7/2020.<br />

Here we are....the 30th of December-2019..what a whirlwind of activites this past year has been!!! And I have enjoyed every minute of being an Island Batik Ambassador during that time...but have decided to let the experience go so that I can make time for other new and exciting things to come!!<br />
<br />
But let's leave that for another time...and move on to my last monthly challenge--make something 3D with Island Batik fabrics!!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The weather is cold and frightful with a strong north wind today--so the thought of taking photos outside--just went out the window--as I took this photo out my studio window!!<br />

My concept for this 3D design challenge started long ago when I was at Spring Market in Kansas City. I was browsing in <a href="http://www.fatquartergypsy.com/index.html" target="_blank">The Fat Quarter Gypsy's booth</a> and fell in love with their <a href="http://www.fatquartergypsy.com/Pop-Ups.html" target="_blank">Windsock Pop-Ups. </a>She offered me a pattern in return for mention in the blog post. You have to go check out her designs--they are amazing.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The pattern comes in booklet form with step by step photographs that were easy to follow. Some of the steps may seem a little tricky--but just follow the pattern--and it will work perfectly!! Finally cutting the spring loose was my favorite step!!<br />

As you can see by comparing above photo with pattern cover, I don't always follow directions well!! I chose to put a traditonal sawtooth star in the pop-up portion of my windsock. I used the <a href="https://www.accuquilt.com/go-qube-mix-match-6-block.html" target="_blank">6" Qube from AccuQuilt</a> to cut out the star pieces.<br />

I chose the enclosed seams option for the tails--and by using a different fabric on the back--such a wonderful riot of color I should get when it blows in the wind. And yes, I did actually lay on the floor to get this shot!!!<br />

I just had to figure out a way to get a blowing in the wind photo....so here the windsock is...hanging in my open studio door!!! It took a few shots to get this lovely swirl of tails, but oh so worth the cold!! Good thing nobody drove by on the road and saw this crazy quilting lady taking photos in an open doorway with her pj's on!! But now you know the behind the scenes!!<br />

So it is....I close the door on this time as an Island Batik Ambassador. But have no fear, I still have plenty of batik fabrics and ideas left!! Plus, I still plan on designing patterns with their amazing fabrics!! Thank you to Island Batik for this AMAZING opportunity--I am forever grateful!! To the other sponsors--Aurifil, AccuQuilt and Hobbs Batting--thank you!! And to The Fat Quarter Gypsy for this super cute project!!!<br />

Oh man--how did it get to be 7 days away from Christmas?!?! Harvest was long and hard on the farm here at Lizard Creek--so there needed to be some rest and recuperation days taken!!!<br />
<br />
I did make some time to use one of<a href="https://www.accuquilt.com/" target="_blank"> AccuQuilt's </a>new fall release dies--the <a href="https://www.accuquilt.com/catalog/product/view/id/14336/s/go-santa-stocking" target="_blank">GO! Stocking #55854</a>. As part of their new GO!Getters program--I get to come up with amazing projects using their dies--which I am given by them--and then write a post for their blog with all the specifics on how you can make the project also!!<br />

Now to Luxury Holiday Stockings...funny backstory to both of the fabrics used in this project!!<br />
<br />
I was cleaning out a sewing room cupboard--you know one of those lovely corner ones--yeah--I took out the spinning thing--to make more storage room--and sometimes it just becomes a catch all place.<br />
So in digging to the back of the cupboard, I unearthed this peice of upolstery fabric that I had purchased when we were building the house. I was going to have my sewing chair recovered with the fabric. Well that did not happen--but I still loved the color!! In popped the idea to make Christmas stockings that would match my decor!!!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNuoDG1Cb06HsuCWqLcANMClfXdfnthOxL4ZiSLku_OeingWNTZLlja7E03LlvBaOwEL9zUMPU5W_md3_EoULPZHAWDTW-TS0ftdRGnvctGVPWGuaCMf0QZL1aDGN55znDdNL3OC4Avk8/s1600/fur+cuff+in+garland.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="625" data-original-width="1600" height="250" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNuoDG1Cb06HsuCWqLcANMClfXdfnthOxL4ZiSLku_OeingWNTZLlja7E03LlvBaOwEL9zUMPU5W_md3_EoULPZHAWDTW-TS0ftdRGnvctGVPWGuaCMf0QZL1aDGN55znDdNL3OC4Avk8/s640/fur+cuff+in+garland.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
So I pitched the idea as a GO!Getters project of using unusual fabrics with AccuQuilt dies! Great idea--project accepted.<br />
<br />
Now, let's get to the faux fur backstory. My friend, Lois and I go to a sewing club at Heirloom Creations in Sioux Falls once a month--and have done so for almost 20 years. We take the day off from quilting and farm life to learn new things at sewing club, catch up on each other's life over lunch and do a little errand shopping. We always have a great time and I highly suggest this practice!!!<br />
Well on this particular Tuesday in September after an outdoor lunch downtown, we went to the local JoAnn's where I purchased several different faux furs to try for this project. We finished our shopping and went home--nothing unusual so far!!<br />
Later that evening, around 11:30 pm, Sioux Falls was hit with a tornado--right through the center of many businesses and the heart hospital!! There were no fatalities--thank the Lord!!! But the strip mall where JoAnn's is located was severely damaged!! And has not been open since!! You don't realize how much you use something until it is gone!!<br />
<br />

October is here, along with a new challenge for the Island Batik Ambassadors. Make a holiday runner that includes applique. Well, I have had an idea running around my brain this summer so this is the perfect opportunity to bring the idea to life.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdqdybNms_ucoTW5JOOHd7Rz5rwdEkqtVWNei9cdhBnQgPY5XEL4TNKbY_yl3xCjWPY-A80AfzErx61LCt9nDWc7kajrN4OjMZ6gp-jTcPQSR0YopNP6IOyyADgBVDflxC0S2FPOscjXo/s1600/13.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="450" data-original-width="600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdqdybNms_ucoTW5JOOHd7Rz5rwdEkqtVWNei9cdhBnQgPY5XEL4TNKbY_yl3xCjWPY-A80AfzErx61LCt9nDWc7kajrN4OjMZ6gp-jTcPQSR0YopNP6IOyyADgBVDflxC0S2FPOscjXo/s640/13.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
I started with fabrics from the Foundations line--Custard and Smoke. The strips were torn along the lengthwise grain of fabric. Because of the tightly woven nature of batik fabric--tearing the strips is easy and quick!!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJX06InoyG1WBSIj7C-0UpMD9Rz88-nd66PIntCILPrHJ9b7Sbq7M9rLq91wiOx0sWadeTv1x-6r0m44izBkEeN3Shw8mIJ5e8oWuajIvyUVnMhCmP4w51Ak-uuQrPJtziFWBVK0sFNyw/s1600/12.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="450" data-original-width="600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJX06InoyG1WBSIj7C-0UpMD9Rz88-nd66PIntCILPrHJ9b7Sbq7M9rLq91wiOx0sWadeTv1x-6r0m44izBkEeN3Shw8mIJ5e8oWuajIvyUVnMhCmP4w51Ak-uuQrPJtziFWBVK0sFNyw/s640/12.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
To keep my seam allowance accurate and straight, I used the seam guide for my 97D foot on the Bernina 790.<br />

Now for the applique. What I thought was going to be a simple addition of letters to the runner, ended up taking me MULTIPLE tries!! But I persisted, because I was going for a specific farmhouse look for this runner. Most of the tries were user error on my part. I was torn between matching the letters to the stripe or making them from the solid black batik.<br />
<br />

Using a ruler to align the black solid batik letters across the runner end worked so well!!<br />

I wanted this runner to have more of a farmhouse feel than a quilty feel--so a faced binding was just the right choice. <a href="https://thesillyboodilly.blogspot.com/2012/09/tutorial-super-duper-easy-way-to-face.html" target="_blank">Having never tried this technique before, I searched Pinterest and used the tutorial I found HERE.</a><br />

Well now, this is something to be checked off the quilting bucket list!!<br />

<span style="color: #393f44;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>

Just look at this stack of glorious color!!! So many possibilities--a summer sunset, zinnias in the garden or anything else in your imagination!!<br />
<br />
The colors that jumped out at me were the turquoise ones. I have loved turquoise jewlery since I was a little girl when I purchased my first ring at the county fair. I was fasinated by the fact that the stone was mined in the desert, as I had never seen a desert growing up in the farm country of Minnesota.<br />
<br />
So I set about to bring that memory to life in this quilt using <a href="https://lizardcreekquilting.com/shop?olsPage=products" target="_blank">a pattern I designed Come Into View which you can find HERE.</a><br />
<br />

The Tree of Presents wall hanging set my brain into motion--and that can be dangerous!!<br />

So since I have more ideas than time--I recolored this design with fabrics from Island Batik, added the text, and finally some ribbon curls!!!<br />

How fun would it be to have a Birthday banner to personalize, one for the summer holidays or one just something to remind you that every day is a gift?!?<br />

<br />
Welcome to the first day on the 2018 Christmas Collection blog hop. Nancy Scott, of <a href="https://masterpiecequilting.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Masterpiece Quilting </a>has compiled an amazing selection of her Christmas projects and published them into this easy to read book!! The projects vary in size from small wall hanging to bed size quilts and everything in between. You can <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Masterpiece-Quiltings-2018-Christmas-Collection/dp/0692199160/ref=sr_1_1?crid=21OTO5SHGBPM2&keywords=nancy+scott+christmas+collection&qid=1563669414&s=gateway&sprefix=nancy+scott%2Caps%2C407&sr=8-1" target="_blank">get your copy on Amazon here.</a><br />

<br />
While most of the projects in Nancy's book are colored in the more traditional red, gold and green--I took the Let's Gather table runner in a different direction. I have a small collection of vintage Shiny Brite Christmas ornaments that I use to decorate my basement family room at Christmas time. This table runner is the perfect size for my table down there!! So these glorious shades of colors from Island Batik are just right!!<br />

<br />
Don't you just love a fabric closeup!! While Nancy's cutting directions are very well thought out and easy to follow I like to use the AccuQuilt cutting system.<br />

<br />
Here is a hint when working with a multi color batik....after piecing all the small components of the blocks, I like to match up the multi colored parts to the colored parts for a pleasing arrangement of color.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Since I chose to make each block a different color--I find it helpful to play around with the color arrangement until it is pleasing to your eye.<br />
<br />

Lately these long, gently wavy and overlapping lines have been my quilting design of choice on small projects. 40 wt Aurifil thread gives such great definition to the stitches. I find the design to be softly modern--meaning not as harsh as dense matchstick quilting--yet still gives a nod to the modern end of the spectrum. So a just right happy medium!!<br />

What appealled to me besides the generous 16" x 72" size of this table runner was this super cool end treatment--it looks way more complicated than it is--and you will have to get the book to find out!! Well worth the price in my opinion!!! Love how it looks!!<br />

...The challenge for July is sponsored by Aurifil--use 3 different weights of thread along with fabric supplied by Island Batik to make an art type quilt. I have an inspiration for this project--but no actual plan--this one grew as I went along. So how about a few ways I used the threads first!!<br />
<br />

Aurfil 40 wt thread was used to machine embroider this collection of sea shells. The design is one that is built in my Bernina 790. I haven't used the embroidery attachment for two years--oh was it fun again!!! The thicker thread gave such great dimension to the design. 50 wt is what I usually piece with--so just imagine that the 40 wt is a smidge thicker.<br />

After some free motion quilting and decorative stitching--again with 40 wt Aurifil I added some simple hand stitches with Aurifil wool floss. Amazing texture was achieved with both thread weights.<br />

<br />
Here I used a 40 wt to free motion quilt the background word along with a line of single letters that spell out the same word I quilted. 28 wt thread was used to edge paint these shapes. The thicker thread makes it so that less lines of stitching are needed to fill up the space around the edge of each shape.<br />

Showing more of the edge painting, free motion quilting and decortive stitches. I also used the Aurifil wool floss to hand sew the binding down with a running stitch. LOVE this!!!!<br />

Now for the inspiration...Balance...a condition in which different elements are equal or in the correct proportions--"try to keep a balance between work and relaxation".<br />
To try keep our life in balance we took a trip to Carlsbad, CA this winter--nice to get some sunshine while the weather was frightfully cold in Iowa.<br />

While driving on the Costal Highway we stopped in a cute little town--Del Mar--where we walked along the beach until it started raining!!<br />

The vast amount of rocks on this beach were in colors that I don't normally see--who knew there was such beautiful turquoise colored rocks?!?! What fun I had collecting and making the tower just right!!<br />

My treasures from that trip--a couple of shells, a piece of sea glass and a heart shaped turquiose colored rock that was on the top of the rock tower--I really wanted to take the large one on the bottom, but didn't want to overweight our luggage!! All to remind me to keep BALANCE in my life!!<br />
