Digitizing 401

I did it! I purchased online sessions for digitizing through Anita Gooddesign. I‘m so excited to learn how to create my own digitized designs. 

Why Quilts cost so much!

For those of you lucky enough to have someone love you enough to make you a quilt...  Appreciate it.  Blood, sweat, tears and money went into it.  Take care of it, do not use it as a dog bed or moving blanket. Wash it with care, ask someone who knows what is the best way to preserve it.  It is a work of art.

Dog Friendly Embroidery Resources

Saw this posted in a group, so naturally, I had to make it! I can’t stop laughing when I look at it!  😂 🐶 💩  It is a free design from 10 Embroidery (website is https://shop.10embroidery.nl which apparently is a Dutch website, but they have an English version of the website if you scroll all the way to the bottom). This was done in a 4x4 hoop, but they have larger sizes if you want to hold more than one roll of bags. They also have different designs for different breeds of dogs, but this one was free.

Quilt Batting

Do you have a favorite kind of batting? I‘ve used both A & C. They both worked fine for me. It's up to you what you use. No choice is right or wrong, it's what you prefer to work with that's important. Try quilting small projects like wall hangings, mug rugs, table runners and so on with different types of batting to see which suits you and your machine best. I personally use whatever I have on hand, which might be cotton, poly, or even a fleece blanket! A will give you a fluffier quilt. B will give you a thinner more dense quilt and C is for a full size quilt but you can also cut it to the right size. C is my favorite 

Allergy Mask for Heather

Heather called me and requested a face mask stating “Rock & Cow Proud”. She mentioned that their governor referred to her small rural towns as not mattering because they are nothing but rocks and cows, and he just put out his executive order for face masks. So she figured if we they have to wear them at work she would like it to say rock and cow proud. Things we do for our kids.

My new little Aerogarden

My super awesome husband surprised me with a new Aerogarden and on day two my baby lettuce has already begun to sprout. I like this newer version of Aerogarden so much more and it takes up less space.  We purchased our “ here ”, from  Amazon

Mesh bag for face mask

Found this video today and definitely plan on giving this a try next week. I hate how my face masks get all wrinkled after I wash and dry them. This could definitely be a solution to my problem.
