Happy Monday to you! Did you all have a good weekend?
L-man and I had a really fun and productive weekend. Saturday we spent the day on the river and I photographed him and a few friends kayaking a Class V section of the Poudre river called the Narrows. It was a really fun day!
And then today, we did some clean-up stuff around the house which included clearing some dead trees off our land. Boy I'm tired.
On Friday, Kerry and I got a couple of new patterns up on Sew-Ichigo. My Latte to Go
And Kerry's Strawberry Ichigo
We have them listed on Sew-Ichigo and craftsy.
Both these patterns are super simple and great for beginning paper piecers!
Make sure you check Sew-Ichigo on Wednesday for a brief tutorial/how-to make this Latte to Go mug rug and gift certificate sleeve
And just a bit more eye candy, here's what I'm working on for Elizabeth's quilt in the Traveling Quilts bee.
She sent along neon fabrics and her quilt is coming along so nicely!
I hope you all have a great week and see you on Wednesday at Sew-Ichigo!
hugs,
Penny

































You are something else! Talent and a daredevil too! Whoot!
Love your pats and ideas. Keep up the good work and I'm glad you made it home safe. Those trees are best gone and so glad you got that done! Don't need those when another fire breaks out. Hugs!

What a stupendous photo of L-man!
The talent you have for paper piecing designs really astounds me. You work down to the tiniest pieces and that attention to detail makes the blocks so much more realistic.

I wish I knew how to paper piece that latte to go would make an amazing pillow. I love love the gift card sleeve, too! Great work.

Exciting rafting ~ lots of white water. Loving the latte and strawberry ~ paper piecing is one of my favorite things to do lately. And, those markers are great!
