I figured I better let you in on why that is. I have been busy getting ready for Spring Quilt Market. That is in Pittsburgh this spring, pretty darn close to home. So I have been working on a few new things to show.<br /></div><div>I have also had a change in my job situation. I found that I really didn't have one anymore. Not in the true sense of the word. So after much thought and consideration, and tons of encouragement from DH and family. Burning The Midnight Oil Quilts will be getting a store front. The Grand Opening will be on June 6th! So come and see me.</div><div> </div><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_SquzLZLS5Hs/SelvgG2hLDI/AAAAAAAAAH8/7gQvbALBdks/s1600-h/building1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5325910631728098354" style="WIDTH: 307px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 262px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_SquzLZLS5Hs/SelvgG2hLDI/AAAAAAAAAH8/7gQvbALBdks/s320/building1.jpg" border="0" /></a></div><div> </div><div>8845 Wattsburg Rd.

I can't believe how time flies when you are having fun. I have done a few trunk shows and classes, I will post pics later. But here is what I have been working on the last couple of days. I think he is turning out sooo cute! Still need to do the hand embroidery and quilt him. And then write the pattern, but I had to share! <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjI2mxn5N9U8eFiEoKJhzugWuh101LzP8FZUYOEmRCugoSGdf76wk_cR8kR9ULl6SlJxdb8jdY1zTlxh8OE6VICQsFRpIJInINCFfQ5gYhmr7jt5_R98_wylu2rFyTjL3GABr90YEQbSIc/s1600-h/snowman+pic.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5313829056529852626" style="WIDTH: 228px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjI2mxn5N9U8eFiEoKJhzugWuh101LzP8FZUYOEmRCugoSGdf76wk_cR8kR9ULl6SlJxdb8jdY1zTlxh8OE6VICQsFRpIJInINCFfQ5gYhmr7jt5_R98_wylu2rFyTjL3GABr90YEQbSIc/s320/snowman+pic.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />I have finished quilting, glitzing and writing the Poinsettia one. I will post photos later. Still need to get the bow tied just right. I hate that part. The latest installment for the online BOM just got uploaded this weekend too. And I designed a new quilt for Blank Textiles. I will post the link as soon as it is up. Other than that, not too much to show. A lot of boring things as I get ready for spring quilt market...58 DAYS!!! Talk to you all soon.<br /><br />Happy Quilting!<br />HeatherHeatherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17315385020351280576noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4915387406398773602.post-2454280963355616372009-02-04T19:58:00.004-05:002009-02-04T20:08:34.516-05:00A Nice Super Bowl!<div><div><div>I spent the first part of Super Bowl Sunday in one of my favorite spots...A Quilt store of course! I went to The Sewing Loft in Union City, Pa. They were having a Super Bowl Sale, a Soup tasting and an impromtu Trunk Show. It was so much fun. And I still made it home in time for Pizza and the game!</div><br /><div>The Sewing Loft showed off thier quilt for my "Piece Your Heart Out Sampler" that I designed. They are doing it in two color ways. The one that is finished was done in Thimbleberries and the blocks that are on display are done in 30's fabrics. I thought you might like to see some pics.<br /></div><br /><br /><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299112975431663730" style="WIDTH: 274px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUnKlWYcfKA_VjNLHP6WC_9nlZLCORARJcxAZmmlJ4voX8WXQ04ns2LQFP9Fdwgk-w_ywoMqd7xL-abf8dDZbo7fZM5G6LMyTHG7Upzx5CVe_n-Ci1hmpQud3NT75B-BMlnCV1cQvFtkY/s320/100_0136a.jpg" border="0" /></div><div><br /> </div><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_SquzLZLS5Hs/SYo7YLYpYSI/AAAAAAAAAFU/RJoC_jbhGl0/s1600-h/100_0138a.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299113198113874210" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 140px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_SquzLZLS5Hs/SYo7YLYpYSI/AAAAAAAAAFU/RJoC_jbhGl0/s320/100_0138a.jpg" border="0" /></a></div><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_SquzLZLS5Hs/SYo7kOh3BaI/AAAAAAAAAFc/Gg_kzfXZGNk/s1600-h/100_0139a.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299113405116253602" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 165px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_SquzLZLS5Hs/SYo7kOh3BaI/AAAAAAAAAFc/Gg_kzfXZGNk/s320/100_0139a.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwPH-KS95Ubjpb9Z-1g5qKoxFlQJg3KNGOMfQWu_DJoc9rGe1d5GMXP4FNab6MbYyaMkSujOynTHP9kDH4zN7wSzUHvYI4ZXg6wPYo87zWBR2o_yeOtrEWdYom0aYM-kTRALV4fa6vZco/s1600-h/100_0141a.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299113771767959090" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwPH-KS95Ubjpb9Z-1g5qKoxFlQJg3KNGOMfQWu_DJoc9rGe1d5GMXP4FNab6MbYyaMkSujOynTHP9kDH4zN7wSzUHvYI4ZXg6wPYo87zWBR2o_yeOtrEWdYom0aYM-kTRALV4fa6vZco/s320/100_0141a.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div></div></div></div>Heatherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17315385020351280576noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4915387406398773602.post-65253223237981858612009-01-26T18:35:00.003-05:002009-01-26T18:42:40.559-05:00New This Week...<div>I have been debating on posting a new picture of step 3, which I have completed. It seems a few followers would like to figure out the math ahead of time instead of wait for me to post. This poses a question...why should I bother to do the work if you all are going to do it for me! LOL So now I don't know if I should post what I have been working on and have you do it through the whole project...hummmm. Such a quandry. I have decided to post it though, because not all of you will try and draft your own, so here is what step 3 will look like.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyzPPq-Mv0j8uuE6q8aGOs-uLqTMruPi2f4xdrO58nhozgGDMqXYyPDAO1ksr5S8BdcQPBKFdx99LlfXR8-VI7pwSchMBMOSREd1UsJ9tTbKTq4Qa6Dt5fnEcqNx5JhX_xgLtBZmekMc4/s1600-h/step+3.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5295751252026943138" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 167px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyzPPq-Mv0j8uuE6q8aGOs-uLqTMruPi2f4xdrO58nhozgGDMqXYyPDAO1ksr5S8BdcQPBKFdx99LlfXR8-VI7pwSchMBMOSREd1UsJ9tTbKTq4Qa6Dt5fnEcqNx5JhX_xgLtBZmekMc4/s320/step+3.jpg" border="0" /></a></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div>I also finished writing all the patterns and the teachers guide for "Piece Your Heart Out Sampler".

First was a quick Charm Square Runner from Anika's Treasures.<br /></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlXdqXC4qocNgdmIicOSd3J29-ZidGcTNACiakFZqClaqXsjNjQVJA0z6tGPY3HoRmfWgNu6C7HA8gRRwziv3zZDtdG0Ri3sRrhxgSxyEK-acVAS3R1GWcoc0s0B6pcM7LPvnPTCM6qLs/s1600-h/charm+runner.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5289273188729056402" style="WIDTH: 129px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlXdqXC4qocNgdmIicOSd3J29-ZidGcTNACiakFZqClaqXsjNjQVJA0z6tGPY3HoRmfWgNu6C7HA8gRRwziv3zZDtdG0Ri3sRrhxgSxyEK-acVAS3R1GWcoc0s0B6pcM7LPvnPTCM6qLs/s320/charm+runner.jpg" border="0" /></a></div><br /><div>Then I made The "You Go Girl" Bag from Tammy Tad Designs. It doesn't look like much hanging there, but this bag is HUGE! I wanted a big bag to take to guild with my show and tell in it, and my friend Cheryl made me one! I decided to make one for the store. Still needs a button.</div><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_SquzLZLS5Hs/SWdGnMOtwwI/AAAAAAAAADI/ITKzmTj0xeI/s1600-h/You+Go+Girl+Bag.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5289273926481724162" style="WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_SquzLZLS5Hs/SWdGnMOtwwI/AAAAAAAAADI/ITKzmTj0xeI/s320/You+Go+Girl+Bag.jpg" border="0" /></a></div><br /><div></div><br /><div>And for my personal sewing. I know we just finished the holidays, but I don't have anything Christmas to show when I go to Market (124 days). So Here is what I started last night. Actually I started two things when I realized I need ribbon for this one! But I only have the one picutre right now. The bottom half will have the pocket and the centers will be glitzed.<br /></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFRlqm5qwDV299eMGoLOPKwCX8iIIvjPPlT6OXzq4AUKx6byBSoSn1xXUDKw9vwzr7xzQyGBf2OUg9jAcXUexKq78nn71oB9MNhyDmjP13GIVHCELHt-GJ7lnVy0tgzffZieWPj2JO_aw/s1600-h/poinsettia+ap.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5289274818775531042" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 291px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFRlqm5qwDV299eMGoLOPKwCX8iIIvjPPlT6OXzq4AUKx6byBSoSn1xXUDKw9vwzr7xzQyGBf2OUg9jAcXUexKq78nn71oB9MNhyDmjP13GIVHCELHt-GJ7lnVy0tgzffZieWPj2JO_aw/s320/poinsettia+ap.jpg" border="0" /></a></div><div> </div><div>I will show you all more as I get things done.

It blended too good. You couldn't see it next to the white background. So I tore it apart, made a ruffle with fabric and put it back together. I think it looks better now! Now I can go to bed and not have it on my mind.

I had a list of what I needed for upcoming projects, and am VERY proud to say that I didn't come home with anything other than what I need for these future patterns.

The Glitz came in the mail yesterday and I spent most of my night glitzing away. For those of you who don't know what Glitz is, it is a type of gem that has a glue on the back. You use a wand (looks almost like a soidering (sp) iron) to heat the glue and make it stick. You need to hold it over each gem for about 10 - 12 seconds each. Did I mention that there are 210 on my wallhanging! That is 2,520 seconds, so about 42 minutes if you didn't take any breaks AND if you were really quick about picking up the little buggers and getting them into place! Needless to say it took me most of the night :)</div><div><br /><br /></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi45v8pBIxfL-ua5qFFy_nR81Ymf62QV2FLXUkLdMrsskGwIjQEnTH7K8QWqBGHoSDc939egzlGUeTeypkrnpwhyvSpGQQWZAPsD9ZiGT3elIg341uwMdVR1FWsy-PM1STVhFRdd22u8mo/s1600-h/wedding+finished+opt.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5287039724496806562" style="WIDTH: 250px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi45v8pBIxfL-ua5qFFy_nR81Ymf62QV2FLXUkLdMrsskGwIjQEnTH7K8QWqBGHoSDc939egzlGUeTeypkrnpwhyvSpGQQWZAPsD9ZiGT3elIg341uwMdVR1FWsy-PM1STVhFRdd22u8mo/s320/wedding+finished+opt.jpg" border="0" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1aZ7W4CbL1BnEWSFmnF4501I-QSRit6pCEuOL9Zb3-zR5If7vhFLX2Cp6ZPJrXDfppABX3BnGe3nqWPGl2WBonnZph5vwAjRXX3dBcWmtKhdajbrnkMQylFlbQ-x6ngNOmrbv8lVpahY/s1600-h/100_0053.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5287040752063661410" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1aZ7W4CbL1BnEWSFmnF4501I-QSRit6pCEuOL9Zb3-zR5If7vhFLX2Cp6ZPJrXDfppABX3BnGe3nqWPGl2WBonnZph5vwAjRXX3dBcWmtKhdajbrnkMQylFlbQ-x6ngNOmrbv8lVpahY/s320/100_0053.jpg" border="0" /></a></div><div> </div><div> </div><div>I am off in a little while to go to Heartland Quilt Shop in Lockport, NY.

I hope this is a sign of the New Year to come. I got up early (not a morning person) and managed to write the full pattern for the "Pockets Full of Love-Wedding" in one sitting. That never happens! But for some reason it did today. Now all I need is a cover shot. I can't get that until I finish glitzing it, and I can't finish glitzing until the glitz shows up in the mail! So that is on hold at the moment...but so close. </div><br /><div>We then went out the IL's farm and took pictures of "Taylors Tulips". I didn't have a place big enough to take the shots at my house since it is a large quilt. We took some shots in the barn with it hanging from the loft and then took it insides and tried a few on my IL's bed. I don't think my DML wanted to give it back! :) Here are some of those shots.<br /></div><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipQpoF_SU9tNhx36UfbF3d4qDDmFCEEut2ZVMp4Dcf4jUMZ1fcBv3ywkZgF-58D9KHYY0hwNPSyBMzKbscEPQ_JdLKKUH6cRdRS3HQjpv3lyRZbAj-DpAopTvgkGgfBWLNsWvQ1uLYjjc/s1600-h/TT1+opt.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5286535774379094018" style="WIDTH: 272px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipQpoF_SU9tNhx36UfbF3d4qDDmFCEEut2ZVMp4Dcf4jUMZ1fcBv3ywkZgF-58D9KHYY0hwNPSyBMzKbscEPQ_JdLKKUH6cRdRS3HQjpv3lyRZbAj-DpAopTvgkGgfBWLNsWvQ1uLYjjc/s320/TT1+opt.jpg" border="0" /></a></div><div><br /><br /> </div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN_ovQAYXYQeBoC7-7ZvyyJxCBeW8wY6fhwptuLt51dsLvt0rMRA4QSDYcSO9-XbEyjoQRsTOvEEk5-fCcxzcRgbEdVOepQr6BzMAQksXpeIneRF25b8ks-GiALYTClVjCu392Myf7rDg/s1600-h/TT6.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5286536314348964354" style="WIDTH: 266px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN_ovQAYXYQeBoC7-7ZvyyJxCBeW8wY6fhwptuLt51dsLvt0rMRA4QSDYcSO9-XbEyjoQRsTOvEEk5-fCcxzcRgbEdVOepQr6BzMAQksXpeIneRF25b8ks-GiALYTClVjCu392Myf7rDg/s320/TT6.jpg" border="0" /></a></div><div><br /> </div><div>There were so many more, but you get the point.

That was alot more time consuming than I thought.</div><div> </div><div>Once that was done I cut out and sewed the First installment of the new BOM that starts Jan. 15th.

I need to finish my projects. Spring Quilt Market is 133 days and counting away, so I need to finish new things to have a nice showing! All I needed to do was quilt my Wedding wallhanging. Nothing big. Should have been a quick, piece of cake finish. I don't know what happened?!! I sit down at the sewing machine and my brain shut down, but the hands took over and kept on moving. This is what I have ended up with!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRQ29DmgkWnE1UwCdkjv3r7h7SS1MjMx8Ospe24sWUQoI2lsi9cbIRg3wCEaKJAIZ6y50DmHvPoS59wwfg9AHPrEc234C2xQP37lkqi8QIiqtqexI-N4f9BqwreMCxPfQu7zyO-5BL5Ys/s1600-h/pic+2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5285815960153617202" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRQ29DmgkWnE1UwCdkjv3r7h7SS1MjMx8Ospe24sWUQoI2lsi9cbIRg3wCEaKJAIZ6y50DmHvPoS59wwfg9AHPrEc234C2xQP37lkqi8QIiqtqexI-N4f9BqwreMCxPfQu7zyO-5BL5Ys/s320/pic+2.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcaP7Bel9GkJeUkndf7G_28CrLNAMw2XO6x38AQJi5hqsbxhDrigEL3J3HIHshRaOrhvpsUopKfOjLKiNgZzVpOJ0y3mQw1dkkJZHfXvgf6ocK3FTgVCcvH8ts51y6RIYblUMO7Cvwa5Y/s1600-h/pic+1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5285816763368311234" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcaP7Bel9GkJeUkndf7G_28CrLNAMw2XO6x38AQJi5hqsbxhDrigEL3J3HIHshRaOrhvpsUopKfOjLKiNgZzVpOJ0y3mQw1dkkJZHfXvgf6ocK3FTgVCcvH8ts51y6RIYblUMO7Cvwa5Y/s320/pic+1.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Now I ask you, does this look quick! Here is my problem, I love to doddle with free-motion. I don't think I could do a large meander if my life depended on it. So I just made my job more complecated than I had to! I will make sure to post the finishe project when it's done.<br /><br />I better think about heading to bed...but Burning the Midnight Oil is what I am know for.<br /><br />Till Next time...Happy quilting!Heatherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17315385020351280576noreply@blogger.com0
