Quilt News From the Valley! Happy September! Heat Wave, New Batik Colors, Walk in the Neighborhood Color it Green

A path in the neighborhood, notice the greens?
 

    I picked up some beautiful fat quarter batiks and a small floral in local fabric store.

 Time to press them getting ready for sub-cutting.
  



Hello Quilt Friends and Happy September!

This last couple of weeks has been hot around here so not much piecing has been done. I spent some time browsing the local fabric store, good sales and air conditioning. 

I did get some hand quilting done on my Orange X Block Quilt and pressed all the new batiks and the small floral fabric I got on sale. 

And I got some good quilt book reading time in, enjoying my copy of Sew Charming by Mary Etherington and Connie Tesene.

I browsed Temecula Quilt Co.'s website and enjoyed looking through their patterns and books. Sheryl Johnson's new book, Return to Temecula, looks like a great reference for inspiration.


So that is the quilt news from the valley where I've been staying in the shade and moving slow. I'm remembering to be thankful and praying for people in Louisianna suffering from Hurricane Ida.

How's your weather?

I'll be by to visit
