<b>I have had an incredible opportunity fall into my lap. One in which I can use my strengths as a music teacher and a fabric artist to the best of my abilities. When teaching music, I always try to teach my students using good, quality materials while equally encouraging them to express themselves with creativity and ingenuity. I believe I have come up with a wonderful way to do just that.</b></div>

<b>What are Zwubber Bands, you ask?</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>They are 7 foot long stretch bands that come in rainbow colors; red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, in rainbow order. What makes them unique and different from other stretch bands is that they can be used no only in a circle but in a straight line as well!</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Each 7 foot band is closed with a light-weight buckle (which is secretly an extra-strength, crush-resistant buckle). This allows you to increase the size of your stretch band simply by adding on another 7 foot stretch band! You now can go from one class to the next class, adding or removing a band as you need. You can even separate the bands into small groups if need be, quickly and easily during class. It literally takes seconds to add or remove additional bands. Using Zwubber Bands is not only convenient, but easy and cost effective as well. </b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Comparable stretch bands may come in different sizes, but are not interchangeable. You would have to purchase each size individually in order to switch sizes. That doesn't sound convenient, easy or cost effective to me, just sayin'.</b></div>

I have made and completed 3 baby quilts, a retirement quilt and have had a few "in process". All of my quilts are of my own design. It is part of the process that I love so much. So here they are, quilts of 2019:<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
Front of a baby quilt for my great nephew born in January, 2019. It was made in the colors of his parents wedding to represent their love coming together to create this beautiful new life.<br />
<br />

<br />
Finished in May for 2nd grand nephew born in June, 2019. A Block Sampler quilt of my own design for a baby born with the last name, Block.<br />
<br />
Then we pop over to the Retirement Quilt!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<img alt="No photo description available." height="640" src="https://scontent-sea1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/60988093_10157191693771797_8479147164730130432_n.jpg?_nc_cat=110&_nc_oc=AQmmtp3XWzFw2ZIv8N71eIy93vL9HIfc-vmdZ2-nCxoYI_QfdnRMlM10fW6iimxZjU4oIKUDdC1kTv3mt7EMaU0W&_nc_ht=scontent-sea1-1.xx&oh=1e6785cba5b3c99b13a84cc19df6b481&oe=5E0389BA" width="476" /><br />
<br />
When it first began - the first day, shall we say? I had about a week and a half to finish it, so it had to go quickly. The ties, I stole from my boss's office. He never noticed they were gone. I chose all polyester or cotton quilts so the entire quilt could be washable. I like my quilts to be USED. The giant tie in the center is made from quilting cotton in my boss's favorite colors - purple and pink.<br />
<br />

<br />
Day 2.<br />
<br />
<img alt="No photo description available." height="480" src="https://scontent-sea1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/61667260_10157217850806797_4140804444252012544_n.jpg?_nc_cat=106&_nc_oc=AQmzf8oSdi2Ywg794HcIzBvrRgjlGpXpono40IXuVUmCD44H8ajQ0ZkypWtCgbhaO4f7ppEMHpm7Jtn2x_7x5Ipn&_nc_ht=scontent-sea1-1.xx&oh=706957fc6b254778606f334af56d64be&oe=5E0DC5D9" width="640" /><br />
<br />
Completed. For my boss who retired the end of the school year. Delivered June 6th, 2019. He wore a tie every day to school and would gift ties to kids that were exceptional examples of being a good student.<br />
<br />
Back to baby quilts...<br />
<br />
<img alt="No photo description available." height="480" src="https://scontent-sea1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/69177765_10157395460556797_721814183745683456_n.jpg?_nc_cat=107&_nc_oc=AQk7YS2TinDYTB603YNzY3EuTdWF6sSrCWTGYV3CcM-9AoHLaqmhktZF1tKX_TvRcQF5tsl-q1m9h-0JiFx47w0N&_nc_ht=scontent-sea1-1.xx&oh=ba4818fcf397371aebeb8b59b91ef1e1&oe=5DCD4DB6" width="640" /><br />
<br />
<br />
This one was completed and gifted in August for a baby due in October. They don't know "what" it will be yet, but will be surprised when it is born. I chose this pattern because I found it bright and cheerful and felt it was not gender specific.<br />
<br />
Here it is when the quilting was finished:<br />
<br />

<br />
And Back.<br />
<br />
<br />
As I stated before, I also have some others in the works. I am hoping that I can complete some more and post them very soon.<br />
<br />
Here is one of them. Quilt top made in same design as the "Block Sampler", just different fabrics.<br />

<b>Bottom edge: I found that this can be a little frustrating due to the fact that the recycled jeans can become very thick the more you fold them. I will share how I decided to hem it, but an easier option could certainly be to hem with the bias tape (if that is how you would like to do it, do not turn a 1/4" as listed previously). </b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Fold up the bottom edge 3/4". Top stitch the folded edge FIRST and then sew the hem down. You will notice from the photos that there can be a little buckling on the hem. Pin, pin, pin.</b><br />

<b>OR instead of a bottom pocket made of fabric, you can remove the back pockets from the jeans and sew them to the apron. * Word of warning* - I did not center the seam when I cut the apron in green, and so I could not center the pockets according to the "seam" in the middle. Looks a little off, doesn't it? SO, make sure you center that seam before you cut the leg.</b><br />

First time sewers will need step by step guidance to complete this project. It can be a very satisfying project to use as the beginning sewer continues on their learning path.<br />
<br />
Happy Sewing!<br />

**All of our "Teaching Kids to Sew" projects are designed for beginning sewers to learn during our Sewing Camp to be held at Clackamas Park Friends Church in Milwaukie, Oregon, June 18-22, 2018 for Session 1 and July 30-August 3 for Session 2 from 10-3 daily. For more information, please contact the church at office@cpfchurch.net or me, Lavonna via this blog.**</div>

Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-547277882972192285.post-3486283097054367582017-08-05T16:56:00.003-07:002017-08-05T16:56:49.459-07:00Garden Quilt in the MakingToday I decided to share a project that I am in the process of making. I was inspired by a picture I saw on the interwebs and then began to make my own version. I am always in the need of a hand project that I can take with me to work on. Small projects work best, but big projects that can be broken down to little parts work just as good.<br />
<br />
This project which I am naming Garden Quilt, was chosen in order that I could use the plethora of 5" charm pack squares that I have ready to use. I also enjoy crocheting and so this project combines my favorite hobbies, quilting and crocheting together in one.<br />
<br />
I am part of a charm pack club where I receive 4 charm packs a month for a discounted price. I have been receiving these for about the past 2 years or so. Since I don't get to choose the charm packs, I sometimes end up with fabric that I normally would not choose for myself. Sometimes, you receive some that inspire perhaps a different idea that you may not normally make. This is kinda one of them.<br />
<br />
So, I have about 5 or 6 of these type of charm packs in my stash currently that contain floral designs in 5-7 different colors. White, pink (red), blue, yellow, green, grey and a touch of purple (I personally wouldn't mind if they added a little more in the purple shades). They are all very pretty and very floral in design.<br />

Here is our first hand sewn project. You will need 2 different colors of felt and either cookie cutters or card stock for patterns.<br />
<br />
We will be using cookie cutters for our patterns. I traced the heart shape onto paper and cut around it adding a generous 1/4", traced that onto card stock and created the larger heart in that manner.<br />

I will begin teaching a couple of kids how to sew this week at my Quilters and Crafters meeting at the Church and I have decided to share the projects we will be working on here on my blog with complete instructions and photos for us to reference as I teach them. Feel free to sew along!<br />
<br />
We are going to start with a simple Tissue Holder using the tissues you can find at the dollar store (8 for $1). I am sewing in orange thread to help for you to see the sewing examples. I have green thread in the bobbin for the same reason.<br />

We had the family over for the 4th of July. It gave me a great reason to create something new for the table.<br />

I started with slightly elongated hexagons cut from 5" charm squares. I chose blue, red and combinations there of.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I put them together in a random pattern. I asked the advice from a sweet girl at church and she chose to mix up all the colors. I agreed that it would look good and pieced it together that way.<br />

I had a template for the apple core shape and I cut several from brown, green, red, orange, yellow, black and cream colored 5" charm squares. I pieced it by hand and quilted it with a simple meandering stitch. I bound it in several different colors cut on the bias.</div>

This is a present for my Assistant Principal who will be leaving our school for a new position at a school I taught at for 3 years prior. It could be a difficult position for it is known to have had conflict in the past few years. I know that she will have no problem befriending the staff if she is simply her bright and cheery self. They will LOVE her! I want to encourage her as she moves on to her next endeavor, so I have named the quilt, "May You Remember to Shine".<br />
<br />
I just so happened to pick pink as the border and backing before finding out it was her favorite color. I "knew" it just needed to be pink somehow.<br />

I will be gifting it to her on Monday with the message that it is to serve as a reminder to be her bright and cheery self and for those days that may be a bit more difficult, she could wrap herself up in it and know that she is wrapped up in love.<br />
<br />
There is a lot of love in this for my friend. I believe my son knows that already:<br />

It is not without mistakes. None of my quilts are. I quilted it all with a meandering stitch in order to complete it quickly. I wrapped this all up within a week and a half. It contains 128 charm squares in 8 rows of 16. I then added borders to have a finished quilt measuring approximately 95" by 90".<br />

Last month, we moved to a new home - OUR OWN home. I finished this lovely flimsy right before we closed on the house. It has been completely hand pieced and is waiting to be quilted.<br />

Each diamond is different and made from charm square fabric that I receive every month. It has been a wonderful hand project for me over the past year. I think that I started it sometime last summer, but I am not certain.<br />

I am now attending a new church which has a Quilters and Crafters group that meets every Wednesday. Since I am on Summer break from school, I can now take part in their weekly meetings and create along with them. I have only been there one week and have already unknowingly influenced one of the members to get a new sewing machine that she can drop the feed dogs and quilt with. I will be posting more as I work on a weekly project with these wonderful ladies.<br />

<br />
I have always been a "traditional" quilter and lover of any quilt that is scrappy. Crazy Quilts have been my favorite for it seems like forever. I love being able to make something beautiful out of bits and pieces that have been "thrown away" sew to speak (pun intended) .<br />
<br />
Since I recently finished the last of the quilts for my kids/step-kids, I have decided to branch out to making quilts for my nieces and nephews who have gotten married. I don't know if there is a limit on making wedding quilts and delivering them, It has been a little over 2 years since the first nephew was married. Instead of a wedding "gift", can I call it a "in celebration of your wedding" quilt?<br />
<br />
I decided to challenge myself by branching out into the "Modern Quilt" design. Something that I have NEVER done before. I chose to make a quilt using my nephew's and his wife's favorite colors from their wedding - teal and kelly green. They chose to do such a beautiful thing as a part of their ceremony - they took colored sand and poured it into another container to represent their union. I was so touched by this beautiful display of their love for each other that I decided I needed to represent that in fabric.<br />
<br />
Months ago, I began setting aside fabrics in the shade of green from turquoise to dark green and many colors in between. I made the decision to use 2 1/2" strips.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5iGESfk5dY1M8nm2QSyaOIG8krKDjSeNmvlJQWyp4ZHgWt6T2VTzQ3AyQO64iPJ4FOTCwzviKXOP7ka8rx4PJFYUXk_xGv0Rg9iv-hRhXk9Zjcx2wloP6l5ORyXhcmRVr4wHjAGpWSgM/s1600/IMG_4033.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5iGESfk5dY1M8nm2QSyaOIG8krKDjSeNmvlJQWyp4ZHgWt6T2VTzQ3AyQO64iPJ4FOTCwzviKXOP7ka8rx4PJFYUXk_xGv0Rg9iv-hRhXk9Zjcx2wloP6l5ORyXhcmRVr4wHjAGpWSgM/s640/IMG_4033.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I looked at many modern quilt designs and decided that I needed to choose something "manly" as this was for my nephew and wife. I finalized on creating a mainly white quilt with 2 sections of color.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I chose to quilt it in a simple all-over meandering stitch.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I enjoyed creating this so much that I am contemplating creating another one just for me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I look forward to hearing how the "not-so-newly-wed-anymore's" like it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The past few months have been filled with a very long and emotional journey which as of today could finally be wrapped up and put away. I now choose to face the next journey life has to offer with new energy and a bright outlook, for I refuse to let the difficulties and disappointments of life get me down.<br />
<br />
I just came back last from a little mini-vacation with my husband where we spent some beautiful peaceful time on an island in the Puget Sound area. This was the view from the backyard.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We were able to relax and fill our days with whatever we wanted. We visited museums, enjoyed the variety of spectacular views that the countryside had to offer, shared some delicious meals, relaxed some more and I sewed as my husband read to me from a book we are reading together. Yes, my husband reads to me. Really romantic in my view. We both enjoy the process.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I wanted to share some of the projects I have been working on, but first, I must share the back story: I have been sewing a lot by hand lately to help with some complications I have been having neurologically as of late. The past couple of years, I have been having to deal with a rather complex health issue, all complications of my genetic heart condition. I do not have heart disease, in fact my heart is "healthy" and to quote my cardiologist, my arteries are "clean as a whistle". The problem is electronic, and because of my heart choosing to beat to its own drummer so to speak, my nervous system is overloaded and causing problems with all of the areas of my body that are controlled by the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS). The umbrella term is Dysautonomia, meaning "a rare disorder of the autonomic nervous system". I can lose my ability to think clearly and become very lethargic, stumble when I walk or lose my balance, have tremors in my hands or not be able to use my hands all together, have "twitches" in my diaphragm causing me to not be able to breathe, seizures, digestive issues, muscle control... the list goes on and on.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Last Summer, we went from Doctor to Doctor searching for solutions to help me to be able to simply live a life as close to "normal" as possible. We finally found a Chiropractic Neurologist that was ready to face my problems head on and help us find some solutions to bring my body back to something that somewhat resembles normalcy. We began exercises and routines to help to create new brain pathways and re-train my brain and nervous system to be able to function properly. One of the solutions we have found was for me to concentrate on actions that require me using my right hand. Sewing by hand has allowed me to focus my brain on the task resulting in being able to help control the seizures and lessen the neurological episodes that I am plagued with. So to put it bluntly, sewing is my therapy.</div>

I have 2 hand projects in production right now using Downton Abbey fabrics in both the inspiration and the making there of. I wanted to choose "older" patterns that look as though they could have been made in the teens and twenties of the 1900's in order for the DA fabrics and others that I consider more "period-esque" to be viewed as perhaps more appropriate in the production of those patterns.</div>

It is a 4-patch strip quilt. I quilted the 4-patch strips in a meandering stitch to represent the twisting and turning of life, and the solid strips were quilted in "bricks" that fit together and create a "foundation" in between the colored bits and pieces of the 4-patches.<br />

<br />
My husband has challenged me to complete all of my UFOs. This project is one I initially began in 2001 and then put the blocks in a ziplock for years. I finally completed them for my son as a Chiristmas gift, 2013. Ok, so it took me until July to get it done - took me a while due to my illness over the last 6 months, but hey, now it is done!<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
The pattern is my own along with the outside border design. The quilt was made using a lot of charm squares that I had traded in the late 90s. It uses a 4 patch center, dark and light fabrics along with teal squares.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
There is a teal square throughout the design creating a chain and 9 patch effect. The border is a zigzag pattern of dark "flying geese" triangles that is found in the basic quilt square design. I chose to put it in the border to tie the entire quilt together. The teal 9 patch is also in the corners to complete the theme. I quilted it in a grey stipple design.<br />
<br />
Thanks for stopping by!<br />

<b>Pathway to Healing</b></h2>
<br />
It has been a long time since I have had the opportunity to quilt, let alone blog. I have had a very busy school year. I've been working full time (which is wonderful), but I have also been struggling for the past 4 1/2 months with some very frustrating health issues. I believe I am finally coming to the end of the frustrations, meaning that we are close to a diagnosis, but we are certainly not done with the illness. If it is what we believe it is, there is no cure and there is no "getting better". I will have to learn to manage all the symptoms and try my best to make the most of the good moments that I do have. I need not go into the details here - this blog is here for other purposes.<br />
<br />
<br />
I would like to present my latest quilt which I have entitled, "Pathway to Healing". It is based upon a simple Jacob's Ladder or Buckeye Beauty block which contains Two 4-patches and 2 Half Triangles.<br />
<br />

I made 24 blocks for the center using a variety of colors from the last of many charm blocks that I had traded and received about 20 years ago. I needed a pattern that I could use both dark and medium colors against a light silver background that I used as a backing in a previous quilt.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
I then made some additions to the outside edge creating a finished edge. I added a 2" border in green, repeated the "alternate pattern" in the border and then another 2" border in green for the outside edge. It is bound in the same green.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The main body of the quilt is quilted in spirals to represent the confusion and dizziness that I currently have to deal with with my illness. In the green borders, there are 2 wavy lines quilted in, and in the main border, the spirals are continued and then the wavy lines continued in the outside green border. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I feel that the continuation of the 2" squares across the quilt creates the "pathway" across the quilt. One can choose to change to another path of squares if they wanted I suppose, for the movement continues throughout the quilt design, however some of the pathways come to a dead end. Just like I have had to come to many "dead ends" in my search for a diagnosis and cure for my illness. We may not have a cure, but I still choose the pathway toward healing and I choose to not let it stop me from enjoying my life in the process.</div>

I find that quilting for me, IS my healing. I enjoy creating quilts so much that they are truly what help me to get through each day having to deal with a chronic illness. I choose instead to let the creative process help me in my healing and in having to cope with my new disability. The opportunity to express myself through fabric and create something that can be used is so very important to me. I strive to do it whenever I am able.</div>

I am a lover of scrap quilts. Being able to take small pieces of fabric, putting them together and creating a beautiful quilt that can be used and loved by others brings me such joy. It represents my life, really. The broken pieces and small colorful bits are combined together to create a thing of beauty. My hope is that my life then can be used and loved by others and in turn bring them joy as the making of quilts brings to me.</div>

Thank you for visiting today. May you be able to create beauty in some way today, whether it be by quilting, writing or even perhaps giving someone a smile. That too can be a thing of beauty.</div>
