Journey to Nebula

 I am going to do a block of the month in January 2021 called Nebula. The pattern is by JayBird quilts and the fabric is Tula Pink. To get us ready for the project, JayBird quilts is conducting a free Journey to Nebula. One week she released a video on cutting out your fabric and the next she does a video on sewing your project together. The first was called Seaside and it is a table runner. I did mine in Christmas fabric

This is the finished table runner. (update - sold to Nikki Anderson for her Mother-in-law for Christmas 2021.)

This is an upclose view. I used Glitter thread and straight line quilting to finish it.

Our next project was a pillow using the Lucky Charm pattern. Again I went with Christmas fabric.

Here is Jawbreaker - I really liked the process on this one. Putting binding on the edge instead of turning it inside out.

Next up was Rock Candy. This one I actually used Tula Pink fabric and I made it to go on our new table. I love the way it turned out.

Final project - Gazebo

This one has not been quilted yet but I'll post another picture when I finally get to it.

Family homes

 I have been visiting some of the homes of my family members:

This is the house where m father grew up in Nashville, located at 906 North 14th Street

This is the home where my grandparents lived (my dad's parents) when I was growing up in Nashville. It is located on Live Oak Drive in Nashville.

This was my Grandmother's house when I was growing up. It is located on Highland in Sparta, Tennessee. My sisters, cousin and I spent many hours playing on the porch and in the back yard.

This is the house on the farm where my Mom grew up. Her family lived there until she was a junior in college. The family that purchased the farm from Granny still own the house. It is located near Sparta in the Cherry Creek area. Beautiful home.
