Just when you thought it couldn't get any cuter! The Giraffe has friends!! AMAZING!<br />
<br />
Cyndi says:<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">I love anything African and have been collecting everything scrappy that could possibly represent the colors and patterns of Africa. After making the giraffes I felt like it wasn't complete - that it needed something added to it. Jonas and I went through all the African animal choices (I nixed his tongue-in-cheek idea of a mother baboon picking nits off her baby) and we settled on elephants. He designed the silhouettes and I did the rest, using many of the same fabrics as the giraffe quilt. I love the "made fabric" method of quilting and already have my next idea for a larger quilt made with these interesting, unique and awesome blocks!</span></div>

Cyndi Z Made this adorable made fabric quilt and added Giraffe Silhouettes<br />
and she is making a partner quilt with elephants as well! SO SWEET! I love it! <br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13.200000762939453px;">My husband and I love African-themed quilts. I have a large basket of small scraps of prints that I use in my quilts that are not officially African in nature but evoke to me the color and vibrancy of Africa. I did not know what to do with all of my small scraps until I received your book as a birthday present last year! It was the perfect solution for me. My husband drew up the mom and baby silhouettes and I used diluted Liquid Thread (my favorite way to add applique to a piece) to secure them until I was able to quilt them down. We live in a small 100 year old farmhouse in NH. All 7 of our children have grown and gone and we are down to living contentedly with our 5 cats. </span><br />

I received it and made my additions and unwillingly sent it back into the group, even though I really wanted to keep it. The next person, Heidi @ Red Letter Quilts added more and really did a great job keeping the mood and style of the piece.

<b>Last week: </b></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">
Yesterday I attached all my dresdens and as I did, I remembered what you said about conjuring up happy memories from the past. My dresden looked just like something my Gammy would have had in her china. She was an amazing seamstress but only did fine sewing: embroidery, smocked dresses for me etc. So I knew I wanted my dresden to connect to Gammy. So I searched through my basement and found 12 damask napkins that Gammy had monogrammed for her mother-in-law, my great grandmother, “Gee Gee.” While they are around 100 years old, they have been cared for well and when I used to put on the dog for family and in-laws, I would use these napkins when I entertained, washing them immediately and ironing them and putting them away carefully. It just so happens that I am Gee Gee’s namesake so her monogram is MY monogram!</div>

<div style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">
I found these napkins, set aside the few with worn holes etc and found several that didn’t have any problems and realized I was going to put my dresden on one! I love how the outer points look, so I am not going to sew them down, instead, I am going to make radiating quilting out from the center, stitch in the ditch, avoiding the corner monogram. Then I think I’m going to cut a monogram from another napkin and put it in the center with tiny piping of yellow around it. At least that’s what I was planning in the middle of the night! Heh heh (No one in my family entertains like this anymore so I don’t mind cutting up some of them, to give them renewed life in a different way.)</div>

The center monogram isn’t scaled and you can’t see the yellow much, but do you think appliquéing it to the center would be a good way to go.</div>

Thanks again for the techniques you taught but also the idea that quilters can gain much joy from connecting themselves to family members from the past who deserve a type of resurrection!</div>

<b>Follow up: </b></div>
<div style="font-size: 14px;">
This weekend I finished my “Three Grandmothers” wall hanging. I am happy how it turned out and think your recommendation of yellow for the piping/border was right on! I am pleased to give my great grandmother’s damask napkin new light, especially since my grandmother hand embroidered our monogram on it to give to GeeGee as a gift. I figure they are about 70 years old. I cut up a second napkin for the monogram square in the center. The yellow piping/binding is fabric that has all the different names for grandmothers.</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 14px;">
Thanks for the inspiration and the encouragement to look back to the women who came before me. As I sewed, I thought of them and how fascinating it would be if this napkin could talk!</div>

I started playing in my strip tub one day and began pulling out the black and white strips and sewing them together. Then I decided it needed some color and I added in a little bit from the other strips in the tub. Once I was done playing with it I put it on the wall and walked away for a few days. However, it kept calling me back and it needed to be a pillow. That meant adding a little bit more to make it square, quilting it, putting a back on it and putting in a pillow form. This was a lot of fun of just playing with strips and then of playing with the quilting. </div>

The quilting is free motion large flowers in two different thread colors all over the top and then the space is filled in with lime green vines and leaves. Lots of fun playing in the studio!</div>

I thought long and hard for my word for 2015. There are so many good ones; create, learn, grow, love, live, lift etc. I finally settled on improve. I felt it encompassed all the others.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Wabi-sabi meaning - Imperfect, Impermanent and Incomplete</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Imperfect? - yes, a tiny bit of fabric not completely stitched down ….</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Impermanent? - I guess so, somewhere down the years ….</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Incomplete? - yes, my intention was to have outline quilting around the letters,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but I haven't done the quilting ….</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so a very basic work but I have enjoyed working on this little piece.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Completely unrelated to the above, I received my copy of </div>

Awhile back my orphan bin was overflowing. I started pulling bright happy blocks and throwing them up on the design wall. Arranging them to fit and filling in the wholes with scraps this is the result.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBvnTiANr41b-R0GgQWGif5qmjgPZb4NnkhyphenhyphenSUNdoSyvUTWh8hIjEIIpIZAG5MCQLduUKTdMafdEluT1FKhoJY72QBJE2p-IJsv8mBgXYmAdzY1Dcbkw77LY_wmSlCQOMT80fxZLOwy8bm/s1600/DSCN1078.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBvnTiANr41b-R0GgQWGif5qmjgPZb4NnkhyphenhyphenSUNdoSyvUTWh8hIjEIIpIZAG5MCQLduUKTdMafdEluT1FKhoJY72QBJE2p-IJsv8mBgXYmAdzY1Dcbkw77LY_wmSlCQOMT80fxZLOwy8bm/s1600/DSCN1078.JPG" height="400" width="300" /></a></div>
I know that Victoria calls her quilts like this everything but the kitchen sink but I like to call my Plan B. Each block was intended for another purpose that just didn't work out. The label on my original Plan B quilt read. <span style="background-color: white;">"<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13.1999998092651px; line-height: 18.4799995422363px; text-align: center;">Made from blocks intended for other quilts. Test blocks because sometimes it's a good idea to make sure everything fits before you commit. Orphan blocks, because some blocks are so fun you get carried away. Mistakes, not failures, but lessons learned. Healing blocks made by friends. And scraps because when life falls to pieces remember there is always plan B. And life is all about how you handle plan B." </span></span><br />

My word for this year:<br />

Because I often feel I'm quilting on a deadline--related to either when a project needs to be done, or when I have to stop sewing to make dinner, entertain kids, go to bed... It's too easy to sew rushed and focus only on the end result, rather than enjoying the process as I go. </div>
<div class="separator" style="background-color: white; clear: both; color: #222222; font-family: Tinos; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.5599994659424px; text-align: left;">

So for 2015, I will savor my time quilting. I will stop and smell the roses, to use a tired cliche, and pay attention to what I'm working on rather than just how close I am to finishing. </div>
<div class="separator" style="background-color: white; clear: both; color: #222222; font-family: Tinos; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.5599994659424px; text-align: left;">

<span style="line-height: 21.5599994659424px;">A little bit about the techniques I used here. I pulled out a bunch of orange scraps to create some monochromatic made fabric. I did applique last year, so I wanted to try a new and different technique for the letters this year, and freehand stitched cursive seemed like a good idea. I wrote the word on the orange fabric with a washable fabric marker, pinned the fabric to batting, and started stitching with my free motion foot. I used four or five different blues, ranging from sky blue to navy, and traced the word multiple times with each color. I wouldn't say I'm in love with the final result, but I'm glad I tried a new technique!</span></div>

my friend Kim showed me her word..........<br />
<br />
She said:<br />
<br />
My word for 2015 is a throwback to 80's/90's urban slang....WORD! I love the many meanings, especially the word of truth. Word? Word!<br />
<br />
I mixed embroidery - some chain stitch, backstitch, stem stitch and running stitches with some simple hand appliqué on an old piece of linen. And pulled some binding scraps to finish it off!</div>
