Pin Money Pursuits: Two sides to everything.......
http://pinmoneyquilts.blogspot.com/2014/05/two-sides-to-everything.html
Family, Friends, Fabric, Food, Fur, Feathers and Fascia. Sunday, 11 May 2014. Two sides to everything. A soldier and his mascot. The 25th of April marks Anzac Day for us. Many get up in the wee hours to go to dawn services across the country and 90 odd thousand people go to the MCG to watch Essendon and Collingwood play Australian Rules Footy. Footy crowds are always an interesting bunch; so many passionate, one eyed sports fans all mixed in together. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Football, yard wo...

Family, Friends, Fabric, Food, Fur, Feathers and Fascia. Sunday, 11 May 2014. What's in the box, what's in the box. The other day we went to an Auction Day for collectibles and antiques. There were boxes of crockery, cutlery (old and new). Wigs, fur coats, all sorts of antique and retro furniture and even 2 chicken incubators! We spotted a brass wood/fire box that would suit our fireplace nicely and the bonus was that it was full of "stuff". Ship on the high seas. Press studs and small scissors. Availabl...

Pin Money Pursuits: April 2014
http://pinmoneyquilts.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Family, Friends, Fabric, Food, Fur, Feathers and Fascia. Wednesday, 16 April 2014. I have a fairly extensive library when it comes to quilting books. Another of my favourites is. Jinny Beyer's Quilter's Album of Blocks and Borders. I prefer to draft from scratch rather than using the design software. I feel that I understand how a block should look as well as how it goes together if I draft manually. Jinny's book contains over 750 geometric designs and each block is sketched in black and white. The quilt...

Pin Money Pursuits: Of Scissors.................
http://pinmoneyquilts.blogspot.com/2014/05/of-scissors.html
Family, Friends, Fabric, Food, Fur, Feathers and Fascia. Monday, 19 May 2014. Any dressmaker worth their salt will tell you that there are. And the paper scissors; the ones that are used for everything else. As tools of the trade a pair of scissors is well taken care of and anyone caught misusing said tool does so at their own peril. In my home the rules are simple. Scissors with plastic handles and those that are in the stein on the desk. Another collection - pens and pencils). Kitchen scissors for meat.

Pin Money Pursuits: Back to the knitting..........................
http://pinmoneyquilts.blogspot.com/2014/07/back-to-knitting.html
Family, Friends, Fabric, Food, Fur, Feathers and Fascia. Sunday, 13 July 2014. Back to the knitting. I've decided once again that knitting is just not my thing. I've done a little bit more and have one bed sock finished but I have no inclination to do the other one at the moment. I don't like half finished projects however where knitting is concerned I can quite easily. Find more pressing things to do. Maybe some pics on the blog will inspire me to do the other sock -worth a try! So, this is how it begins.

http://pinmoneyquilts.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Family, Friends, Fabric, Food, Fur, Feathers and Fascia. Tuesday, 18 June 2013. It's my Dad's birthday today. One of my fondest memories is of him singing "Happy Birthday Sweet Sixteen". To me as it played on the radio. Pa and the lad on holiday at Lorne. The back issue is on the mend with some expert attention from. Dr Alex Baxter and Mr. Voltaren. As much as the Plan has been dumbed down to accommodate said back there is. No time like the present. SO each day there will be. Sunday, 16 June 2013. I woke...
