Great new free-motion quilting blog (new to me)

Greetings,   Summer has arrived in Wisconsin. yippy!  The flowers and gardens are looking more beautiful everyday.  I am lovin' it.

 So, I found this new to me free-motion quilting blog, ivoryspring.wordpress.com. Wendy is so talented and she shares with everyone. On the right side colunm of her blog she has many tortorials. I think I've read all of them.  I'm such a newbie to any kind of quilting.  *wink*  One of Wendy's tortorials was a "stitching butler" so beautiful.  A friend's b-day is coming so I found at an antique store an oh-so-cute creamy yellow cream pitcher, a covered sugar dish w/ red apple & 2 leaves handle, and a matching tray.  I bought creamy yellow material w/ tiny flowers to make a pin keep to stuff into the creamer. And a small scissors that fits into lip of the c pitcher.  The "stitching butler" was fun & very easy to make.  It was the perfect gift from my heart to a special friend.   ;-)              gas $3.58 in Wales   

 Have a good week.  Debby 
p.s. I know I need to learn how to add pics to my blog!
