Cherrywood Challenge 2020 - Princess Diana

Crazy.....

Like a fox...

This guy thinks he lives here now!!

But the really crazy part?!?!??

My entry for Cherrywood Challenge 2020

has been chosen to travel! 

(at least some one gets to travel)

The Theme was Princess Diana

and

being Canadian....I had to give it a shot!

This is the 4th time I have entered 

AND

the fourth time I have been chosen to travel!

Now that is CRAZY!!

2017 - Van Gough

Finally home....

2018 - Prince(the singer)

I think he is in Minnesota at the moment

2019 Bob Ross

He's still out gallivanting somewhere in the world.

The first Challenge I ever entered was the  Hoffman Challenge 2014. 

This Butterfly Kisses toured for a year with them.

The second was this purse for Hoffman 2016.

It also toured for a year.

Last Year, I tried the Trendtex Challenge for Canadian Quilter 

Which thanks to all of you....

Made Viewer's Choice!!

(insert bow of thanks here)

I remember when I started this one at guild,

 they all looked at me with a funny eye.

This fabric screamed 'Halloween' to me but what the heck...

I had nothing but time to lose.

I won a ribbon and 100$!!!!

I am currently finishing up 2021 Trendtex Challenge.

I love the challenges that specify

 you can only use the pack of fabric that is provided. 

One less decision to make. 

Give it a try sometime!

It makes you think outside of your box

and 

inside their perimeters!

Ps.

 Thank you to everyone guessing the date of my quilt on Facebook!

You're getting close!

 

Cherrywood Challenge

 Since 2020 did not go as ANYONE planned...

The 2020 Cherrywood Challenge 

was 

postponed to January 2021

This year the color was pink

and

the subject was Lady Diana

I am not a fan of pink

but 

being Canadian I thought should give it  a try.

This is what I came up with....

Will this one be chosen to travel in 2021?

I will let you know!

Bob is still out there touring...

Bob Ross 2019

As well as Prince.....

PRINCE 2018

My Van Gogh is home from a World Tour!

It was a show in France at the Bohin Factory!

Van Gogh 2017

If only it could talk...

What will be Cherrywood Color for 2021?

Where Did May Go??

It seems like it takes forever for summer to come

but

then it just flies by!!

We finished seeding in the dust...

so those bins should bust..fingers crossed!

Mother Nature can be one tough cookie.

Maybe she will be nice to us this year!

We got a couple new residents.

Georgia and Amber

They are due to be mommas one of these days!

We have a few hens setting on eggs...

Sewing has been on the back burner for me. 

There has been some brutal windy days 

that

 should have warranted

some inside days 

but 

cows needed to go to pasture!

But you peeps!!!

Wow!!

I have been busy shipping backs like never before!

There are some fabulous new colors and lines.

Every time I open a new box I just want to go make something with them!

These new Suede backs are beautiful.

So far they only come in these three colors!

There are some new swirls...

And some new mottled ones!

I have been trying to post on Facebook

 to

 keep you in the loop of all the new colors!

I did get my entry for Cherrywood Challenge submitted!

This year is Princess Diana

Pink is not a color I ever work with.

Can I get chosen a FOUR time in row???

We will see in July!

It was also my birthday!

I was spoiled beyond....

Colleen's carrot cake was divine!!

Lori gave me a new Mondo bag project

Mom bought me flowers

Chantel made me a featherweight Mandela with her new Cricut

There were more but I didn't get pictures!

Thanks so much everyone!

I didn't need a thing!!

Let's see if June can bring some rain....

May sure didn't!

Happy Saturday!
