Look what Judy made using my free Bagel Pincushion pattern…
Here’s what Judy said in her email:
Thank you for providing the free Bagel Pincushion pattern. I made three of them this weekend. They are so much fun, so easy and allowed me to sort thru my wool remnants which is always fun. Just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your kindness with sharing the pattern.
Blessings, Judy

I remember a conversation when I was in my 40s with my mom (in her 60ss) and my grandmother, Nan (in her 80s). Nan said she had stopped looking in the mirror because she couldn’t reconcile who she was on the inside with who she saw in the mirror. My mom admitted that she was on her way to that, and I probably nodded but wasn’t there yet.
But now that I’m in my 60s, I understand more fully what Nan was saying. I tend to skim the mirror, without paying too much attention to the details of my reflection, which is why this funny made me laugh…
There are days when I catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror late in the day and am surprised to find that my hair has been living a life of its own on my head. Maybe I don’t pay attention to the mirror because I work at home most of the time but honestly, if you see me with lipstick on my eyebrows, please do let me know :-).
Lynn Lawery Hyman finished her Sizzle quilt (yay!) and she sent me a photo. Thank you Lynn, for sharing your lovely quilt with us! FYI: Sizzle was the 2019 block of month that I designed for The Quilt Show. It will be available sometime in the next year as a book/pattern from C&T.
I did some minor editing (1st photo) in Photoshop, then I did a little more color correcting (2nd photo).
Which colorway do you think is truer to the quilt? Does it matter? I like both versions so much that I couldn’t decide which to post, so you get to see them both.
Mustangmammy is this week’s winner and she will receive a set of Green Yazzii Craft Pouches. The set includes 3 individual zippered pockets have quilted fabric on one side and see-through windows to make it easier to find what you are hunting for. I use these things all the time!

Thank you for creating this pattern. It was hung at the reception hall for decorations. Love the outcome. Your You Tube videos were very helpful. I took class, but was over a year ago in Spokane, WA. One tends to forget. Again, thank you
It is so nice to see the finished quilt. Thank you, Beth, for sharing!
