Tickled Pink Blog Hop, Day 3, My Day
The Tickled Pink Blog Hop started on Monday, hosted by Carla @Creatin in the Sticks. We were challenged to make something pink, or something that tickles our fancy.
Pink actually is my least favorite color, but I love these blog hops as they challenge me to do something out of my comfort zone.
About the time I was thinking about what I was going to do on this blog hop, I won a $25 gift certificate to In Stitches, a quilt shop in Dixon, CA. As it is about 40 minutes from me, I decided to make a trip over to spend my gift certificate and I came up with some great pinks. While I do have pink in my stash, it is mostly in my Civil War reproduction fabrics, and I didn't want to use those.
Another reason I wanted to be in the Tinkled Pink Blog Hop was that I have no Valentine's pillows. I had found a cute gnome Valentine pattern on Embroidery Library. Those little gnomes gave me a hard time. I had to embroider the design twice. The first time I got halfway through the first hat and my red thread kept breaking. I kept backing up and redoing it, changed reds, changed needles multiple times. I had already spent a couple of hours on it. Decided to try it again the next day with yet another red, and it worked fine.
The heart that says "All because two people fell in love" sentiment came from my Cricut Design space. I used iron on vinyl, and used scraps from the pinks to make the other two strip pieced blocks.
I had thought of doing another cushion, a bench cushion, but never got that far. Then Monday, Valentine's day I was reading my email. I get notified when Angie Padilla has a new design. I have always loved her applique, but never joined her Bits and Pieces Club. I joined when I saw this Love gnome mug rug. I have loved gnomes for several years now. This morning I discovered if you are part of her Bits and Pieces Club, she has a BOM with gnomes in it this year! I am so excited!
Lastly is a picture of my beautiful rose-colored camellia my daughter and I found on one of my bushes out back. It is huge and tickles my fancy!
Thanks so much for stopping by. The full hop schedule is listed below. Be sure and stop and visit the other bloggers. There are a lot of great projects! And many thanks to Carla for another wonderful, challenging to me hop!
