Over the mountains and across the fields


Another day of travel and we are almost there.  I have to admit, driving up and down the steep, winding roads in Tennessee was no pick nick. Winding ways popped into mind and I started seeing quilt blocks and quilty possibilities everywhere.




From winding ways we went to the vast sky’s and straight roads of Kentucky, Illinois and finally Missouri.  We crossed a free interesting bridges, one particularly interesting - a flying geese bridge ! How fun is that.


Also interesting the Arc in St Louis





The bridge over the mighty Mississippi 



And the next bridge over the Missouri- a little less impressive, but still very cool!




Tomorrow on to Kansas City and set up!
Stay tuned for more photos from market ...

I can’t wait to show it to my students since it makes bias binding so easy .  Best of all, the ruler has all the instructions printed right on it, so there is never a question on how to use it.     It is 21” long on it’s longest side and has a 45° angle on one side, it is 2½” wide with an added 2¼” line for cutting binding in two sizes. Why even worry about Bias Binding? - Bias Binding is much stronger than straight-of-grain binding and absolutely essential to bind quilts with rounded corners or curvy edges.  Bias binding will smooth out around curves and make the binding lay flat and pucker free.  Once you use bias binding you will want to use it for most of your quilts -  I definitely do, even for small quilts and table runners. ...
