Beaver Camp Projects

This is Bonnie Hunter's Blue Ridge Beauty done in browns and creams.  It was only the blocks when I arrived at camp.  It's twin size now, think I will bind with a dark brown.

This is Bonnie Hunter's Carolina Crossroads mystery quilt.  The rows were sewn but I had to piece all the setting triangles at camp and then sew all together.  Will be twin size when the borders are added. 

 

A very OLD UFO that was just cut, only lap size. 

 

All in all lots of progress at camp. 

Singer 15 Clone

This machine was given to me for birthday/Christmas present I think in 1955, it was the year I was in 7th grade taking home economics.  It's badged Ambassador but the book that came with it was for a Modern machine.  All bits seemed the same and it worked very well for many years.  Was set aside for maybe twenty years.  Didn't realize it was so dirty!!!!

This is the front of the machine, didn't take a back picture.  Everything is original to the machine but I might have purchased a new motor and foot petal, not sure on that.
If you can give any info on the machine I would greatly appreciate it.  Thanks!!!!

New Purchase

This is my new purchase, can you tell me what model she is???  Thought it was a 66 but the stitch length is not the same as my red eye. 

These are the decals on the bed of the machine, there is some red in there and in the flowers

Faceplate and the tensioner is in a different place from the red eye also.

I'm sorry but I forgot to turn these first and the blog won't let me delete them and get the correct ones.  But you can see the bobbin winder and the stitch length indicator.  There are no numbers by the stitch length screw. 
I want to buy some parts for this machine but until I know what it is I can't get them.  It was electric but I want to convert it to a hand crank.  Thanks for your help!!!!

Graduation Quilt Ideas

Please let me know if these fabric will work for your quilt.  The gray and cream would be the constant with the green and gold being scrappy.

Design Wall Monday December 2, 2013

I'm excited to start a new mystery with Bonnie Hunter called Celtic Solstice.  I've started the first clue, have 74 of the 188 units needed for this clue.  I'm making a few extra to be able to make the quilt a bit longer than the 75 by 75 size given.

Hope I have enough variety in colors.  My other two colors are pink and plum.  Just using one fabric for the plum as I don't have a lot of variety with that color.  I was in a pink swap so I'm hoping that those strips will come in handy for this quilt. 

Go to Bonnie Hunter's blog if you want to see more of the clues.
