<br />
This quilt top has been done for a few years. Tanya basted it about a year ago.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVrhz4JPrOuwPqOcAahEOjg-jjMy8-bdWAYE_qluLULaUvMD0p64wUxRkwKYT1UEJpYRuroTAmyd28tHawNgFOYVM0KwHfpn4zj5YDnH0cMKbWQxGjvagHqUe86ZP7Oi9-4dZSy96_ujE/s1600/DSC_0066.JPG" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVrhz4JPrOuwPqOcAahEOjg-jjMy8-bdWAYE_qluLULaUvMD0p64wUxRkwKYT1UEJpYRuroTAmyd28tHawNgFOYVM0KwHfpn4zj5YDnH0cMKbWQxGjvagHqUe86ZP7Oi9-4dZSy96_ujE/s400/DSC_0066.JPG" width="300" /></a><br />
<br />
She gave up on me on quilting it and decided to do it herself.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjk3i71lSKE_bBhQRgONJ5I0iLlJ82aNZ1Vd8TitMhE5UNNG0zv2M_AxEirGiwmLE3YIAyc6-vwC3xkwOvX80p7dWBoeBJrHlworslbqXvAESEEvvdPn2mejSnxQRAZ0MCaB5mIdBcGySM/s1600/DSC_0068.JPG" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="257" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjk3i71lSKE_bBhQRgONJ5I0iLlJ82aNZ1Vd8TitMhE5UNNG0zv2M_AxEirGiwmLE3YIAyc6-vwC3xkwOvX80p7dWBoeBJrHlworslbqXvAESEEvvdPn2mejSnxQRAZ0MCaB5mIdBcGySM/s400/DSC_0068.JPG" width="400" /></a><br />
<br />
It is only the second quilt she has quilted.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNErrfxQ9vbLfFwR3DhZXq7tYNrUsegARUg2ZoW2QoJsMbwj5QVXVWTch5l3d1fq0RyoNy7XCAlv4p_CmlWOf3nhL-aVoCc9QNrDvVpMNXb2eg1wM9_v9nF1RgBrI3_a1_xro5qlgbe4E/s1600/DSC_0070.JPG" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="268" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNErrfxQ9vbLfFwR3DhZXq7tYNrUsegARUg2ZoW2QoJsMbwj5QVXVWTch5l3d1fq0RyoNy7XCAlv4p_CmlWOf3nhL-aVoCc9QNrDvVpMNXb2eg1wM9_v9nF1RgBrI3_a1_xro5qlgbe4E/s400/DSC_0070.JPG" width="400" /></a><br />
<br />
If that isn't enough of a shock, she bound it to. She has been practicing on binding pot holders.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<br />
She even personalized it with the new babies name and birth year.<br />
<br />
<br />

Hopefully the new mom enjoys it.<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Julia has been pestering me to let her make some hot pads for her friends mom. I finally relented this last week and let her do it.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Julia is growing up. Its funny to think 8 years ago she is what caused me to start quilting. I know in the last 4 years I have almost vanished but my little princess is making me make a return.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Julia did not do this all alone. I cut out the squares for her and sewed a few of them together and helped thread the machine. But most of the actually sewing she did.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I even let her Iron. I almost got away with it (Tanya did not know that I let her play with the hot iron) but well the burn on her had gave us away so I got caught.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

All in all she did a pretty good job and did not burn the house down and only burnt a small mark into her wrist. It will heal but the memories of her doing this on her own will last forever.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Julia picked all the materials out for these. We are making another few quilts and these were left over squares that she stole for this project.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

She even basted the hot pad on her own and pinned it.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

She also quilted the hot pad. Don't look too close at the lines as they are not all that strait but all in all it looks good.<br />

Today is Julia's B-Day she turned 8. She was really sad that she was not able to have her friends over for a party or go out to dinner like we normally do for Birthdays. We did get her some lunch that we picked up from Cafe Rio that was really good.<br />
<br />
She got a pair of skates and lots of other presents but still was some what bummed out as the world tried to cancel her B-day. But lucky for her we did it any way.<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Sadly it has been too long since the last time I made a post. I figured it was about time. It has really been a long time since I have done any quilting. I sorta lost my way. Over the last 2 weeks I have done a few smaller hot pad projects and I figure they are a good enough excuse to post and share them.</span><br />

Tonight I finished my purple Granny Square Baby Quilt Top. This is made from 2 1/2 inch purple blocks. Originally we bought these colors for Rebecca's wedding quilt but she well has since broken up from that um relationship. But even before the brake up I started this quilt as I love the Granny Squares and I love purple. And well Babies need quilts so hey what better then to make them a quilt. I cant believe that Julia our Baby is now big enough to hold my Baby quilts up for me.<br />

She insisted on helping me cut all the blocks apart when I sewed the blocks together. We originally did the granny square blocks back in January so its been a full 6 months since these pictures were taken so she has grown up a ton since these pictures. Its amazing how much 6 months changes a kid when she goes from 5 1/2 to 6 years old. The 4 block that are sewn on on the picture just below this line and in the picture on the desk next to Julia are a hand sewing project that Julia decided to do. She wanted to<br />

make a blanket for her cat and dog for her doll house. They are extremely cute. She has hand sewed some of her stuffed animals together and she has even helped me sew a few blocks from time to time on a few quilts here or there when she does not drive dad completely crazy. Not that you would expect a 6 year old to drive dad completely crazy but she does.<br />

I am still looking for those that are interested in trying out my <a href="http://craftlovers.net/" target="_blank">http://craftlovers.net/</a> to go give it a try. It is a free site to use you can create a user account and share any crafting hobby like quilting, knitting, pottery, wood crafting etc. I am looking for people to try it out and add some items and give me feed back on the user experience. I need to know what makes sense and what does not. What I can add to be more user friendly etc. I am creating the site to be a place where I can share my quilts and where others can share their crafts and hobbies. I of course dont want it to only be me using the site so I need others that would be willing to use the site so that I alone am not using it. Again Check it out <a href="http://craftlovers.net/" target="_blank">http://craftlovers.net/</a></div>

Hello, for those that have followed my blog in the past you will most likely be shocked to see a post from me it has been way too long. I have to admit I have been out of touch for a while. The past year has been Crazy at the Healey house. My oldest daughter was engaged. Then she was not. Then she was and then she was not. She has also totaled 2 vehicle's in the last year. Once her fault, one some one some one else fault with a car that she had for less than 6 weeks. Needless to say a run of bad luck for her.<br />

I have done some quilting. I started to make a purple and gray quilt for her wedding and then got distracted making these grannies squares. But all of that got pushed aside. With the wedding off, the desire to finish the quilt is lost and well the project is just sitting on the table in one of those disgusted piles of why did I buy that much purple fabric piles.<br />
<br />

I do enjoy cutting things up into 2 1/2 inch squares so it will be fun to dice and splice it into them and then turn it into quilts. But then again that is not really why its been sitting in a pile.<br />
<br />
In February, we found out that we were expecting, only for it to be short lived. In March, we found out that we were pregnant with twins, only for them to find no heartbeats. Not our first miscarriage, but still hard none the less. <br />
<br />
Last April was Tanya's and mine 25 wedding anniversary and to celebrate we went to Arches National Park in Moab Utah. When I was a kid this was one of my family's go to vacation spots. For our first wedding anniversary, I took Tanya there. <br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEio7zUIn1GjX2PpZshkEu-ovQrt2yDh_HNcovI4v5rZMdKBaw61QxMljZ1Q7fYQN5l-DZa7nfaiOsJU2o6KcYEw0nbiKHt6ebulyF6doXJu8VTovdlrxCqlIPSYalaEiJG5DLCFV5yVUcc/s1600/20180330_191637.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEio7zUIn1GjX2PpZshkEu-ovQrt2yDh_HNcovI4v5rZMdKBaw61QxMljZ1Q7fYQN5l-DZa7nfaiOsJU2o6KcYEw0nbiKHt6ebulyF6doXJu8VTovdlrxCqlIPSYalaEiJG5DLCFV5yVUcc/s200/20180330_191637.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
Only to find out that the Jeep Safari was held that same weekend and it also rained the entire weekend. Any way she hated it so bad and never got to see the Arches at all and it took me 24 years to get her back to the area. After 3 days there. I think she loves it and can see why I loved it and will come back with me again. Any way after a fantastic weekend, I was on a complete high.<br />
<br />

<br />
I came home from vacation and went back into work the following Tuesday morning and to my total amazement got let go from my job after working for the same company for 11 years. Needless to say this ended the high from my weekend and sent my life into a tail spin and I have spent the last couple months reevaluating what I find important in life.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVYWVDXjF7cJIQl0Lmi6VVPxqyEbRKromvixRhCj9aj9pZneIEwOoUFxlEo8O0w_dfUKJjUNY1GZNxruz6LItNgJ6kMnU7eHEWwotoQ1g1Az6srrvtjSEZ1xf4JR2bmmNTIYJClKuT6kc/s1600/20180401_131102.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVYWVDXjF7cJIQl0Lmi6VVPxqyEbRKromvixRhCj9aj9pZneIEwOoUFxlEo8O0w_dfUKJjUNY1GZNxruz6LItNgJ6kMnU7eHEWwotoQ1g1Az6srrvtjSEZ1xf4JR2bmmNTIYJClKuT6kc/s400/20180401_131102.jpg" width="400" /></a>The funny thing is that it only took my previous company 8 days after they let me go to realize that they did not know what I did. They contracted with me to fix a problem with their system. This happened a time or 2 more, until 3 weeks later, I was back working full time as a contractor for them. I am no longer a "Full Time" employee for the company and I work from home, but I still do the same job and well I get paid more money as a contractor then I got paid as a salary employee. Though I do have to pay the Cobra insurance which at $1500 a month, about made my mouth drop. Though now I have to figure out how to pay my own taxes at the end of the year, which is going to suck. I have no paid vacations or sick pay or any thing of the like, but well my commute to work is great. I walk across the hall and I get to see my wife and kids a lot more.<br /><br />

My baby is growing up and getting big. As part of my seeing the world in a new light I have decided that I need to get serious with the other big love of my life and that is programming. I am a programmer by trade, but my job has sorta slowly lead me away from truly programming and I am more an analyst and trouble shooter now. So to learn my skills and polish up my skills I have decided to build a new site and learn better my trade of programming. For those that know anything about programming I program in C# .NET using MVC which is a web development language. <br />

Any way I have created a website called <a href="http://craftlovers.net/" target="_blank">http://craftlovers.net/</a> this site is a place where I can show off my quilts. But not only can I show off my quilts the design of the site is that others can also showoff their stuff as well. What I would like for you my friends to do is go give my site a test drive. You can go look at the items already listed on it. If you desire you can Create a "Company" which is just a profile that you list your own items under and then add your own inventory to the site. The site is intended for any kind of craft or art. The above picture is a picture my Daughter Julia wanted to add to my site. She tells me it is for sell for 6$ its an original art work by Julia. My site is still under construction and is changing slowly day by day and adding new features. What I would love is for you to add a company. Add a few items. Then send me an email at my home email address rhealey101@gmail.com and let me know what you think. Any suggestions, comments, ideas for features, improvements, even things you hate are fine. My wife tells me I need to change the picture up-loader to allow more then 1 picture at a time (future plans). Any way please go check out my site. And if you create an account and add at least 1 item I will send you one of my pdf patterns of your choice if you would like for free. You can pick from any of the patterns we have listed on Craftsy or Etsy the links should be here on the blog. <a href="http://craftlovers.net/" target="_blank">http://craftlovers.net/</a><br />

The back of the quilt is off white minky. Both of these quilts were made for a lady Tanya went to high school with. When we had Julia in our late 30's early 40's Tanya decided to make a quilt for everybody her age that she went to high school with that had a baby from that point. There were only 49 people in her class and not many have babies in their forties. She had twin girls at age 43. This is only the 3 rd quilt we have given to former classmates. </div>

We are alive and have been quilting, we just haven't been blogging. We have posted several pictures to Instagram, and a few to Facebook. You are probably going to get overwhelmed with finishes in the next little bit, but not as many work in project posts. </div>

<span style="text-align: start;">This quilt top is made completely from our stash. It is from the fabric line Bungle Jungle. We did have to buy some gray fabric for back. It was made in September of this year for a baby shower. It was made for somebody from churches new baby boy.</span></div>

This is funny was going though old blog posts and found that I created this post long ago and never posted it since I finished the binding yesterday on these I thought I should share this. yes we have many ore then the first 3 to finish they are just the start. Any way below is what I wrote a year ago when I first started these.</div>

Kind of a blurry picture but above you can see my nearly 2 inch tall stack of strips. To give context to their size its 4 1/2 inches wide. I do not ever make one thing at a time. Its more like a dozen projects started at a time. One day I am going to have to catalog all the 1/3 way projects I have done in the past.</div>

It has been way too long since I have posted a blog post and I guess that has to change. Any way this last week Jared has been at scout camp and I went up to visit him his last night. While up there, I found this spider and it looked cool so I gook a picture. It goes well with my post so, I thought I would start with it.</div>

The back of the quilt is a star minky. Tanya knows how much I hate to quilt minky and I think that inspires her to keep buying more and more minkey to make my quilting more dificult. Good thing it looks and feels so nice on them.</div>

Last year after Christmas and the previous year we bought a bunch of fabrics to make Christmas Stockings for family and also to sell. We thought it would be great to have some table runners, stockings and pot holders for craft fairs. We have finally have started to get some smaller stuff up on <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/RichardQuilts?ref=hdr_shop_menu" target="_blank">Etsy</a>, with plans to be able to do a craft fair next year. We also are making stockings for family.<br />

I have been selling patterns on <a href="http://shrsl.com/?eykq" target="_blank">Craftsy</a> for a couple years now and recently <a href="http://shrsl.com/?eykq" target="_blank">Craftsy</a> has changed and I am not sure if its for the better. One big change that I think is for the better is that you can now rate craftsy patterns easier. These two table runners are created using a pattern that I sell on <a href="http://shrsl.com/?eykq" target="_blank">Craftsy</a>. I use to be able to add projects and link them to this pattern, but because of the changes I no longer can link new projects up. Sadly that means I can not link up these two finishes. I would like to try and get better ratings on Craftsy and as such I am looking for people that can add a review to my <a href="http://shrsl.com/?eykq" target="_blank">Diagonal Table Runner.</a> I will give anyone a copy of my pattern just for commenting here on this post or on my facebook page (make sure I have a email to send the digital pattern too). If you like it please give a me a good review on <a href="http://shrsl.com/?eykq" target="_blank">Craftsy</a>.</div>

This was supposed to be a baby quilt when it started. When I designed this out in EQ7, Tanya told me it was a bit small, so I made it bigger. Well it went from baby size to a decent size lap quilt.</div>

It actually measures 58 by 59 inches. I was going for a modern squares look and feel, which I think turned out well. The plan was to do a pattern for this quilt which I would like to still do. I wanted it to be a baby size quilt, so I will have to rescale my quilt a little to be the size I want it to be. It was supposed to be around 40 by 40 inches.</div>

We didn't have a wide back and had already purchased the floral fabric for the baby sized version. We sewed some off white to both sides and made our back work for us.</div>

The blank space on the background was quilted in wonky boxes. The machine I used doesn't have a guide, but is much faster. The other machine finally got repaired. The third repair shop did the trick, but Tanya and I basically switched machines. I use the Janome 1600P-QC (straight line only machine) and she is using the Janome 6300 Memory Craft. It is nice to not have to share a machine again. This allows us both to work on different quilting project with out having to re-thread the machine all of the time or move each others projects.</div>

<span style="text-align: start;">This post is by Tanya, so you don't thing I am crazy and talking in 3rd person. Richard mentioned that he wanted to do some 2.5 inch blocks. I told him yellow and gray would be a great colors. They sell well on <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/RichardQuilts" target="_blank">Etsy</a> and are great gender neutral colors. He suggested orange and green. He gave in and did the colors I wanted. </span></div>

What a crazy last few months I have had. To stat with I will share the above quilt it was hanging on the wall a chapel in Tropic Utah. Whenever I travel, when I see a quilt I always have to take a picture of it. This quilt is just amazing its a little mini quilt with 6 blocks one from each ward in their stake. We were visiting the small town of Tropic, while going to my wife's grandmothers funeral. I think a sign that I am getting old is that I am running out of relatives. Tanya and I no longer have living grandparents and with both our fathers gone we only have our mothers and siblings left in the family.</div>

Today is just a catch all day for all the pictures that has been hanging out looking for a home. Last month I got to go to Girls Camp as part of the bishopric and the girls had to pose for a picture. They are kinda shy so it took 2 tries to see their faces. Well maybe they were just trying to show off their jackets the topic this year was fairy tales and the one they chose was little red riding hood.</div>

Tanya and I want to get back into the swing of things, sooner rather then later as we have some gift ideas for Christmas and we must get going on quilting if we are to get them done. This next picture Julia made me add when I was going though my phone to find some pictures to post, I found one of her and she said I must add it so here it is.</div>

Once we get on a Julia kick, we just can't stop there. We had a ward party recently and they had a pinata and I had to snap a picture of her trying to crush it . I just happened to get Jared in the shot too, so he gets some time on the blog too.</div>

A couple days ago while walking in the morning, I came across a skunk. That made me slow my walk down while he slowly waddled down the path, needles to say I kept my distance from him.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
To start off, I want to say that yes I have again vanished for over a month. There is a good reason and my life should get a little simpler in a couple weeks. Our church from time to time sends our youth on Pioneer Treks. This is to re-enact the hand cart journey to the Salt Lake Valley where we reside. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. My post will not be about the church. It it is relevant to what I have been preparing to do and what we just got back from.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For our trek, we went to <a href="https://history.lds.org/place/pioneer-story-rocky-ridge?lang=eng" target="_blank">Rocky Ridge</a> which is at the sixth crossing of the Sweetwater and also to <a href="https://history.lds.org/place/pioneer-story-martins-cove?lang=eng" target="_blank">Martins Cove</a>. Both are in Wyoming, a 5+ hour drive from where we live in the Salt Lake Valley. There were around 200 youth and leaders. Tanya and I were one of the leaders helping on this Trek. I will first talk about my quilting involved and then maybe a little about the Trek. As this is a quilting blog that is mostly what I will talk about.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Above are three quilted seat covers that I made for us. Tanya, Jared, our son, and I went. When the Pioneer's came West they were only allowed 17 pounds of personal gear (on the handcart groups) and for our re-enactment we had 5 gallon buckets to store our stuff in and they also doubled as our chairs and so these were to pad our bucket while we sat on them.</div>
