When I first saw this print, it evoked childhood memories of growing up in Montana with horses all around. How I was crazy about horses and loved to do paint by numbers... and it was the horse prints that I would paint. So I decided to make a throw quilt. I just needed to find the design I wanted to use and buy the fabric.</i></span></div>

Purebred is another collection in the fabulous paint-by-number style of Erin Michael. It reflects the majesty and charm of the thoroughbred horse, and was designed in honor of the year of the horse and the excitement of the Triple Crown race. Romantic florals evoke the beautiful blankets of flowers that adorn the winner’s circle while retaining a whimsical, childlike charm when mixed in a paint by number style.

Bake for another 30 minutes or until the top is lightly browned and a test stick inserted in the middle comes out clean. </span></div>

<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none; font-size: 11pt;">For this next part get out a small pot and combine the first four ingredients and while stirring continuously bring to a slight boil. Set aside and add vanilla. Take your testing stick and poke holes all over the warm cake and spoon this glaze evenly over it. If there is extra glaze on the edges just take your tester stick and pull the edge away so it falls down the sides all around. Put cake in a cool place and let cool completely before frosting! I let mine cool over night in the refrigerator with foil over the top. </span></div>

We will come back to the story of passion later. Now </i></span><i style="color: #666666;">the making of the your project... that made the little gray cells start turning colors... ( colors= all the possible ideas, and which one to use! ) The whole creating something out of nothing, that’s what makes me tick. I’m truly happy when I’m creating. I enjoy the process just as much as the creating!</i></div>

<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="caret-color: rgb(102, 102, 102);"><i>Over the years, I have dabbled in a little bit of everything from quilting, sewing, jewelry making, knitting, crocheting, soap and candle making, and many other things. I would be here all day sharing and you would get bored, so let’s move on, shall we. The one thing that has been a constant from my youth is quilting. Quilting is where I started, I was about 5-6 year old, learning to sew on my grandmother treadle sewing machine.

I mean all the pretty colors and fabric prints, then pattern designs, and machine quilting designs come into play.... the possibilities are endless! Part of this passion story is when making quilts for others... is to find all these elements that I have mentioned, that you know will resignate with the person, whom you’re making the quilt...

She has been playing in the sewing room since she was a few months old. She would be laying on a blanket that was on the floor with her toys, as she got older it became scattering my embroidery thread spools all over the floor.

She mention she didn’t have the recipe, she got it from the internet and couldn’t remember what site it was actually. I was saddened to say the least.... but I started combing the internet. I really never thought I would find it and have to settle for anyone of the other recipes I found out there on the internet. I was very shocked to say the least when I just happened to stumbled on the same picture while browsing for a Brussels Sprout recipe to try. I was on cooking.nytimes.com looking through their recipient.<br />

Truly an amazing recipe that I stumbled on while looking for a recipe to use up a over ripe bananas. Thank you Erin @ Delightful E Made.com for your wonderful Purple Ribbon Banana Bread Recipe... Of course I tweaked the recipe just a little.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Let me just say that the banana bread was gone so fast that, this will be the recipe that I use from now on when making banana bread.<br />

<span style="font-size: 17px;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 17px;">8 cups vegetable or canola oil</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 17px;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 17px;">4 cups all-purpose flour</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 17px;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 17px;">2 Tablespoon garlic powder</span><br />

<span style="font-size: 17px;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 17px;">Place the chicken pieces in a large bowl, then add the buttermilk, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 tablespoon pepper and 1 teaspoon paprika. Mix to combine. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 17px;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-size: 17px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: 17px;">Working in batches and being careful to not overcrowd the pot, add the legs and thighs to the hot oil and cook, turning and monitoring the oil temperature, until crisp and golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes per side.

We started looking at some differences between<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> patchwork, english paper pieced or appliqué styles for quilting.

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue light" , , "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif;"><br />English paper piecing will usually have more sharp crisper lines, where appliqué will usually have more round smoother lines.

You can choose whether you would like them assembled in patchwork style, paper pieced or appliqué style.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I found these little critters in several places and a few variations. If you want directions/tutorial on how make, I think that TheSpuce.com is a good source one to use. Both are finished 12 inch block patterns.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Patchwork is probably the most simplistic of all three of these styles, it has a more primative look, and is a good style for beginners. It just has simple sharp crisp lines and the image will pop with the color combinations.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Living in small houses, one must create storage opportunities to make things work in small spaces. Recently our grandaughter moved in with us and I had to make room in my sewing room for a five year olds abundance of stuff.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I decided to used the Ikea Expedit Bookshelf for this reason. It gave her five storage bins across the bottom of the unit.... and of course she has taken up about 7-8 bins. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Some of the boxes to the shelving unit. These boxes are so neatly packaged and the intrusions are fairly easy to understand from IKEA, anyone could put this together if they were so inclined to do so.... we did!</div>

The two of us did this all by ourselves. We did however need help putting it up against the wall.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This bookshelf unit also has a table/desk that attaches and come out into the room. I will add a finished picture later of it finished and up againist the wall with the cubbies in the unit. If I forget let me apologize now... but then again, you may see this finished unit in another post of happenings here in the craft room. </div>

<span style="font-size: large;">As you can see we have been busy at it again handcrafting these amazing scented natural soaps that we all love! So many people over the past few years have asked me,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">why I hadn't stocked my <a href="http://etsy.com/shop/purplesageoriginals">Etsy Shop</a> with my wonderful soaps...</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We'll I can say it was for many reasons, and not to bore you with these reasons. As we all know... well... let me just say that life can get complicated from time to time. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">But rest assured... we heard your plea... that you were missing our soaps and wanted them back in our <a href="http://etsy.com/shop/PurpleSageOriginals">Etsy Shop</a>... and for your convenience... they are just waiting for you... all those amazing scents. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">In the shop... We have gift bags, gift plates, gift baskets, for all those special occasions whatever they may be, just for those times when you need something unique for someone special! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We do sell soaps individually, however we are offering a 5 bar minimum purchase... mostly for your convenience, because of shipping costs... you will pay the same whether ordering one bar or six bars of soap.</span><br />

The other day some friends and I went to Crafty U Too, here in Riverside to paint teapots and then have them fired. I haven't done pottery since high school.... let me just say that was many moons ago. </div>
<div dir="ltr">
We had alot of fun and will probably do again. <span style="text-align: center;">We all painted teapots with a cup.. I decided to paint a teapot for a daughter inlaw since she couldn' t make it this time. I painted my cup a green, the teapot yellow and the lid a purple. Then I did a bubble technique in purple over the teapot and cup.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr">
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
My Teapot and Cup</div>
<div dir="ltr">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue light" , , "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif;">I used three colors to paint this cup and teapot set, a bright yellow, sage green and purple. Then I did a bubble technique over the top of the teapot and cup with the purple to blend the three colors together.</span><br />

I decided to make another. This quilt I made from a similar fabric in the same line as the first one. This fabric is called Serenity 22, it has a very similar color palette. With this quilt I also decided to put much larger hummingbirds and more magenta squares on it. This quilt is about 48 inches wide and 60 inches long. This size makes a nice lap quilt.<br />

NOTE:</div>
<div>
If you want chocolate cookies, just add cocoa powder. </div>
<div>
If you want peanut butter cookies, just add peanut butter. </div>
<div>
Or if you want both cocoa and peanut butter..... these are the best and the way</div>
<div>
I make them.... almost every time! </div>

Remembering back to when she was about 2 1/2 years old... she said, Miss Moppet had a tuffet... so I think Miss Grace should have a tuffet!<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So the adventure begins... looking for the fabric, I started looking for something that had..... <br />

YES... that's it, just a Touch of Whimsy!"</div>
<div>

We found this real cute print with kitties in a library, which we thought would be just perfect for the tuffet... It also blended with the color palette of my family room, which was very important to me! </div>

My hats off to all the ladies who made these tuffets, I'm not sure where I found them, to give them each their proper kuddos... but they were all inspiration for our project.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
This tuffet is just beautiful... It is made with some of my favorite fabrics... satin and velvet. It also looks like they might have used upholestery fabric for the larger color strips.</div>

Needed fabric for the bottom of the tuffet and fabric to cover the button. Everything laid out and ready to sew.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
After planning and cutting out my focal fabric, I was reading the directions to start sewing on my own, and I read about using the add a quarter ruler for this project, well I had never used one and didn't know quite how to move forward. I surly didn't want to mess up and ruin my fabric to a point of no return. So I decided to take the class.</div>

I had taken all the receiving blankets and cut them into 5 inch squares and added some solid colors to make it pop. This quilt you can view under the heading (A Quilt of Memories #1). I had a lot of squares left and I just couln't bring myself to the throw them away, so I tossed them in a box and put them in the craft room closet. Well it has been about 3 years now, I was going through the closet and of course Gracie was there and she says, Nana there is my squares, we should make a blanket! So we pulled them out and I decided that she could help me design a rag quilt, kids can never have to many blanket for such things as forts and castles!!! Of course there wasn't enough to make a blanket to we had to add more squares... just enough to finish this project. <br />

I do wish that I had of taken a picture of the design we had laid out on the floor before we picked it up. Because when I was sewing it together, Gracie decided to help by giving me the strips that I had all laid out in order. Well let me just say while I was busy sewing and she was rearranging the order as she handed them to me.</div>
