Yoga Pants Perils and Other Goodies

Did a little shopping today.  I’m not much of a shopper unless its at a fabric store.  However, I needed some socks and another pair of yoga pants.  Mind you, I hardly ever do any yoga  but I love yoga pants.  Long yoga pants, not those cropped things.

Do you know how hard it is to find “long” yoga pants in any size but small?   Finally I found something I could wear so I’m happy.  Just wish I could stand in my yoga pants like the lady above without falling over.

Also hit the Half Price Books store and bought several books about Amish quilts and also this one:

Welsh Qs

I’m loving this book!  The medallion style interests me and the hand quilting is truly intricate and extraordinary.  I can do the piecing but not the exquisite hand quilting. 

Still hand piecing my 6 point stars – here are some of the newest ones.  I need 25 more then I can start assembling the top.

It’s so relaxing to  hand sew in the den while watching the Texas Rangers baseball games on television.  Unfortunately, the way the Rangers are playing the last couple of weeks, I definitely need something to bring down my blood pressure.  These little stars help.

  1. Just found your blog through the TVQG site. Loved the pics of the Ruby McKim exhibit. I'm in BCQG but failed to get any photos of that exhibit so I was happy to see yours.
