Start your day with some chocolate… In my recent series of tierneycreates blog posts I share my adventures from visiting CA quilting friends in April 2019. This is when I met my beloved “dog granddaughter” pup Riley who is now a full grown chocolate lab!

Bought some Perle cotton in gray - Going to experiment with handstitching my quilt “Seattle Scrappy”...

“Seattle Scrappy” quilt top is done (it got too big for the design wall so resorted to the design carpet 😀) #improvquilt #improvquilting #scrapquilt #quilting

At the Colorado Home Show looking at “lottery winner” landscape options lol

Another knitted hat finished this time for my sister and it also has a special story behind it which I’ll share in a future blog post on tierneycreates.com

Mike the Mini Schnauzer visits his new house in progress for the first time yesterday . He’s hoping to move in late April…(his humans are back from the warmth of Cabo and into the cold and snow of Denver!)

“Farm to table” hopping!

An amazing “farm to table” restaurant in the middle of a big farm 😀

Catch of the day fish tacos on the water - I think I can get used to this vacation thing

Yes, for those who follow my tierneycreates.com/blog, you will be subjected to another post in my series “Life in B&W” in the near future as I am snapping up a storm in Cabo 😉

Shoe Coaster....patent pending😉 @john_amadeus_green

I forgot what time it is and then I realized it’s “chill o’clock”...

This is a nice alternative to the snow in Denver…

Mike is only on his first full day at the dog watchers’ house and already he is in a relationship 😉(this one’s name is Georgia)

Hello Pacific Ocean, my toes missed you!

Making progress on my piece “Seattle Scrappy”. @chambersdalix #quilting #modernquilts #improvquilting #scrapquilts #quiltsofinstagram

Put the free table I got from our community for sale website (NextDoor) on risers and now I have a nice big cutting and project surface in my temporary studio until we move!

Everything looks better in black-and-white. I think I’ll call this one “Winter Window”. I think it be a great inspiration for a future art quilt.

OK I moved away from the “design carpet” onto a temporary design wall! Piece in progress and more in my next tierneycreates.com/blog post on this improv piece made from my friend Dana’s scraps. Oh and I’m thinking of calling this piece “Seattle Scrappy” @chambersdalix #quilting #quiltsofinstagram #improvquilting

Stitching Bowl: I am rooting for how much of this quilt can I get sewn together during the Super Bowl!
