7 of 52 weeks of BAM

I'm jumping the gun a bit with this week's shot, but I couldn't pass up this awesome backdrop (which, btw, is in my great aunt's bathroom). Move over, Hot Tub TIme Machine . . . this wall paper shot me right back to the 1970s. Throw in the great grandfather's Cadi and I was really living it up vintage style!

It was nice to spend the day with the paternal relatives - I don't do it often, though I feel I should because they are part of who I am. I need to let go of the bad blood that was and embrace the good blood that IS.

Japanese pattern books...lots earmarked already...

A pattern that caught my eye!

Great vintage pattern from the 1970's -- includes patterns for a simple dress (with or without sleeves), wide leg pants and tunic.

Pattern from Butterick company, there's no date, but the styles look like the '70's. Pattern is labeled for size 14, a 36 inch bust. UNCUT.

I've been inspired by the members of the Cocorico Bee and my fabulous Beehivers to start drafting my own paper-pieced designs!

At this stage I'm just dipping my toe in the water. So far I've modified a couple of patterns, and with this one I've tried drafting a block based on a picture I saw of a completed quilt. It's very angular, which hopefully will be comparitively easy to achieve.

It's for my Bug's Beehive quilt, "The Busy Sea at Night". Can you guess what it is?

Every morning there are different patterns in the ice on my windshield.

Love this pattern! Thank you Jenny! Made this in a size small but I think I'll go up a size for next time as it's a little tight in the bust and underarms. I was right on the edge of the measurements for the small so should have known. Inspired by the other red plaid Tova shirts I've been seeing :)

The blue fabric was from an old skirt of mine and the brown and yellow was a piece of Robert Kaufman that I picked up...The button was off of an old jacket. I used Amy Butler's Hourglass pillow pattern.
