Hello! I just got to sit down with my hand quilting and to watch your video. I hope you have a glorious and creative week ahead! Thank you for sharing your video and your talent.
Oh sure, go through my notions which are EVERYWHERE! It’s a good thing. I found things that I had duplicates of. Imagine that. I am gathering them up and taking them to a thrift store called Savers. Savers donates 100% of their money to veterans. We love our veterans for keeping us a free nation and those who have given their lives for us.
My word this year is “finish “. So far, I have 13 done, 7 to go…at least what is on my list. I think that’s pretty good for the year! Of course, I will be doing some sew alongs that will add to my list. 😀
Since I always forget my work after a few months, I did not pick one this year. I am trying to finish quilt tops. I have also been working on some memory projects. I made some shadow boxes with things from my Mom and Grandma. i had 5 of Dad's shirts left so I made 5 more memory pillows. I do have all the teach me to books.
My word of the year is "gifts". I'm trying to make as many Christmas gifts this year for loved ones. Homemade is best! Last year I had hardly any, and I think I had some disappointed folks.
Love, love, love. All you need is love, love. Your videos are fun and inspiring! I cannot remember my word of the year. So I'm going with love! Loving all the sew alongs!!
Baskin Robin’s gold medal ribbon ice cream is one of my all time favorites and I haven’t had it in ages. It’s vanilla and chocolate ice creams with a swirl of caramel in it. I’m also lactose intolerant so I need to remember to bring my lactaid with me whenever ice cream is on the agenda
I am SO excited to win your table topper book Pat! 🥰 It was fun to see your other publications with Martingale today. My friend Laurie worked for that publishing company and enjoyed everyone she worked with. I was able to visit and take a tour with her and it was an amazing place. I love chocolate so thank you for enabling me with the chocolate ice cream idea! LOL 😍 Hugs
My word for this year is *de-clutter* and that's what I've been doing with my old stash the past 2 weeks and donating to local charity shops. Last year I helped 3 friends with their de-cluttering so I wanted it for myself this year. Whilst sorting my fabrics I collected some yellows & blues for my Ukraine hanging. It feels so good and I'm almost finished! Loved your shared stories today :)
Lovely fabric...Bird Song! The strawberry pattern is scrumptious looking! The blue bird...can I make them different colors? I will look for the Bird Song panel next trip to my local quilt shop. Enjoyed visiting with you today...see you tomorrow!
Didn’t have a word this year as I didn’t do it last year😭. Ironed my fabrics for the Summer Quilt along. Sure would love to finish one. I have 7 bins of quilt alongs of yours to do!! I love making the blocks best. Will try to do the Strawberryone too!!
Enjoyed today's post, as expected. You are such a bright spot in my day. I listen while at work and am always tickled to hear the joy in your voice, when sharing pictures, cards and projects. Thank you!!!!
The yard and gardens are yelling for my attention louder than my sewing machine. Thank you for reminding me that it will indeed get steamy and hot soon. Love Birdsong fabric line and Hello Birdie table topper. I think mine would have to be a wallhanging otherwise the birdie will be constantly squashed by fat cats.
My word is wrap-it-up. I finished my great granddaughter Mae's quilt, due in July. I finished the repair quilt for my niece and two quilts and a wall hanging for the shows. Still have more to finish up though. Working on a puff quilt and a t-shirt quilt.
I live way out in the sticks, so I buy in bulk for everything. I have to drive 30 miles to get a spool of thread and that shop is only open 3 days a week! Otherwise a quilt shop is 1.5 hrs away. I do have extra space but I did clear out about a third of my supplies that were just plain outdated. Fair warning, with inflation right now, better hang on to things you may eventually need. Thank you for your videos. You inspire me every morning!
HEY Pat, talk about space! Help! We are camped out in our dining room awaiting new carpet. Sewing and Ham radio equipment. But still sewing and making contacts. We had to move everything out of three rooms for painting and carpets til June's end. Have made the space. My word for the year is explore
Space....I completely tore my whole sewing room apart earlier this year. Everything was cluttered and it just wasn't working and it had gotten to the point I looked at it as a chore to go in there...the fun had disappeared. I recently finished (still have a few things to sort through before it goes back in). I feel so good how the redo turned out...so open and inviting, much more organized. Most important there is now plenty of room for my dog, Maisey, to stretch out and keep me company as I sew.
Both of those are beautiful. Thanks for sharing and keeping us "motivated." Hahaha snuck in my word. Trying hard to stay motivated with so many things that pull me in different directions. I love when you say it'll get done at some point. Makes me smile.
Thank you for your video. I just got my bundle of Bird Song fabric to day! It is wrapped so nicely I am not going to open it til Wednesday! Weird , right? Have a great day!
Congrats on your 40th book!!! That's a whole library! I have your 2nd splendid sampler book! I want to get the one with the tulip quilt as well. Hugs from Virginia!
Utilize….I have been utilizing my fabric, BUT I have also been utilizing my $$ to buy MORE fabric! 🙄 Latest purchase was birdsong fat quarters and the back ground fabric for “Camp Sloanie”… BUT it hasn’t come yet 😱 could be that the background fabric is on back order, which I did not know 😕. Crossing my fingers!
Thanks Pat for all your videos. Space - that's what I plan to do when I retire - we will be cleaning/organizing all rooms in our house. One room at a time is the plan!! Have a great day!!!!
Love those quilts and fabric. I have the panel in blue, birdsong fat quarters & Summer Camp fabric ready to go. And now I want to make that Strawberry Quilt
Hi, I am getting ready for one of the Bird Song quilt along 😊 I just downloaded the free pattern and I ordered all the fabrics for the blue version from the Fat Quarter Shop, hopefully it will get to Canada before the quilt along starts.
Hello this year i am cleaning my sewing room, so my word is Comfortable . I have military family , my husband was in AF for 24 years now 7 years ago my son join the Navy .My little girl finished school and decide go to Navy also , so pass this 6 month stuff around house get moved a lot and if someone don't need something anymore they putting in my sewing room . My room start look like flea market .I got overwhelm and start cleaning my sewing please so i can breathe again . I am from Russia and in my language Sloan ( Slon) means Elephant :))) Maybe for your camp you can make little bags or T- shirts with baby elephants .
When I was sorting my notions (I also don’t count rulers) I used sticky notes to label the drawers I wanted things to go into so that I could try to decide how much space I was willing to allot to each type. I have a little 10 drawer unit from Michael’s with 6 skinny drawers and 4 larger drawers. Some things had to move around because I have more or less than I though, but that was how I figured out what needed to live somewhere else
Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of Quilters everywhere. HaHa! Thanks for your videos Pat. The Slone Zone and a cup of coffee. I love your Pat!!
Your quilts are beautiful. I'd like to have the strawberry pattern, but have my own fabrics. I think the Table Toppers book would be great to have, and make the sampler quilt. Thank you for sharing this

40 books!! You should have a BOOK BASH! Such an accomplishment ❣️
I love that Strawberry quilt!

Good morning from Minnesota. Two orioles joined me for my morning coffee with Pat. Maybe they wanted to see Pat’s birdsong material and quilts! 😂
Baskin Robin’s gold medal ribbon ice cream is one of my all time favorites and I haven’t had it in ages. It’s vanilla and chocolate ice creams with a swirl of caramel in it. I’m also lactose intolerant so I need to remember to bring my lactaid with me whenever ice cream is on the agenda
That’s my fave too 😋

Space, I’m slowly working on more space by cleaning out closets and drawers. Amazing what purging and consolidating can do to make space
My goal is to make it through the whole house this year...steadily making progress.
The yard and gardens are yelling for my attention louder than my sewing machine. Thank you for reminding me that it will indeed get steamy and hot soon. Love Birdsong fabric line and Hello Birdie table topper. I think mine would have to be a wallhanging otherwise the birdie will be constantly squashed by fat cats.
A great word to describe you Pat, is, prolific!
My word is wrap-it-up. I finished my great granddaughter Mae's quilt, due in July. I finished the repair quilt for my niece and two quilts and a wall hanging for the shows. Still have more to finish up though. Working on a puff quilt and a t-shirt quilt.

Thanks for sharing I enjoy watch you your quilts will be awesome
Space-what a great word but most important word in the quilting world. I love the things you share such as the word here and The life of color.
Hi Pat! My goodness, the gorgeous quilting on the Strawberries quilt 💗 Can't wait to see Camp Sloanie start!!
HEY Pat, talk about space! Help! We are camped out in our dining room awaiting new carpet. Sewing and Ham radio equipment. But still sewing and making contacts. We had to move everything out of three rooms for painting and carpets til June's end. Have made the space. My word for the year is explore
Cannot wait !
My word is Organizing….. newly retired. It might take more than a year. 😜

Exactly!
Your comment is great! I’m such a Trekkie. Also in the middle of organizing/making space. Live long and prosper!
I have two drawers labeled “notions I use” and “ notions I rarely use”. If they didn’t make the cut for rare I got rid of them 😁
Good idea, thanks!!
Just bought the birdsong panel and fat quarter bundle from FQS. Excited about the possibilities.
You are amazing
Your quilts are beautiful. I'd like to have the strawberry pattern, but have my own fabrics. I think the Table Toppers book would be great to have, and make the sampler quilt. Thank you for sharing this

@@PatSloan Thanks Pat, I hope to do the 2 colour ways and end with a double-sided quilt.
❤️❤️❤️
Can you tell me approximately how big the center star section of the bird song quilt is? That would make a great wall hanging.
it is in the pattern
Your quilts and fabrics are so beautiful and inspiring! I love love love the birdsong panel. Is the supply list for the quilt available yet? Many thanks!
It is and the pattern is free, link is in the description box under the video
@@PatSloan Thank you so very much for all you do for us!
Would you happen to remember the name of your red notions cabinet? It looks about the right size I’m looking for but have to check dimensions.
sorry I don't know the name of the cabinet. The container store had them years ago
Pat check out the Clutter Bug on utube! She is awesome at helping you find your way of cleaning up and out. 😉🇨🇦
