Fantastic! I'm trying it right now, and I've made a mistake... ha! I was working on the lid and realized, when I was almost done with it, that it's coiled in the wrong direction. I coiled in the wrong "same" direction. LOL That was around 4 hrs of work... but it's OK! I'll just make another top and bottom and then I'll have 2 vessels in the end! (as long as I get the coiling direction right heheheh) Thank you SO much for offering this for free, it's very generous of you!!ReplyDelete
Jeanne, even though I know better, I still make that mistake sometimes;) I have a lid sitting on my desk right now, hoping I'll make a cup for it one day;)ReplyDelete

90% of my fabric stash is purchased with no plan of what I'll make. When Sweetwater released their Boat House fabric line a couple years ago I had to have it! It reminded me of my dad, who LOVED the water. So of course I bought it, but had no idea what I would make.
Inspiration finally struck me about a year ago. I started seeing a lot of decorative boat oars and thought maybe I'll make a quilt with different oar styles. Like many of us, my list of current projects was long and I didn't sit down to design it. But it stayed in the back of my mind.
When I sat down to finally design this quilt, it came together very quickly. I started sketching out designs on a Friday and by Sunday I had a finished quilt top. My favorite quilts all seem to come together that way….in a flood of ideas and a flurry of late night sewing.
I sent my quilt off to Vickey Hughes of Studio V Quilting and love how it turned out. She had the perfect nautical quilting motif for this quilt.
I'm so pleased with how this quilt turned out. It's just as I envisioned when the idea came to me.
I owe a big THANK YOU to my pattern testers for helping me fine tune my pattern.
Maggie Norman made a beautiful version with bright and happy colors. She went scrappy with some of my favorite Alison Glass prints and Art Gallery Fabrics Prisma Elements. I love the mixture of brown and gray linen oars.
Karen Burton used a mixture of Carolyn Friedlander prints from 3 different collections (Doe, Carcai and Botanics) and I just love when a fabric designer's different lines play well together.
Karen and her family spend many weekends at one of Michigan's many lakes. What beautiful memories they are making!
*****UPDATE***** My apologies, the platform I was using to publish and sell my patterns is no longer available. Because my current focus is going to school full time for nursing, I will not be pursuing a new platform to sell my patterns. Thank you for visiting my blog.

Eff what you heard, deck shoes in winter is no longer a faux pas. While other footwear brands have just started to churn out top-siders, Sperry's been killing the game since 1935. This month, look for this half top-sider/half chukka that will help make the transition from winter to spring much easier. Other companies take note; classics always last.

Professor David Sheppard and his team will investigate the effect of the F508del mutation, the most common cystic-fibrosis causing mutation, on the CFTR protein.
The CFTR protein channel forms a gated pathway that regulates the movement of sodium and chloride ions across the cell membrane. A defective protein or absence of this protein is the root cause of cystic fibrosis. The F508del defect prevents the CFTR from assembling correctly within the cell or causes it to be fragile, which means that it does not transport chloride properly and quickly falls apart. F508del is the most common of the more-than 1,400 CF mutations. Around 90% of the UK CF population carries at least one copy, and around 50% carries two.
Led by Professor David Sheppard at the University of Bristol, this Strategic Research Centre (SRC) aims to investigate when and where inside duct-lining cells the CFTR develops a structure capable of forming a gated pathway for chloride movement. The team will:
The study has the potential to lead to long-term improvements in the longevity and quality of life for people with cystic fibrosis by restoring function to the defective CFTR.

Spray Gun Tip Sizes
The following is the complete article on the subject of spray tip sizes as written by Phil Stevens, I have received their permission to reprint this article , Phil is a founding member of AWFI, American Wood Finishing institute, and has trained thousands of people on the Correct technology of finishing, including myself. I took a Finishing course put on by AWFI out here in southern california and came away from the training very skilled. If you ever have the opportunity to do their training program it is well worth the investment. This article was taken from Phil's Blog from the Finishing IQ.com site http://www.finishingiq.com
Having toiled over correct tip sizing with different manufactures I stumbled across this article while getting a Kremlin set up for a customer the article answered my questions clearly and concisely so rather than spending the time to re write Phil's article I decided to plagiarise it completely (with permission ) and give the credit where credit was due.
Choosing the correct tip and gun set-up for your spray equipment can be very confusing. The overwhelming number of tip sizes, set-up options and differing nomenclature between the equipment manufacturers often leads to finishing problems as a result of using the wrong size of tip.
U.S. manufacturers often use thousandths of an inch to designate the size of the tip. However, many U.S. manufacturers also use millimeters to classify tip size on some of their equipment. This is especially true when specifying HVLP spray gun set-ups. Other non-U.S. manufacturers use millimeters and other types of nomenclature that does not refer to either millimeters or thousandths of an inch. Here are some of the common nomenclature definitions used for some of the spray equipment manufacturers that are used in the wood finishing industry.
Graco air assisted airless tip sizes: A "512" tip is read as if the first number (5) is doubled to equal 10, which designates the spray pattern width of a minimum of 10 in. wide at a distance of 12 in. from the end of the tip. The second and third number – or in this example, the 12 – represent the tip opening size as 0.012/in. Therefore, if your tip is a "614" number, it would be a 12-in. fan pattern and a 0.014 tip opening.
Graco HVLP and conventional guns are designated as either millimeter or thousandths of an inch or both on the gun set-up size.
Kremlin air assisted airless tip sizes: A "09 -114" – the first number of "09" designates the orifice opening size of the tip, however, the "09" does not refer to either thousandths of an inch or millimeters. It is a numbering system that Kremlin uses to define the orifice size opening. A "06" number is a smaller orifice opening than as "09". A "12" tip would be larger than a "09". A "06" equals approximately 0.011/inch. A "09" equals approximately 0.013/inch. A "12" tip equals approximately 0.015/inch. The second set of numbers after the dash refers to the fan pattern width in degrees of arc. A "114" equals 114 degrees of arc in the width of the fan pattern. Therefore, a "94" will be narrower than a "114". A "134" will be significantly wider than a "114".
Kremlin HVLP spray gun nomenclature normally uses millimeters to designate tip sizes. Therefore, a 1.0mm tip will be smaller than a 1.5mm.
Binks air assisted airless tip sizes: For a "114 – 01310", the "114" designates a standard flat tip. The first three numbers after the dash ("013") equals thousandths of an inch or 0.013/in. in this example. The last two numbers, or the number "10" in this example, designates a fan pattern width of 10 in. at a distance of 12 in. from the end of the tip. If the tip starts with a "9 – 1311F", the "9" and the "F" designate that it is a fine finishing tip with a pre-orifice. The tip would have a 0.013/in. orifice opening and an 11 in. fan pattern at a distance of 10 in. from the tip.
Binks HVLP spray gun nomenclature uses gun set-up numbers that must be referenced from their literature to determine their size. Most often they will be referenced with both millimeter and thousandths of an inch.
DeVilbiss standard spray guns, HVLP guns and trans-tech guns use millimeters to define the size of the tip and gun set-up.
What size tip is right for your application process?
Tip sizes will vary greatly, depending on the types of material sprayed, the viscosity of the coating, how much material needs to be applied (flow rate), whether it is pressure-fed, siphon-fed or gravity-fed and whether the application is manual vs. automatic spray.
For very low viscosity spray-to-color stains using HVLP gravity-fed spray guns, a 1.2mm to 1.4mm tip will work well. For pressure-fed HVLP guns spraying spray-to-color stains, a 1.0mm to 1.2mm set-up will normally be the range used for tip size. If you are spraying the same material with automated spray HVLP, a 0.08mm to 1.0mm tip size is recommended.
For spraying spray-to-color materials that are slightly higher in viscosity, such as a shader, an HVLP gun normally will work well if the tip size is increased by 0.2mm to 0.4mm for all of the above technologies.
Wiping stains spray best with air assisted airless technology. We recommend using a 0.06 to0 .094 tip size for Kremlin equipment; for all other manufacturers, a 0.28mm or a 0.009 tip orifice size will be adequate. An 8-in. fan pattern width is an average size for applying wiping stains. Larger or smaller pieces require a larger or narrower fan pattern width.
For solids, sealers and clear coats, an air assisted airless gun is recommended. Tip orifice opening size should equal around 0.013/inch. For Kremlin, this would equal a "09" tip. Pattern width of the tip generally ranges from 6 to 12 in. depending on the width of the parts. A wide fan pattern will often provide a more uniform coat with less runs and sags; however, a narrow tip will ensure higher transfer efficiency on narrower parts. Therefore, an average tip size for Kremlin would be a "09 – 114"; for Graco, a "513"; for Binks, a "114 – 01310".
For heavy bodied primers and glazes, a 0.015 tip or larger on an air assisted airless gun will generally provide a flow rate necessary for these materials. For Kremlin, this would equal a "12 – 114"; for Graco, a "515"; and for Binks, a "114 – 01510".
For water-based coatings, use the tip and gun set-up recommended by the equipment manufacturer that is specifically designed for water-based materials. These guns and tips are specifically designed to spray water-based coatings without causing shear on the material. We would recommend that you start with the same tip sizes for solvent-based coating. If you are experience problems with micro-foam or bubbles in the finish, you may need to try a larger or smaller tip on a trial and error basis to insure the best result is achieved with the type of water-based coatings you are using. Not all water-based materials are created equal; therefore, an exact recommendation for these materials cannot be offered.
When choosing the correct tip sizes, always take into consideration the following:
Does the stain have a heavy load of pigment? If so, a larger tip may be required.
Is the stain made with only dye colorants? If so, a smaller tip may be best for this type of stain application.
The solvent package of the coating: what is the solvent blend composition and does the material have a fast or slow flash-off rate? This will influence the tip size and gun set-up.
Viscosity of the coating: a larger or smaller tip may be necessary to most efficiently apply the coating depending on the density of the material.
The speed of spray application: Always try to select the tip that delivers the correct amount of material for the speed of application while maintaining the desired finish quality.
If you choose the correct tip size for the job, your finish will look better, you will reduce rework, will experience of spray operator comfort, and will increase the efficiency of the coating application.

A week ago today, Tr3s -- formerly known as MTV Tr3s -- celebrated its upcoming relaunch by reviving that great MTV franchise, the Unplugged series. While its parent channel long ago gave up on such strictly, uh, music-oriented programming, its foreign spin-offs, notably MTV Latin America, have taken up Unplugged eagerly.
As Crossfade noted here last week, the Latin America series has spawned a number of successful recordings, including Shakira Unplugged, Ricky Martin Unplugged, and Julieta Venegas Unplugged.
Tr3s, MTV's bilingual channel for next-gen U.S. Latinos, hopes to replicate that same success. To kick off its own Unplugged series, the network invited Mexican rockeros Camila to record a small acoustic show here in Miami, at the Paris Theater on South Beach. It was invitation-only, and won't premier until July 12 on Tr3s.com. (It will also air on the actual TV airwaves, on both Tr3s and MTV Latin America, in August.)

Brad Livingston from Hearts of Love Ministry in Pensacola, Florida brings us this design great for low ceilings.
Knowing the challenge of designing for low ceilings, they had to be creative with fabric and a higher quantity of lower cost LED fixtures.
They used a lot of stretchy fabric, and plenty of LED's to create the effect. The primarily used inexpensive fixtures since they have low ceilings.
To create the fabric triangles they bought stretch material from a local fabric store. They sewed the edges to keep them from tearing. Then they stretched them from the floor and ceiling.
