I got an email from Stephanie a few days ago saying she had used Chat GPT to make logos and had asked it to try making a logo for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge 2025. What a brilliant idea! I found some time this afternoon and started playing with the idea. What do you think so far? It will only do 2 images in a 24 hour period, so I copied the image and started tweaking it in google slides. I might try canva next, it makes some pretty images. Until then, pink will be the color of January this year, so please go and see if you have any of those scraps hiding in your bin. I know I do! It will feel good to work on getting them tamed and into some blocks.
We are in the mountains for a few day, but I found some time before we left to quilt up a flimsy that had spent quite a while hanging over the edge of the quilting frame. The front is leftover tiny nine patches and the back is leftover random green blocks from the orphan bin. I got about two rows into the quilting before realizing that my tension was way off and I had eyelashes on the back. So I undid all of that and started over with freehand Baptist fans. I got most of the binding hand sewn in the car before it was my turn to drive. I might finish up the last little bit sitting here by the fire this afternoon.
I also got the border finished up on Hen & Chicks and pieced a backing. So that can be the next up on the frame as soon as we are back in Florida again. I am out of batting, so I will either have to piece together leftovers or go shopping. There are worse things than shopping I suppose.
Ryan and Sydney went out with us to hunt up a Christmas tree yesterday. We scouted up the side of the mountain in the area we lovingly call, "the upper 7." Most of what was up there was way too big to sacrifice, so we went with this scraggly little portion of a tree instead that was hiding behind the shed. We don't have much for ornaments up here, but we found some baked clay that the kids turned into decorations last Christmas. Anna just got here today, so we are having festivities tomorrow so that we can celebrate together.
After that Kurt and I went down to work on clearing out a fallen tree down by the lower driveway. Now that the greenery has died down, it is much easier to see all the random stuff that is buried back there. We found a big old pile of twigs that looked like a beaver damn. Kurt did a bit of research and thinks that it is the home of wood rats which are also known as pack rats. Behind it is a big stone wall. We might clear out the pack rat house to get a better view of the rocks. There are lots of rock walls hidden around here. All part of the fun when you are in the mountains I suppose.
Here is the smaller version of the logo
