All Summer Long is the sixth album by the American rock band the Beach Boys, released July 13, 1964 on Capitol Records. Regarded as their first artistically unified collection of songs, as well as one of the first true concept albums, it marked the Beach Boys' first LP that was not focused on themes of cars or surfing. Instead, the songs are semi-autobiographical and relate to the experiences of a typical Southern Californian teenager, a theme encapsulated by the title track, "All Summer Long", and the often-imitated front cover, a modernist style photo collage depicting the band members fraternizing with young women on a beach.

Actress Peggy Lipton told Teen Set that John Lennon and Paul McCartney had been "infatuated with the Beach Boy sound. [...] They played All Summer Long all night long and asked me many questions about them. Paul and John were fascinated by Brian’s style of composing and arranging." - Wikipedia

Door to the garden

Door to the garden. It is its own green world there. It is huge. And endless. And world of endless summer. And such old door. Magical wooden door. Little door is little broken. It is such and old door. And magical world of summer.

It was the first LP the group recorded post British Invasion, and the last where their music reveled in California beach culture until the 1968 single "Do It Again". Only one song explicitly references surfing: "Don't Back Down"; there are no hot rod songs at all for the first time, "Little Honda" is about a motorcycle.

Released this day in 1964.

Quilt #2 for #AllSummerLong(Arm) on the contraption. I’m trying things slightly differently this year - going to quilt a bunch before breaking for binding. I keep trying, but I really haven’t found a method I’m comfortable with to whittle down the pile of finished tops without wishing I was piecing new ones instead

I don’t know, that may not make sense. I’m extra tired today

I love these summer recipes with minimal effort! #summertime #summerrecipes #summercreations #allsummerlong

Two-fer for #MyCreativeYear since yesterday was a holiday

Starting this month and continuing #AllSummerLong(Arm) I was focused on longarm quilting a bunch of quilts in one fell swoop…

With this quilt I've reached my #AllSummerLong(Arm) goal - 9 UFOs quilted and bound before Labor Day

HEXIE CHROMATIC
Completed: August 2023
Design: Large Hexies
Quilting: Custom E2E
Size: 72" x 73"

Thought about attempting a bonus quilt finish before August ends, but I'm going to be happy with what I've accomplished and give myself a few days of rest before I start piecing new tops again

HOARDING FOR THE HOLIDAYS
Completed: August 2023
Design: Apples & Beavers Dragon Dreams
Quilting: Chevron
Size: 82.5" x 82.5"

Now that I'm no longer a custom quilting business I can make all the adorable patterns from other quilters I want (tho I still can't help putting my own stamp on any design 😉)

This is quilt #8 towards my #AllSummerLong(Arm) goal

Chevron quilting was a very good choice

#Quilting #AllSummerLong(Arm)

Been fiddling around with ideas for how to quilt my latest #AllSummerLong(Arm) project

I considered a spool-themed panto and dragon scales done with rulers, but the number of problems with my last quilt has me spooked, so it looks like this one is going to be an easy edge-to-edge chevron

Wish I was a bit more adventurous with my #Quilting, but done is better than fancy I guess

I thought quilt #7 would finish quick because it is on the smaller side, but a LOT of longarm issues (and some ennui) pushed this one to 10 days. Still, it's Aug 1 and I've got a whole month more of #AllSummerLong(Arm) to go to meet my goal

SCRAPPY NAP
Completed: July 2023
Design: Improv Letters
Quilting: Triangle Tangle pantograph
Size: 56" x 67"

This quilt was inspired by a free printable I saw on Pinterest, but why print when you can sew?

Wavy border quilt update — I was able to save it! Essentially, I removed the wavy borders and used QAYG to sew them back in place. They ended up much flatter and I was then able to finish the border quilting on my regular sewing machine

WHEW!

Still have I idea what caused it. Probably won’t be donate-able but it is useable at least

#Quilt #Quilting #AllSummerLong(Arm)

I do not know what went so horribly wrong with the quilting on this quilt, but the wavy borders are so bad I’m going to have to take it off the long arm and try to fix them by hand

Look at that gap! It’s on both sides and I’ve never had anything like this happen before 🤷‍♀️

I’m really bummed because this is a design I liked a lot and hoped to donate the finished quilt
