Kick in the Tush

If you’ve followed my blog, you probably have heard me talk about my big plans for making a grandmother’s flower garden quilt.  It was actually one of my new years list of things to do.  And not just any gfg, but an authentic, totally hand pieced, gfg. 
Anyway, I have all the fabric, but I’ve had [...]

So continuing on…

None of these fabrics have a particular use in mind, I just loved them.  The 2 rolled fat quarters on the top were on sale half-off. 

The top one goes with the bluebonnet fabrics that my hubby brought back in January.  I’m hoping to incorporate them into a true LoneStar quilt.  The middle one [...]

Do you remember back in January when my husband went to visit his Mom in Texas, and went to that quilt store and picked out some fabric for me?  Well, since we also stayed with my MIL this past weekend, she so sweetly took me back to the same quilt shop.  I knew I was [...]

Well, we’re back from Texas.  We went to a wedding in Dallas over the weekend, and it was beautiful.  We were in the car for 22 hours over 3 days, and my wonderful husband drove the whole way.

In-between

Posted in Everything Else, tagged , , on March 18, 2009 | 3 Comments »

I’m taking this weekend off to go to the wedding of one of my husband’s relatives, so I’ve picked up [...]

Old Treasures

This past weekend I picked up a few things at an estate sale.  I just love estate sales.  They’re so fascinating to me.  It’s fun to try to figure out something about the people that lived there, by the things they left behind.  I should start taking a camera with me.  I’ve seen some really [...]

A Heart for You

We bought the most absolutely delicious strawberries at the grocery the other day.  And this one we thought looked like a heart!  A little bit of a stretch, maybe, but I thought I’d share it with you.
