The Sun Is Finally Back…

…After about 3 weeks of overcasty rain.  And because it’s finally beautiful outside, I was able to finally get a picture of the Halloween quilt from Jane’s swap.  Still not sure how I’ll quilt it, but here’s how the top turned out.  I LOVE it!  Thanks to Jane for organizing the swap!

I did quite a few [...]

Drawn

I’m so sorry I can’t give something to everyone that wanted the quilt, there were some really serious requests for it.  People offering body parts and everything    But I tried to be fair, and put all the names in the bowl.

If you still want it Courtney, I’ll put it in the mail to [...]

The Verdict

Since there were several people interested in the quilt top giveaway, I’ll do a drawing for it and let ya know who gets it.
A while back, I posted about the quilt top I made about 13 years ago, affectionately called ‘the ugly quilt’.  You can catch up here.  I was thinking about cutting it up [...]

Giving Away a Give Away

I don’t have a lot of empty floor space in my apartment.  So when I got to the borders on the Halloween top yesterday, I decided I would clear off a big spot of floor in my sewing room so I could lay the whole thing out and see what I wanted to add.  But before I [...]

Yall.  I can hardly contain my excitement as I write this post.  I’ve been jumping up and down for a while now, so I’m trying hard to keep my bottom in the chair long enough to type.  Are you ready for the big news?!  Are you sure!? I just bought tickets to see Phantom of the [...]

I’ve got the red and aqua blocks done for Jane’s swap.  If you haven’t signed up yet, I think she still may be taking some people, so check it out.  It was super easy and quick, and it’ll be a really cute quilt when it’s all done.

With some leftovers, I decided to make some tiny [...]

Wordless

I know I’ve been absent lately.  I can’t tell you why, exactly, except that my heart just isn’t in it.  The words aren’t coming.  But I’m still here, alive, and chugging away on all my projects.  Thank you all for the sweet words about my last post.  I truly appreciate every single one of them.

Another Swap

Well, I caved and joined another swap today.  But who can say no to a Jane swap?  Won’t you join me?  Red and aqua…can’t get much more fun than that!  While shopping for fabric today, I found there was a fine line between aqua/blue/teal, etc.  But I think it’s just going to be gorgeous when it’s [...]

I’m Feeling Small and Furry

I’ve been feeling a bit like a hamster in a wheel lately.  Running and running, and never getting anywhere.  I’m busy all day, but when the day is over, I can’t quite figure out what I’ve accomplished.  I don’t like feeling this way, so hopefully I’ll snap out of it soon.
For the photos I entered [...]
