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 [...]

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 [...]

Proud Daughter

T-Shirt Quilt

I’ve started on my first t-shirt quilt.  One part experimentation, two parts google, and I think it’s coming along pretty well.  I don’t know if it’s my love of quilting, or the fact that I’m a neat freak, but it really warms my heart that this…

The Idea Book

I’ve been seeing this book around many different blogs lately.  It’s supposedly all the rage, and for good reason.  Look at some of the adorable projects inside…

The problem, as you might have guessed, is that the entire book is written in Japanese.  Which I don’t read.  That’s why I’ve named it the Idea Book, because [...]

I already knew I had the sweetest Mom in the whole world, but this totally proves it.  She was sad that I didn’t ever get anything from my partner for the coaster swap, so she mailed me a coaster care package!  Yes, we live in the same town, but she still mailed it to me.  [...]

PSA

If you don’t already have one of these, RUN, don’t walk, RUN to your nearest craft store and get one.  Immediately.

I’ve been needing a new blade for my piece of crap rotary cutter for a while.  Once I got there, I decided to just get a whole new system.
If you have one of these, or [...]
