It's time!
It's time to crank it up...
the blog...
the homeschooling...
the music...
the newsletter...
the crafting...
my life!
Remember these piles? Three layer cakes and a big chunk of Kona Snow...
I've recently started renting time on a long arm machine at a local store called Quilt Your Own (in Stafford, TX). Here is my sweet Mr Gorgeous's patchwork quilt being quilting! By me!!! yay!!!
I used a large meandering stitch and finished quilting it in an hour and a half!!!
I just have the binding to go...you'll see it finished SOON! yay!
Here's a completed project for a friend's birthday! She actually sewed the blocks on the sides and when cleaning out her craft room, she gave them to me. I loved putting them together with a little bit of inspirational embroidery! I love collaborations!
The pillow sham is from Target, but the quilt is my current bed quilt that I whipped up two years ago in a week!!
My girls joined me in making the next gift for our same friend...
She is a cat person but, alas, has no kitties right now. So I gave her four new kitties. My three girls and I each embroidered one of the kitties. I used a pattern from a shop from Etsy called Shiny Happy World. You can get the pattern HERE.
We have three kitties including our crazy baby, Eli! He just discovered Free Motion Quilting!
(he's a little blurry because he's constantly moving!!)
Stay tuned tomorrow for some WIPs!! I have my list going, and it's getting knocked out, too!!
Blessings!!
Love it, Sally. I like the phrase, "Keep Calm and Sleep". Could I have an apron with, "Keep Calm and Cook"?
