TEASE!!


Look at this fun group of fabrics!! What to create? what to create??

I know!

How about a new pattern/quilt for Konda from Moose on the Porch!

Yeah! Now thats the ticket!













All cut up and ready to sew, sew, sew!


In a variety of steps!





Thats all folks! or atleast until it gets published! waaahhhaaaaa......
Care to make any guesses on how you think it might turn out???
hmmmmm..

been up to????

When I finally got back in the mood to sew, if I don't have a migraine -- I have had this waiting for me, (along with a ton of old projects for the store that is now closed, opps!) .

I set these embroidered blocks together. This gal is a hoot. She has said that she only has time left in her life to do 3 of these. She hand quilts them!! This is the second one that I have put together for her -- one more to go. You should have seen the first one! The border, sashing material was SATIN!! It was a nightmare -- for me!! She called up her neice (a neighorbor where I grew up) and told her how much she LOVED my workmanship and how beautiful it is -- again! It was all funny.

the finished room




This is how the "large" dining room now looks with the new to me furniture in it. Its a wee bit crowded, but I LOVE IT!
It's wonderful to have a place for table cloths, placemats and all sorts of other hidden away hardly ever used items. AND it is nice to be able to sit on a chair and not having to worry if it will fall on you as soon as the butt cheeks touch. Thats a bonus just right there!
It was like Christmas all over again. What fun!
