What Would You Do?

So, I found this really cool fabric at the flea market this weekend & I really love it. My only problem is I don't know what to do with it. I think it could look good as a rag quilt, but the thought of choping it up is killing me. So, then I thought maybe I'll use it as backing, but again I think it has more potential than to just bee used as backing.

So, I ask, how would you use it?

Till next time, have fun sewing!

And the winner is.....

This year, for my childrens school fundraising auction, I made a quilt out of the schol shirts. When it came time to try and win, I put 15 tickets in the drawing basket for my chance to win. I was thrilled when I herd my name being called as the winner! How lucky am I?!

Seak Peak / Name Game Swap

This post is dedicated to Irene.

I started this year by being part of "The Name Game Swap". Irene was assigned me a her partner & worked hard to make me a mini quilt. When she was done she sent Me the quilt she made, somewhere during it's journey, from the United Kingdom, my package was lost. Irene was so upset by this and decided to make and send me another mini quilt. When she told me this I didn't think it was fair that she was making two quilts and only receiving one, so I decided I wanted to make her one too. So, the first picture is a seak peak picture of the one I am making for Irene. The second picture is if the mini quilt Irene made, who just today found its way home.

Irene, thank you so much for the beaitiful mini quilt that you made me.

Till next time, have fun sewing!

Hexi Part 2

After many months I have finally finished the second hexi tag quilt. If you remember I bought several yards of fabric on black friday and I made my daughter her quilt right away. I ment to do my son's as soon as I had finished my daughters but then I got distracted by Christmas and I never got around to it. So here we are, almost 4 months later and I just finished getting out done. Well, at least it's done... and my son loves it!

Till next time, have fun sewing!

Quilting Frame

I'm so excited and I just can't hide it! I got a quilt frame!!! I have been shopping around for one for a few months now & I found a woman who was selling hers on craigslist, so I jumped on the opportunity. I did buy it used but it is in "like new" condition. I got it put together yesterday and set it up to start quilting today. I can't wait to get started! So here I go, my first hand quilted quilt. Wish me luck!

Till next time, have fun sewing!

Sunrise

This is the mini quilt I made for my "New Beginnings" swap partner. When I started the design, I really wanted to represent what I imagined when I thought of new beginings. The first thing I thought of was sunrises. With every sunrise comes new beginnings. So I named my mini, Sunrise. I'm so excited to have been part of this swap and i can't wait to find out if my partner likes it. I hope that whenever she looks at it her day is filled with a little sunshine.
