On Saturday we had another sew day for the New Orleans Modern Quilt Guild. Although just a few of us were able to show up, we had a blast. We met at the newest quilt store in town, the Quilted Owl. They’re technically still not open but you wouldn’t know it! LOL. They are such

Well after I did my big push to finish my 3 x 6 bee blocks and then finish my projects for Modern Swappers, and did the paper pieced blocks for RIR bee and the Japanese Bee blocks, I needed a little break from sewing. I still have SOOO much left to do for this month:

Well I just read my mailing deadline on this swap and I can’t mail my package until August 25th…but I am soooo happy to have this swap complete. For some reason this was a really long one. Which is a great idea in theory because of all the extra time you get to work on

Well it’s a thankfully slightly lazy Saturday morning and I’m sitting here watching my incredibly adorable daughter try to get to her laundry that needs to be folded. It’s taunting me over there with my laundry. Oh and wouldn’t you know it…just as I write this, my darling husband picked up my basket to fold
I finally got to a little sewing. I’ve been so busy with life…agh…that I haven’t been able to sew much yet. But I was able to make one block today. It doesn’t look like too much but it’s always surprising how much time even a simple block like this takes. This block is another house
Well life has been crazy lately and we’re finally back home…to more crazy life. Today is my husband and mine’s 8th wedding anniversary. Someone told me that 8 years is a new beginning and I love that. We’ve had some crazy life the last few years and a new beginning is an interesting idea. But
