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
I’ve been working hard to get ready for my Pretty in Pink bee and the Ravishing in Red bee. August is my month for pretty in pink and September is my month for Ravishing in Red. I’m going out of town next week and I needed to get the Pretty in Pink fabric out for

Well I have my sewing room back and it’s all nice and tidy…for now! I’m making an effort to keep it that way and not get out all the projects that I have at one time. As soon as I got it back in order, I set to work on some blocks for two of
