Well, I hope that everyone has had a lovely holiday and is still enjoying them. We stayed at our own home this year for Christmas to do presents with Caitlyn and be as laid back as possible (which given the personality types in this house can be difficult sometimes. LOL) We didn’t have a bunch […]
Despite a bit of a brain meltdown while trying to work on my 3 x 6 Bee Blocks (that’s what doing complicated blocks at night will do to you!), I was finally able to get some of them complete. Not all of course…that would be miraculous. But I’m halfway done. Woohoo! I need to send
Well, at least it’s complete on my end! I’ve mailed off my pillow to my partner (though it may take a bit to get there) and I received the most beautiful pillow from Tacha/Hanies from Germany! Here the two are: The pillow I sent is on the left and the pillow I received is on

Keeping up with theme of the week, the NOLA modern quilt guild sewing retreat weekend, I have some more things to show you! First off is the darling cosmetic bags that Kaelin showed us how to make. I have to admit that this was my suggestion for a group project because I wanted to make
Well today I had to bring a gift to a party and believe it or not, it was easier for me to make something than to pack up the girlie and go to a store and try to find something. I looked at a number of different projects, but we were supposed to bring something

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:
