WOAH!

Wow, it's been awhile. I've been keeping busy applying for school and all that happy crap. Last Sunday was our BMQG meeting we exchanged zippered pouches. I was a little worried that mine wouldn't hold up to everyone else's but they loved it and I'm demoing it at our July meeting. Heck, maybe I'll even make it into a tutorial.



I also finally finished my little wristlet made from salvages. I absolutely LOVE it!

We are doing the final round on the round robin then I can FINALLY post those pics. I also have to finish my bee blocks this month. (Can we say busy girl?!?) I better get going I have to head out in search of fabric before I head to work today.

Random update

I haven't had much time to be crafty. However I did manage to get my sewing room presentable for someone to sleep in there over the weekend.

I did manage to make this card for a girl at work who lost her dog. :( She had a rough time. Some people can be so insensitive.

Scrap fun.

I've recently been picking up bag and purse patterns when I find them. These two little wristlets are my first shot at it. :-)

A day of binding...

Well I spent most the day binding my challenge quilt. It's due at the end of the week. Let's just hope it is loved and I win! (My silly cat wouldn't stay out of the picture.)

* sigh*

Well it was another BMQG meeting Sunday. Which translates into some last minute sewing. I finished my bee blocks, the round robin and I think that is it. Silly me didn't take a pic of my blocks but here are the ones I got back including the one I made myself. We also exchanged pin cushions. I ran out of time, but one of the other girls had some extra time and lizard litter. So that is also here. I'm going to attempt a cathedral window one I found. Ill post when completed.

Busy little crafter...

Well I have been all over the last few weeks as far as my projects are concerned. A couple weekends ago I made some crayon art. It was fun and easy!


Next time I will paint the canvas before gluing down the crayons.

I also got some awesome new labors on stay for my sewing projects.

I can't wait to use them. However I told myself I HAD to finish my challenge quilt and Manny's quilt before this was even an option. It is getting closer though. I have been rearranging the blocks. It looks great! Here are some pics from the process. I had issues with my makeshift design was so I cleaned off the sewing room bed (finally!) and used that.


I will post the final project after I am done quilting it.

I also made a cute little blanket for a guy at work's new baby girl.


I guess it's time to go. I have to run to the fabric store then head up for my mini vacation at Elk Forge B&B.
