Buttons

Barb was contacted by Button Mad to give away 10 cards of buttons. You guessed it, I won a card of buttons. They are so cute. I don't know what I'm going to do with them YET.

Barb wrapped the little birds in this beautiful fabric and I know what I am making with it.

Thanks, Barb and ButtonMad.

Happy quilting!

Birthday squishy

Last week was my birthday and I had a great birthday. Toni sent me a birthday squishy of fat quarters and they are so pretty. I left them laying on the sofa all week admiring them. HEY! It was my birthday so I could. lol

I told you they were pretty. I just had to open this fat quarter up so you could see how cute it is. Toni said it made her think of the boys so I'm sure I will cut some I Spy hexes from it.

Happy stitching!

Lovlies

I picked up some fabric to make some more lovelies. Lacy tagged along so she could help with the fabric choices that new mommies like. lol I would have never picked these fabrics for a baby. I guess I'm showing my age. I'm backing the lovlies with Northern Lights fleece. I hope to get some of these made today.

flowers

These will become flowers for my quilt that does not have a name. There are 60 triangles in the box and I will have 12 flowers when I'm done. Betsy showed the flowers on the black/white red quilt she made for her daughter. The instructions for the flowers can be found at Natalie Ross's blog.

New project

Remember me telling you Betsy sent me this package of 12 fat qtrs and asked me to make something for myself. As I was looking through the magazines, I held the pkg of fat qtrs in my lap. I was searching for a pattern that I could use the fat qtrs. Finally, I saw this. And I remembered that I had this.

Well my panel wasn't big enough sew I changed mine up just a bit. I cut the fat qtrs into 3 1/2" strips which eventually turned into 3 " squares.

After adding some of the squares, this is what it looked like and I was not happy. So I spent the morning doing the reverse stitch. On to plan B

Happy quilting!
