Well Fart! I'm not working right now and sometimes I forget what day of the week it is, lol. The ones with postage already on them will go to the 24-7 box in front of our post office. They pick that one up even on holidays. The few others will have to wait for Tuesday.

If you could see the list of projects I have on queue, you wouldn't worry about getting these to me for a couple months!

Seriously... take care of that shoulder et al, and get to it when you get to it.... works for me!

Somebody is missing one strip in their packs. When I was cleaning up my sewing room I found a stray strip under the ironing board.

Who ever only has 23 strips in one of their packs is the one missing the strip. Let me know who yous is and I'll send this off to you.

Oh lord....

Guess i'll make plans for more red, I was planning on doing a watermelon log cabin for my 6 yr old...

I couldn't figure out on the last piece if it was woven crooked or if I just lacked ironing skill that badly (quite possiable).

The last of the packages are out in the mail!!!

Ok got my first set of green companion blocks pieced. Since the fall my machine won't reverse or satin stitch, so till I can snag a new one to do the applique, i'm going to piece my r & w one.

Erik, my 5 yr old picked out this one for his quilt, so that comes first (helps i've done log cabin blocks before).

It was cut really crooked. Lined up the selvedge edge up and down until I got a fold that was even all the way down. I think I trimmed a good 3 1/2 wonky inches off each end. But that's good! I'm using some of it for the combs of my chickens blocks!!

Love the Watermelon!!

I have some lemon, lime and orange prints I want to make something with this summer.


I just sent a a package of christmas prints to a friend of mine up in the mountains. Going to have her girls cut them into hexagons for our annual quilting get-together. Started quilting when the girls were like 7 & 8. The oldest is now a sophmore and they still want to do it!
