I am thankful for so much


I am so lucky to be so blessed. I baked a pie tonight for my family with the help of my sweet little ones, safe in our own little kitchen with beautiful autumn leaves swirling outside our windows. Blueberry, yum!

Here are two blocks from my next sewing project from the Quilters Academy book, Town Square. Have a happy day tomorrow, everyone.

Friday night sew in results




I didn't get much sewing done--we had our annual missions banquet at church. The sewing had to wait until after that. I completed a block from Sylvia's Bridal Sampler (check out the website http://www.elmcreek.net/ if you haven't already). This one is called contrary wife, and the pattern can be found in Jennifer Chiaverini's book Sylvia's Bridal Sampler from Elm Creek Quilts.

I can't believe I finished both of them


Can you believe it? It's only been like 1-2 years, something like that. Who's counting. The picture is blurry, my son was taking the pic and he was wearing his roller skates, he usually takes really good pictures, but this one turned out blurry. I have to wait for another sunny day and my sis to come back with her quilt to get a better one. I love quilting!!!!!

these blocks are fun

more tiny four patches


These ones are green and will be going into the Town Square. I love the way these look on the back, I may be getting a little obsessive about them, can you tell? I want to do some more!

back to homework




I am back at my lessons in the Qulters Academy series. Here are some fourpatches I'm working on, the back looks pretty good too, I love the way the little tiny four patches look on the back when the "fanning" works like it is supposed to!
