Mystery...

This was a mystery quilt done through fat quarters quilt shop in vista...
It was last year I think, I have had it done, but put in a pile to buy backing. I always wait for the fabric I want to be on sale, I just hate to pay full price on backing... It's so expensive. Especially when you need around 5 yards or so..


So now she's in a different pile... The "needs quilting" pile.

Snowmans...again...

Ok, I think I'm addicted to snowmans... I stitched up this Primitive Gatherings quilt... Super cute... And I still have 3 more snowman projects in my pile waiting for me.


Took the picture outside on the grass and it was kinda bright in top corner.


Off to the quilters.... #4...

All baskets are from a mans jacket I bought at a thrift store and cut it apart.

Busy, busy...

It has been crazy around here and work. This work thing is cutting into my sewing time. Luckily, I have like only 15 school says left & then I'm off for summer.
So here's just a smidgen of things I've been playing with.this cute little table topper...


This next one is a BOW from Pam Buda, free I might add.. Www.heartspunquilts.com. She adds a mystery block every week. In 2 sizes also. I'm making both and these are the micro miniature squares I just made. I think we're on week 4. Still time for someone to catch up.


Then there's edyta's blocks... I try to do a handful ea week. It's gonna be gorgeous. This is just some. I'm not even half way there.


- There's more, I just didn't want to bore you. I have only 1 more Monday night class, I've been going a whole project there too. Lots more to come ...

I'm here....

2nd try...Well... It didn't work..grrr
I'm here... I have been quite busy.. Home and work.. I have been avoiding blog press because it's been such a PIA.. Hoping it will work its problems out on its own. Soo....
3 weeks ago started SBAC testing at work... That is state testing and it lasted 2 weeks.. It's all me for the WHOLE school...then last week, I had hosted the scholastic book fair..
Phew... I am so glad that is over.
So then at home... I started taking the Monday night quilting class again In Fallbrook. So I am enjoying those projects. We are doing a wool project each week and in 6 weeks we will put them together and have a quilt. We also made a couple of other projects. It's a lot of fun and I just love those girls..
Also have been working on a baby quilt for work....Everlasting wreath, I try to make about 5 a week so I won't get burned out. Also, Over the river, and thru the woods hand embroidery.. I'm half way thru the 2nd row. I have also completed the first 4 months of barn BOM.. I'm also doing mystery BOW from Jan Patek, from her blog. I'll take pictures on all those later on.



Don't bother wasting your $$ on these pills. I still wake up every 2 hours on the hour. I can't tell you how much I just LOVE this part of my life. NOT! I would rather give birth 10 more times than deal with this crap!


Mothers Day weekend so far is awesome! Went to a mini quilt show at Rooster Creek in Murrieta and then to lowes and loaded up on dirt and plants.
Then ended the perfect day with dinner and spa!.. Ahhhhh..
