Mary Engelbreit Quilt

Hello my friends.. I'm a very bad girl.. Yes, i know.. I was suppose to wait for my girlfriends to make this quilt together. Really, really it goes so fast. Once you start, you won't stop until you finish. I can help you i promise. Here is the finished product, complete!! It's a gift for Natalie, her 4th birthday. I won't be able to see her expression when she opens it, since I'll be at another engagement we committed to going on the same day as her birthday party! I hope you like it! Now, i'm on a roll and ready to finsih a top for Blake which i started before he was born. I guess his 1st birthday would be a good time to give it to him, once i finish it of course.

Clouds and Puppies

Here are our babies posing for me! We took a few hikes this weekend, here's a picture through my eyes.. Those clouds were white as snow, and the skies were an intense blue. And the wind was blowing ever so slightly, you could hear the leaves make a lovely sound. I want to move up there! For now, I'll take what i can get.. I steal weekends away from home!

Today's labor of love

I started working on this quilt today around 12:00, i have the end border to do. I will stipple, free motion all the way around. Looks better in person! I also worked on party invitations for Blake, he'll be #1, next month.. I can't believe it! I will post a picture of those invitations mid week, i made and mailed 20, didn't keep any. Have to make a few more.

Cookies anyone?

I had a cookie request from my son.. So i made some choc chip cookies, with pecans and some without.. They are good!!
