Hi there! I just wanted to do a little post on this cute pinwheel quilt I just finished.

Isn’t this fabric the cutest?! It’s the Happy-Go-Lucky line from Moda.

It’s soo fun and summery! Anyways, that’s all for now.  Now I’m trying to decide what to do next.  Herringbone, houndstooth or more chevron. . . .  So many patterns so little time!

Happy Spring everyone!  I know it’s been forever since I posted on this little blog of mine.  I’m sure you don’t want to hear all about the crazy virus that wiped me out for the last three months so I’ll just move along to more up lifting things.  It’s finally warm enough to wear shorts and sandals! Spring really is my favorite time of the year.  I love Easter, sun burns that hopefully turn into tans, and the smell of the springtime air.  A friend brought me by this really pretty Easter Lilly plant last night and I just love it.

It hasn’t even bloomed yet and I love it. 🙂  So I’ve been working on a few different quilt designs.  I like the chevron and all but it’s time to try a different style of quilt for my etsy shop.  Since I really like the color combo of grey, pink and teal I came up with this design.

I just finished the quilt top today.  I will probably get it pinned and quilted tommorow and then in my etsy shop next week.  I can’t decide how I want to quilt it though –  in the ditch, a bunch of tiny triangles, or something more creative – I dunno.

My little Maddy Paddy turned three last week! We just did the usual family birthday party on a Sunday evening.  I made the ever popular on pinterest rainbow cake.

It isn’t pinterest worthy pretty but it sure tasted good.  I did cream cheese frosting and an old fashioned yellow cake recipe.

I’m soo glad it’s spring! I’m glad I’m feeling better and I’m happy to be working on new quilt patterns! Thanks for stopping by!

I just barely finished an order of four sets of alphabet bean bags and four sets of number bean bags.  There are some kids somewhere that are going to get 144 bean bags under their Christmas tree!

They barely fit in two large priority postal boxes. I was really getting worried they wouldn’t all fit.

I made a Christmas chevron quilt!  I’ve been wanting to make one for awhile and finally was able to get it done.  The fabric is all Kona cotton.  I want it to sell, but at the same time I don’t because it would look cute on my couch next to the Christmas tree.

I also finished my santa clause pillow cases for the girls!  These will be fun to use every Christmas time!

Just had to post a picture of my cuties in their new Christmas dresses.

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Friday everyone!  What a crazy week it’s been and this weekend is going to be even crazier!  I haven’t posted in forever because the spamers have been hitting the blog hard I have been avoiding it.  But, I really should post something, I just don’t have anything to say right now, other than I’m up to my armpits in chevron quilts. 🙂  I just sold a throw size yesterday and have already gotten requests for more of that size in gray.  I found the perfect fabric for this quilt and I love how soft it feels.

The gray is a pretty deep color.  Sure I could make more profit if I used broadcloth, but I don’t like how that holds up in washings and how it feels.  Hopefully the people that buy my quilts can feel the quality of the fabric.

I bought the girls Halloween costumes this year.  I have always done homemade costumes but this year Macey wanted to be a horse.  I had no clue how to make a horse so we bought one.  And then Maddy wanted the cow costume that was next to it.  So, no homemade cool costumes this year, just unoriginal store bought ones.  Boring.

We are going to be out and about car shopping this weekend.  I hate car shopping!  To many numbers, to many things to think about.  I wish the Civic would have just lived forever but the frame is bent (that’s a whole other story), so we’ve got to find a replacement for it.  Dangitall!

Also, we have a townhouse that we rent out and our renters are moving out this weekend.  I put an ad on craigslist and my phone has been ringing like crazy!  We’re meeting people and handing out applications this Saturday. I’m optimistic that we will be able to find good renters for our nice little house.  I guess that about sums it up for me.

Happy weekend everyone!
