Valentine

Tooo cute!!! {Thanks!!}

Annie got a new blanket for Valentine's Day!

They look alike!

Snowy Saturday

We have a snowstorm going on outside, and I am inside
visiting with my Juki and working on the second
pink and white and black HOPE piece.

Changed the background fabric for this one.

Hopefully get it listed on etsy soon -

my poor neglected etsy shop...

needs some up keep and new items on it!

Have a Happy Weedend!

Happy Valentines Day!

Hope Reigns in my Heart

Pink... black and white.

I made the center block and tacked it down on top of the polka-dot block. Free hand machine stitched the bird and words, and stipple quilted the rest.

I have a second one in the making. I think I will donate one to the Relay for Life Cancer fundraiser that we have here in June, and the other I'll finish up to list on etsy. (Don't time me on this!) With the pink and the HOPE, it think it makes a perfect statement for the cancer fight.

Have a Happy Weekend!

Whimsical DOG

Just practicing....

Bloom

I found a way to combine the look of a watercolor sketch with sewing! Isn't this fun!? Oh the places to go.... With black thread I stitched the sketch, then filled in the colors with some fabric paints. The background was stippled with a light thread.

I had to get a new sewing machine to do this with. My old hand-me-down machine just wasn't cutting it anymore. I looked into the Juki that I heard about on Bumblebeans blog, and decided to go with one of them. What a dream.
