I've been busy

Well I've been so busy the last couple of weeks that I haven't had time to post.  So I guess I'll have quite a bit to post in the next couple of days.

I have an Etsy site.   Did you know that?  It's pretty small, not whole lot and mostly custom orders.  My kids keep me pretty busy with their requests, but everyone once in awhile someone will order from me and it always makes me feel so good that someone really likes my stuff well enough to pay for it!

I just sent this off about 2 weeks ago:


The customer requested some personalization and I think it turned out pretty well.

My daughter ordered this one for her good friend:

I just love making these.  I don't think I can ever get tired of making them.

I also have some other things.  I found some wonderful K-State fabric and of course had to turn them into baby burp cloths:

Now I wish I had bought the whole bolt!  I also have some with a fabulous purple chevron:

 Good K-State purple is so hard to find and when I do I usually snatch up the whole bolt!

I currently have this order in the works:
The customer wanted it a little longer so that it could be crib size.  Hopefully the extra row of blocks will work for her.  I forgot how happy the puppy quilt makes me!

Have a happy creative day!

Stash bust!

I was asked by my good friend and hair stylist if I would make a apron for a bake sale they were having for Earth Day. I had fabric in my stash that I had purchased specifically for aprons but hadn't taken the time to make them. These are my two favorite patterns! Aside from the aprons, I've been busy learning how to alter patterns to fit me better. Sarah Gunn of "Goodbye Valentino" is a blog that I recently discovered and have found her to be very inspirational. She had a great post on a Craftsy Class that she was reviewing "Sew the Perfect Fit" by Lynda Maynard. On her posts she gives a pretty good review and is offering a 40% deal. I had already joined Craftsy but hadn't really been interested in any of the classes. After reading Sarah's post, what did I find in my inbox but a coupon from Craftsy for any online class for $19! Well I took advantage of that coupon and purchased the "Sew the Perfect Fit" class!! Rather than u...

October UFO

Another month has started which means it's another UFO.  I could get depressed about what I haven't been able to finish but instead I think I will be thankful for what I have finished!  So with that, what's up for October? What does this mean for me?   Well as far as sewing is concerned that means that my October UFO is the USA Map.   I'd love to get this done and put it upstairs in my themed "vacation room". And what does it mean for knitting?  I had chemo hats down but since those are all finished I modified my list to make knitted knockers.  How appropriate for breast cancer awareness month! This challenge has been good and I have been to focus on things in my stash.   Speaking of stash, Sherri from A Quilting Life blog had a great tutorial on a patchwork bag .  I had some mini charm packs that I have been trying to figure out what to do with and this was the perfect project. Sew the squares together add...

And the UFO for May Is....

I've been a little busy so there are lots of things for me to catch up on.  First of all I did not get much done on the UFO Challenge for April.  I did get some baby booties done and delivered.  I do hope that the moms will send me pictures of their little ones with cute little feet. As far as quilting is concerned.. not much got accomplished in April, maybe May will be more productive. The UFO for May is..... And according to my lists this is what I have scheduled..... The good news is that I started my LOVE quilt in March when I was on the quilt retreat.  The LOVE blocks are all done.  I have a few more small squares to cut up but then I should be able start sewing on it again.  Knitting is always difficult.  I should of worked on the cowl while I was on a conference last week but I needed to get some booties done for some upcoming new mamas. Because of this week long conference,  I have had a chance to get lots of knittin...
