Help...

I couldn't resist sewing yesterday.  So I dug in my stash of AAQI tops I made last year and found one I could quilt by hand while I sat with my sick wee one.



It turned out pretty cool.


I think I need to add something in the lower left hand corner.  Sweetie Pie disagrees.  I like the letter  beads spelling out:
"I'm Late  I'm Late".  It doesn't show up much....

What do you think?

A New Year...

It's a new year.....2012.

I'm still here I promise.  I have not had time to sew.  I have a non sewing project that has kept me very busy and will until Spring.  But it's a good thing.

I will still be making small quilts for AAQI.  I'm not giving that up.  I took the $1000 pledge last year, and I'm about half way there.

Today would be a great day to sew, it's freezing outside.  Unfortunately, I'm home with a sick wee one  ;(  we've had a stomach bug visit us for New Years.  I can't even blame school for this one!

Happy New Year all and Happy Quilting!

Look what I made...

I just made the cutest wallhanging!

It's from the Fall 2011 issue of Quiltmaker's Small Quilts & Gifts.  I'm a sucker for magazine's this time of year!

Anyway, I saw this cute little guy and decided it would make a great gift.  (Next time....read the measurements!)  It came out really cute.

Daughter#2 told me I should give it to Santa for Christmas.

How sweet is that!

Happy Quilting
