I went back to work and my daughter started school. Exciting, but all new to me. Change can be fun and scary too. I am doing private duty home care for an elderly lady.
But on the crafty side....!!!! I am quilting for Christmas!
I have finished 8 and didn't get a picture of a yellow and green one. I gave it away before getting a picture. I have two quilts waiting too put together and one ready to pin. Crazy but fun!!

My custom giveaway dress

Here is the dress I custom made for the giveaway I had recently! I hope she likes it!

I just love this owly corduroy!


You know me, it MUST have a ruffle!!




Love that remains


This is the "Love that Remains" quilt I just finished for my brother and his wife.
These are mostly vintage fabrics from my Father in Law!
9 patch with a grid quilting pattern. I used my walking foot for the first time!


The pieced back with a single heart in the middle.


I am hooked on this binding tutorial and have tried and loved it twice here at The Somtimes Crafter.

I appliqued lace hearts and left the edges to fray. Reminds me of hearts that have been through stuff yet remain.

This is a generous Lap sized quilt, it just needs a label!

I won two giveaways and combined them!

A few months ago I won this apron from Daughters of Eve. I liked it but...
Now I LOVE it.
I added these cherries from the Sublime Stitch book that I won a few months back from Wren and Stitchy .
