Square One Stitch-A-Long

L is for Lisa

Finally my first square!  My 10 year old daughter has decided to do this with me.  I will take a picture of her progress to show you too.

Trims & Embellishments!

My fabric still has not arrived so I can start my squares for I'm Stitching-a-long. :0( I am loosing patients! :0) While I am waiting I have decided to gather some possible embellishments and trims that include vintage lace and ribbon, beads, vintage rhinestone buttons and silk ribbon. I will be using DMC and Anchor pearl cotton in size 5 and a red in size 3. I hope to have a square done for you to see early next week. Keeping my fingers crossed! Just maybe it will come on Monday!!!

Happy Mail!

Look what I got in the mail today! :0) I am so, so, so, thrilled with the quilt I got from Beth for DQS8. The fabric, the colors, little birds in the tree, everything is perfect! Not only did I get the best little quilt but she sent me a little bag and the fabrics she used in the quilt. I am sooooooooooo lucky. Thank you so much Beth, I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful package. You are awesome!

I'm Stitching Along

I just found out about this wonderful little stitch along at 39 Squares a couple of days ago. I quickly ordered some osnaburg fabric and am patiently waiting for it to arrive so I can start.  By the time it gets here I will be 14 days behind I am sure. Will have a lot of catching up to do. Can't wait! As if I don't have enough on my plate with 2 jobs, a family a big house to clean and other sewing projects to finish. LOL!  I can't help myself. LOL!

"Celebration Quilt" For DQS8 Finished

Thought I would show you the doll quilt I sent out to.....? Can't tell you yet because my secret partner has not received it yet. I call this quilt the "Celebration Quilt" because it can be used for birthdays, anniversaries etc... I am half way done with the second one for my girls and am thinking of making more to put in my Etsy store. What do you think?

UPDATE!
She go it and she loves it!  Sheeeew  I feel better. :0)  This little quilt went to Trisha at TLC Stitches.

OWOH Giveaway!

This Contest is now CLOSED

Welcome to the ONE World-ONE Heart 2010 annual give away event hosted by Lisa "Oceandreamer" Swifka from A Whimsical Bohemian . This is my 3rd year to participate and I am so excited to be apart of this again.  I have met so many wonderful people.  The idea behind this is to bring bloggers together from around the world who may never ordinarily meet. It closes the gap of the blog community and enables us to interact, discover new and wonderful people, and in the process possibly win a prize or many prizes along the way.

What I am giving away!

One beautiful tooth fairy pillow. Keep your child's tooth safe while it awaits the tooth fairy's visit. Don't have any children loosing teeth then it can be used to put a keepsake in or used as a decor pillow that hangs from a door knob or bed post.

How to win

Mini Quilt

I made this quilt for a log cabin mini quilt swap. My swap partner had to provide the center of the log cabin squares and I had to provide the rest.

It's Been A While & Doll Quilt Swap 6
