A Little Catch Up~


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
First~ JJWelch, you asked a question about my fabric in my Oslo Craft Bag. But didn't leave me an email address, so I hope you see this. :-) Congratulations on your new featherweight!  The fabric I used is called 'And Sew On' by Fresh Designs for Henry Glass. I found it in a little shop in Yelm, WA called GeeGee's. Their phone number is on their website and they are some of  the nicest quilt shops ladies I have ever encountered!  Good luck!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Next~ 
I have over 120 4-patches in that pile of strips in my previous post!  :-o I even surprised myself!
But since I need over 200, I had to go back and cut more strips. After sewing them up, I am still 30 short. Will I ever get these 4-patches finished?

Finally~
While gone on our trip Liz at Moments blog revealed her newest pattern~ Grace
I had the pleasure of testing this one and I really enjoyed it!
It is unique.

I made mine in Christmas fabric that I picked up at Hobby Lobby last year.  I love this festive fabric!
It is decorator weight, so I didn't need a lot of interfacing.


The inside is another Christmas looking print I had in my stash. :-) Don't you love a healthy stash?! LOL
I have started carrying this one this week and have gotten some lovely comments.  :-)

Are you busy doing holiday sewing? I have a number of irons in that fire and will be back soon to show you some completed projects. Until then~

Happy stitchin'!!

Your finish work is beautiful. I plan on getting the gifts and cards out this week and then it is my time, so hopefully my plan works out and nothing goes wrong;)

Very cute new bag!

Your mom showed her bag from the African fabrics at guild on Saturday. You two have a lot of fun making pretty bags.

On a side note - I have a cousin in Yelm WA. Now I know if I ever get there to visit, there is a quilt shop to go to as well.

I LOVE that Christmas bag!

Who knew that having a Halloween Hop last week would bring the chilly weather?! We had rain, wind--- the power even went out for a few hours...
