Flying Time!

Time has been flying for me again! Where does it go? :-o

I do have a couple things to show for my absence! ;-)

First~ I was the lucky winner of a jelly roll of  L'amour  from Sew Cindy ~ love it!! I have never made a 1600 quilt, so thought the time was right. My friend in Canada and I sewed' together' for a day and I got most of it done. :-)   And I have been dreaming of a Valentine's quilt for a long time~ so this was absolutely perfect!  Thank you Cindy!!


I had to be creative with the borders.  I had a little bit of fabric in my stash, but not quite enough. :-/  I can't wait to get a backing now and get quilting! :-)


I also finished the mini from Pam Buda's Patchwork Pocket Sew Along.  You can call me crazy, but I love fiddling with little blocks! LOL



I am continuing to stitch on the Over the River and Through the Woods pattern by Crabapple Hill. I'm a little over halfway on the first panel.

Hope you are finding time to stitch too!
'bye for now!

Time..

Am I the only one having trouble with time management this year?  It seems like I have been doing a lot of "wheel-spinning" lately. :-/  I don't remember if I had as hard a time getting going in 2012 as I seem to be having this year.  How about you?


I am stitching at night~ this is my start on my Winter Wonderland project. I love to embroider, but it does seem like I am wading through deep snow on this one. ;-)




I've been following along with Pam Buda's Patchwork Pocket BOW and here is week two. It was a new-to-me-technique and I really enjoyed it. I love playing in scraps! LOL



I've also been organizing, or reorganizing, to find a better storage solution. I love the inspiration of looking at blogs and Pinterest and seeing how organized other quilters are~ maybe it will be me someday. ;-)

Last week I won a giveaway from Annie at Ruby Slipperz and received this book in the mail. :-) Thanks Annie!!




I love the quilt on the red chair!! I don't think I should be looking at new projects right now~ but... I am soooo tempted!! LOL  :-o

How are you doing with the new year? Sewing away? Have your plans for the year? Or having a hard time getting into it?  I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Until next time~
Happy Stitching!!

B-r-r-r-r

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...
