Jessica from Unmeasured Journey. Congrats. Send me your info and I will get this in the mail. Thank you for all who have entered.
Today I am so sore, I think after exercise today (reason for being sore, going to the gym) I will rest the legs and abs and do some sewing. With the storms we’ve had this past week, our yard is turning a pretty green. With this said sitting at my sewing machine watching the birds and squirrels is the place for me.
Got this cute Ugly Duckling little hanging project finished. 
Now play time is over and I have to get to work on 2 prom dresses. Prom is next month and with 2 of the 3 granddaughters wanting me to make the dresses, I will be working on that. The reason for me making them is 1) they want something very specific, 2) can’t find what they want at the stores, 3) I can take their 3 or 4 dresses and put them into 1. I will post the progress of these dresses as we go.
NOW just a reminder of our giveaway. Respond to this email with a Hi or hello and you will be entered. This is what you can win.
5 inch square pack of island batik, 2 patterns, threader and Missouri Star Quilt key chain.
Thanks so much for making blogging so much fun.
Today was a great day 25ish ladies who like being creative. What could be a better way to spend the day. Saw many wonderful new ideas and had fun at mini retreat.
I think tomorrow I plan on making a casserole carrier. So much fun in one day. Tomorrow I will get some bread on to rise, do some sewing and then take the grand daughter for a walk if weather permits.
What are your plans for this weekend?
Definitely not a good idea. We are having our windows replaced and I am loving them. DON’T start trying to cut out specific measurements when men on ladders are outside your window…I had to re-cut 2 sets of squares because my attention was on a pair of legs out my window. Did not measure right. What should have been 9 7/8 turned into 6 7/8 and then 5 1/2, ended up 3 1/2. I told my husband that I thought about taking a picture of it and then decided it would not be appropriate.
I was so intent on what I was doing that seeing legs all of a sudden got the attention. I then thought “This would make a funny wall hanging”. I think I may have to draw it out to see how it would read.
Will have to see how the rest of the day goes.
While doing some moving things to have new windows installed, I came across this. It has been on a shelf for a while. When the Johnny Depp’s version of Alice In Wonderland was coming out a sewing club I belong to had a challenge to make anything related to the movie. Here is my version of The Tea set that you may find in Wonderland.
Teapot, a couple cups and a little gift for the party. This was so much fun.
Don’t forget to say Hello or Hi to get into the Giveaway.
So sorry for the late post. I have added a this 5″ square packet which contains 42 pieces and 21 fabric designs to the Give away. 
All you need to do is say hello to any of our posts. Drawing will end March 7th at midnight. I will announce the winner on March 8th. So to recap…drawing starting now till Midnight of March 7th, Send us a Hello, and you could win…the Island Batik bundle, 2 patterns, needle threaders and a Missouri Star Key Chain.
While out shopping the other day I found these for a Giveaway. 
Two patterns, a set of threaders and a Missouri Star Quilt keychain. This will start on March 1st and go thru to March 7th. Thinking of adding a few other items, between now and the first. I will post any changes.
Yesterday before Son and Daughter in law came over I made some of these flat iron cases. I like these better than the first. 
If hot when put away cord goes in back pocket. It not hot then you can carry your comb/brush in the back pocket.
More to come.
Getting some wonderful items together for a March giveaway. Just a little tease. On Monday I will post what the giveaway will be and how long.
As far as today it is cold out doors and I will be staying in. Hopefully in the sewing room. I have my fabric picked out and pattern handy so I will start working on my Kaleidoscope quilt. Pictures of fabric yet to be come. Then pictures of the progress.
For now I am in need of suggestions. I was given 8 12inch finished blocks of Hawaiian prints. What could I do with them? They are pretty, but I don’t have any of these fabrics to make a whole quilt. Suggestions?
I made a flat iron carrier today. It is made with Insulbright so it will not burn if it is hot. It was fun and I plan on making more for the craft fairs. It will also make some great Christmas gifts for the Granddaughters. 2 of them travel racing BMX bikes and as you know, teenagers HAVE to have their hair just right and make up on even under a helmet. One is involved with the Plays and Drama in High School and one in College. All will be able to use them. 
Sorry last picture is up side down.
While on vacation we went to several (LOTS really) National Parks. Little did I know they sold these nice printed fabric pictures for quilts. I laid them on on my design wall trying to decide on a quilt. 
On my next vacation I will save about $150.00 and print off some of my pictures. I can use that money on fabric.
On Monday I asked how I should hang the Salsa mini quilt. Suggestions were cute clips. Today I think I will go out searching for some. I love going on the search, how about you?
Have a wonderful day.
