A Few Things...

Just a few things on this Sunday evening....
I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. Full of family, fun and love.
I had a lovely day! I thought I would show you what Maggie made for me.



How about this for color inspiration!
It is now hanging in my sewing room.
I love it!

What I have been working on....

Wonky Stars for my Wonky Swap.
I love to make these stars and (giggle) I am using my own tutorial!
(Found on my side bar)!!






 
I am also working on my niece's quilt. I want to have it down by June 10th for her celebration.
I have such GREAT RESPECT  for machine quilters. I just cannot "make it work"!!  I was going nuts just putting on the border for her quilt.  All that fabric on my lap, on the floor, slung over my shoulder! YIKES!!  You machine quilters are amazing!!

I also am trying to learn EQ6! Well, I am happy to say so far so good.  What, yes I am still on lesson one!

So, off to softball this week!  Our team is conference champs and we are so hoping to go to state. Please wish us luck!

Happy Sewing.

  1. Love the wall hanging. Is the fabric painted or did she actually bleed the pens onto it?

    It's all about wonky! I can't believe some people struggle with it! =D

  2. Good Luck to your team!! Love the crayon picture. It looks like she sprayed the crayons with water and they ran down the paper. Is that what she did?

  4. Maggie's crayon art is SO cool! I looked at it in the large size and it's so fascinating. I'd like to know more about how she created it. Your wonky stars are absolutely delightful!
