My Last 6 weeks in Pictures....

I took a blog break over the Holiday Season but I was still sewing, baking, decorating, shopping, and relaxing.

Tons of family time!  Just the best as I know you all agree.

So here is what has been going on!

For Annie,  a finish!

Baking...

I will never bake without this paper!

Tea Cakes

Thanks to Jodi for reminding me how much I love these cookies.

Fabric Shopping!

A sweet treat from a friend!

I won a giveaway from Kelly at 

Pink A Dot Quilts

You know I love pink and how cute are those scissors!

Thanks again Kelly!

Started a new table runner from a cute pattern I found on Craftsy.

Stitching during family time movies and a cozy fire.

Look at this great clock I received from my sister for Christmas!

I love it!

Now on to 2015 with these fabrics...

The children and teachers have another day off of school today do to negative wind chills.

My grand-babies are playing play-doh with mommy.  A great stay in and stay warm day.

So you stay safe and do something you love.

See you next week.

WOW !!

Wow!  I know it's not just me everybody is busy this time of year. Busy with gifts to make, gifts to buy, gifts to wrap, cookies to bake, a home and tree to decorate, plus the projects and sewing time we would like to fit into the day.

This time of year for all of us is about family. 

 We joke at our house that I could "never' unplug.  It is so true, I love blogging, pinterest, flickr, and just discovered Instagram!  During a normal month I have time for it all and I bless all those that can do all of that and still create. 

 I however cannot!  

So, I am going to take December off, now let's be real, I still hope to visit these sites but for now.....

( I have this Holy Card from grade school)

I wish each and everyone of you a blessed Christmas and a new year filled with love, joy, good health, and happiness.

See you in January. 

50 States Stitching Club

I did it!  

I caught up!

Well until Tuesday when the next state is posted.

Is anyone else stitching in this club?

Happy Sewing!!

Little Letters and a New Project!

I know a new project, but in my defense I am caught up on my little letters!

See!

♪ ♪ ♫  Q,R,S,T  ♪ ♪

  ♫ ♫ ♪ Alphabetically speaking you're okay ♪ ♫ 

So while I was on Pinterest I saw this...

I could not find the pattern so I am just winging it!  

I cannot draw but I was happy with these little guys.

Plus some fall fabrics from my friend as I do not have these colors in my stash.

Yep, I traced and then stitched the little guys on the wrong side of the fabric. 

Oh well!

I still need to spritz the embroidery to remove the blue lines.

I am now making hexies.  

I might get it done for Thanksgiving, unless a new project catches my eye!

Happy Sewing!

Playing Catch Up!

I have been so busy working and enjoying quilting my Farmer's Wife Quilt that I let a few things slip.

So, today I was playing catch up with my Little Letters.

Here we go!
