Doggie Sleep Over


It's been quite sometime since my last post. It's not that I've been busy it's just that I've been having trouble with my asthma. Last night I picked up my Grandpuppy Holly and brought her to my house for a sleep over. We're having a great time together. She was so excited when I picked her up. When we left her house it sure looked like her Mom, Jen, was going to cry. I on the other hand was very happy and excited to have a fur kid in my house again. I just wanted to share this picture that I took of her this morning. She'd already been outside, had her breakfast, took her pill and I put the drops in her ear for her infection. We've been busy. Later on I'll try to remember to take her picture when she goes out because it's snowing here and she looked like a walking snowdog.

January's Accomplishments

I'v been reading everyone's blogs and it seems like most are posting lists of what they quilted for the month of January. OK, so I didn't do as much as I would have liked to but it was a very rough month for me. So here goes my short list of things worked on or finished.

1. Finished the I Love Lucy tote bag sample for the shop.
2. Made four criss cross coasters for the shop with the left over I Love Lucy fabric.
3. Started and finished a work apron for the shop using another of the I Love Lucy fabrics
customizing it complete with lace.
4. Made a pattern and sewed one "body bib" for baby Ethan. I have to mail it out yet.
5. Completed my blocks for the Smore wallhanging that I'm doing for myself.
6. Completed folding and moving all of my fabric to it's new location.
7. Completely redid my sewing area.
8. Cleaned out my spare room.
9. Organized my scraps by color.
10. Organized all my scraps of left over batting. Little pieces are great for small projects.
11. Made a charm pack apron to wear at the shop using batiks.
