January 2011 in review!!

Well, this was not a big sewing month for me.

But I did manage to finish a few projects.

I got my first UFO done! Yeah!!! That feels really good.

I also made a little hanging heart.

I love this one.

And a little bag.

And a mug rug.

I helped my kids make the placemats. Plus I quilted and bound them.

I got 2 bee blocks done too.



Okay, well maybe I did better than I originally thought.

LOL!!!

I guess that's why it's always good to look back at our projects, eh!!!

I also did some work on my hexagon star quilt.

I got another 1.5 rows of stars hand pieced.

I'm trying to get a few more rows stitched to the main body of the quilt.

I really want to show you how big it's getting.

Well, I'm glad I had a look back at my month.

It made me feel much better.

Book giveaway

Just thought I would share that Melinda Evaul is giving away a copy of her new book "Grow Old With Me" on her blog.

It's the 1st fictional novel in this series of Quilt Trail Novels.

I would just so love to win this.

So, I thought I would share it with you.

Go check it out!

Two blocks done.....

three more to go!!

I'm behind on my bee blocks again.

So, I got caught up with Sarah's blocks this morning.

Here they are.

A liberated Churn Dash Block and...

A signature house block.

I have to take my oldest to the doctors this afternoon.

Hopefully I can get the other 3 done today and in the mail too.

I'm glad to be off work today and tomorrow.

It's nice to be able to sleep in until at least 7:30 am.

Getting up at 5:00 am is a little early for me.

Have a good day!!

I blogged.

Congratulations Debbie!!!!

I will send you an email.

I hope everyone has been well.

It has been so cold here the last two days.

Freezing.......

Your eyes water and your tears freeze to your eyelashes, it's so cold.

Unfortunately, I've been very busy and haven't had a chance to do much sewing.

Here is a picture of a bag I made a while back and gave to my friend Michelle.

Can't have a post without a photo.

I hope you like it!!
