I have been plugging away at my wip pile as I set out to do but was pleasantly distracted by a commissioned quilt for a baby shower.  My youngest daughter's best friend is having a baby girl and she is throwing her a shower 😊.  She told me what colors and we went shopping for fabric together.


Also she requested a diaper cake and that is in the works... pictures to follow as soon as it is completed.  In between I am working on a Christmas quilt for next year.  I started it three years ago so it will be nice to get it finished

Happy New Year

I successfully completed my  Christmas sewing, which this year consisted of fabric shopping bags



 Thirty of them to be exact.  I decided to work on my wip pile which is honestly overwhelming.  I have come to terms with the fact that I may have crafting add.  The idea was to attack quilt tops in all stages of completion... most just need basting.  What do I do instead?  Start two new quilts... ugghh. 😊 . I want to also grow my blog as I have been reading blogs and have gleened so much knowledge, not to mention inspiration.  I would like to share in that.  Here is just a peek of the things I have been working on the past few weeks.  I also made a total of 7 memory pillows from flannel shirts that belonged to a customers father. The picture shows just two of them.  I finished a quilt for a friend.  It was made from scraps from two other quilts I previously made.  I highly recommend the fabric grocery bag pattern by Michelle's patterns.  They are a quick make and are very roomy
