Me and My Prized Possession... =b

Hello... I know it's been awhile... I am going to try to post more often... this is the beautiful doll quilt I received from mtnb on Flickr... I love turtles as you guys know and this doll quilt is just amazing... So far I've been in two doll quilt swaps and I've been lucky both times to receive quilts from two lovely ladies who both left me at a loss for words... ... ... the doll quilt I made has finally made it's way to my swap partner... I know now how to send it faster and at a flat rate... Thanks Bea!

I am joining a kids sewing bee online, if I joined in time... cross your fingers... =b should be fun... I'll let you know about that when the time comes...

I have been starting to buy more fabric but for different projects... Once I settle on one, I will show you my progress... Maybe soon I'll get started on my Indian Ladies...

About the fam bam... we all had a great Mothers Day at my in-laws... food galore... =b My two big boys made me a vase with flowers at school... too cute... and my 2 year old has got some personality... He's letting us know how things are supposed to get done around here... lol... love em...

Up to Date...

It's been awhile since my last post and I just wanna get you updated on what I've been up to... I was in our 2nd family Christmas Exchange, where about 9 of us make something and then do a gift exchange... We were all a little late, so our Christmas Exchange ended up happening in late January... =b That won't happen this year... We will set a date and there won't be any make up dates... Below is the quilt I made for our gift exchange... I say it's a Lakers Quilt... My sister is holding it up for me... Below is the BACK of the doll quilt I am making for the DQS6... I may show the front of it when I actually finish and send it off... I don't wanna give out too much info about it, but the back kinda gives you an idea of what the front may look like... I actually just completed binding it today and will have to get to work on the quilt label...

My family is also supposed to be trying to work on some Indian Women for an Exchange too... of course I haven't started... I bought a few fabrics to work with, but now I need to get started... and there's a couple more projects I wanna get started on... once I do get started, I will start to post more often... thanks for taking the time out to read my little blog... =b
