I Spy blankie

Good Morning!  Yesterday was a wonderful Mother's Day!  My sweet DIL, Laurie, took a photo of Josh holding the newest I Spy blankie.  Josh is our youngest DGS; Meagan is sitting next to him.  They are loving cousins.  (If the photo doesn't show up, check my etsy items.)

I didn't realize it had been so long since I had posted. I've been busy sewing and preparing for my 2nd cataract surgery, which was a success. Now, I just have to wait to order my new glasses. Of course, I'm using cheap reading glasses for now. They have allowed me to read, sew and do computer work, but I can't wait to get some "real" glasses. Here is my latest sewing; an I Spy girlie blankie. This is perfect for your toddler to drag around instead of a larger quilt. Check out my selling blog, Raggy Anne Creations for more quilts.

Happy Easter!

Hope everyone had a good Easter. We did! It's always nice to share special meals with family members, though we did miss our oldest daughter & her family.
I've been sewing pillowcase dresses again. This time, I'm also making doll dresses to match; they fit the 18" dolls. They are listed on eBay right now; I need to add them to my selling blog.

Bright Market Bag

Good Morning! It seems a little overcast today. Where is our pretty Spring weather? lol Here is the completed market tote. It came out about 16" by 16" by 5.5". Check out my selling blog; these market bags are now for sale.

Good Morning, April 1st!

Where has the year gone? It seems like it's zipping away. I've been keeping busy with sewing and grandkids, not necessarily in that order, lol. My main project for the year is reorganizing my sewing room. I have made headway, but still not finished. I do pretty good, then I just HAVE to stop to sew. The last few days I've been trading with other quilters. I've cut out squares and strips; also am making a tote to trade for a paper piece book. My friend wanted brights, so I sent her these photos. Thank goodness, she liked them. I love brights, but don't have a lot in my stash. While I'm working on this tote (it will be a large market-type tote for her to take to her LQS for her purchases), I'm also working on a raggy tote in the same colors. I'll post a photo when it's completed.
Have a peaceful Sunday!

Paper Piece Blocks

Our weather has been so pretty. But today we had rain; hope it clears up soon. I've been staying inside sewing. I joined a paper pieced row robin; here are my 1st blocks for my own row. Aren't they pretty?

Pincushions

The weather here in southeast Texas is so pretty; it's almost like summer. I was asked to make a smaller pincushion, so I made a few. Here are two of them; they are stuffed with steel wool. These will be listed in etsy or you can contact me.
