Peaceful Sunday....

It's been raining for a couple of days; it finally stopped today. Now, it's almost winter again. Good time to snuggle up in a warm quilt. My friend received her blue/yellow raggy quilt, which is about 46" by 58". I also made a girl I Spy quilt, which is about 36" square. You will notice that no two prints are identical; that is why all my quilts are one of a kind. If you're interested, I can custom make you a raggy quilt.

Good Morning, Wednesday, February 1st!

Good Morning! It's February 1st and it's muggy and drizzling, but I'm still glad to be alive. How about you?
I've been busy sewing and babysitting. What a great combination! I've been working on a special order; she wanted a blue & yellow raggy lap quilt. I'll post it as soon as it arrives in North Carolina.
Today I'm going to start on an I Spy raggy quilt. I only have one little blankie left to sell -- after all the ones I've made in the past. Maybe I'll make more than one, lol. Here is a photo of one of my I Spy quilts.
Have a great day!

Two new quilt tops

We are having beautiful weather here in southeast Texas. Hope it continues! I'm keeping myself busy working on my stash. I've completed two quilt tops; one is Happy Houses and the other one is scrappy strip blocks. The sad thing is I found even more strips as I was putting these two quilts together, lol. If you are interested, just "contact me".

Good Morning, 2012!

Good Morning! I sure hope 2012 is better for me than 2011, lol. I started off the year waiting for my surgery; and ended up not feeling well. Last Saturday was the 1st almost normal day for me since last November. Even though I haven't felt like doing much, I have slowly continued sewing. My latest project was two quilt tops I made to sell. They are listed in eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/300647449128?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649.
I've also been working on my 2" postage stamp quilt. I'll post pictures of my blocks soon; I believe there are about 20 now. I'm not sure of my setting; I'll have to think on that. Hope you all have a great Monday!

Handmade fabric yo yos

Hello, blogger friends! Sorry I haven't been posting. I'm still busy with grandkids and sewing. In September, I started volunteering with a local museum. They are doing "Wild Catters" weekends once a month and I've been doing crafts. This weekend is our Chrismtas one and I'm making yo yos. The kids will make their own; however, I have some yo yos already made; they will only have to glue on button and the hanger. I'm also going to be selling them. I'll be listing them soon in my selling blog. I can make them in any color and theme.

Hello on 11/11/11

How is everyone doing? I've been busy, busy with grandkids and with sewing. I did finish the 3rd raggy quilt for my 3rd DGD. We had a nice birthday party at our house; she also had a party with her mom's family.
I've also been working on organizer totes. There are either 8 or 9 pockets, inside & outside; fabrics are 100% cotton. I can make them in your choice of colors and themes. E-mail me for details.

My newest raggy totes

Hello! Has everyone else been as busy as I've been? Between sewing and grandkids, my days are full. I did finish two of the three birthday raggy quilts; will finish the 3rd one before end of month. This last week, i made three more raggy totes. they have either 8 or 9 pockets inside and outside. The one with the sewing theme is a sample of a bag that will eventually be for Avon samples. I can make any bag in whatever your fave fabric is. The pink & multi color ones are 13" by 8.5" by 4.5"; the quilting theme one is 14" by 12" by 4.5".
