For my sweetie...


My sweet Bill...
So patient...




He's been waiting a LONG TIME
for this beauty...

My Swap partners at Block Swap Adventures
helped me with this quilt all last year...
and it is finally getting it's final finish
of stitching on the new machine!


I don't think Mr. Bill is too sad that I am
in my studio every night working...


Especially when it is for him!!!!

Working on my WIPs and
cranking them out...
Never a Bad thing!

First block...



This is the first official block sewn on my
new machine...

Can I tell you how nice it is to have
a genuine 1/4 inch seam?




I hope my Block Swap partner enjoyed her new block!

Fancy Flea Goodness


I have to admit...
It has been hard to pull me out of my studio...
and when I do come out for a bit...
I am finding that my new addiction to
Instagram is a pretty serious affair!




I am currently working on a little Flea Market Fancy
project ....and I am not sure where it is headed...
but I do love seeing all those colors up on mydesign board!

Where I have been.... :)



I was given a half of day off work a few weeks back...
so, I decided to stop by my favorite fabric store on the way home...





Everytime I have gone in, I have wandered over to look
at this beautiful machine...
This time was no different.




The price alone was enough to send me running from the store.

But that day....

It. was. on. SALE!!!!!



When I left, I called my sweet man.
I asked for a loan.  :)
and he SAID...



!!!!YES!!!!!


So, the following week, he surprised me
and picked it up!

and see that stack of goodness behind the
new machine?

Yep...he brought me that too!

:)



And He hasn't seen me since ....


hehehehehehehe!!!!



A few years back...3 maybe?

 A little over 3 years ago, our little quilt shop grew up. We moved to a larger space and hired more employees. So much has happened in thos...
