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!!!!
