{this moment}
A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. If you're inspired to do the same, leave a link to your 'moment' in the comments for all to find and see.

Grayson William Maxwell...where are you???
Dear little GB Gray,
Gigi and Papa have been waiting for you for a very long time...
almost 9 months now...
I was so hoping you would be here now...
but that's ok...you can be my Valentine...
After all, that is when you are supposed to really arrive.
Until then, I have been one busy Gigi...
Your mommy asked me to make this pattern for you..
(Giant Hexie Quilt Pattern by Blueberry Park)
And, She picked out all the Riley Blake Fabrics...
I just KNOW you will love them...
They are so bright and soft....
Papa and I may live in Texas, but we will be there as soon
as we can if you choose to arrive before your due date...
Until then, we are praying for your Daddy and Mommy,
your healthy arrival,
and our safe travels when it comes time..
Be good, and in a little while,
I can tell you all this in person after you are all wrapped up in
your new little quilt.
We love you Grayson...
:)

Top Secret and a Star...
I have been working in my studio on a
TOP SECRET
project now for about 2 months...
I CAN NOT WAIT to show it to you...
It is the design work of one of my favorite ladies...
(not to be revealed yet...)
and it took an entire VILLAGE of blogging friends to help pull it off...
Now in the final stages, I am VERY excited to have it almost ready...
Can I share it with you yet?
NO!
But does it count that I really WANT to???
:)
**************************
But, I digress...
I did have the opportunity to take a break last night and be an Angel.
Sometimes I will get a note from my last block swap group -
aka: The Block Swap Adventure, to be an angel
to someone that didn't receive a block.
I LOVE doing it, and so I usually say yes when given the chance...
This little block was for a sweet lady named Dawnelle out in Arizona.
It is rare that someone requests something in Batik...
and then gives purple as one of their color choices.
but YES! I had both!!!!
The fabric is from Hoffman Fabrics / Bali Strips / BT 226 Seaholly .
These are hand painted and GORGEOUS!
I mean the detail on these squares is some of my absolute favorite
batiks material EVER.
If you aren't a fan now of Batiks...you will be.
This fabric is some of the best I have ever quilted on.
You will love it!
