Just wanted to say......

THANK YOU!!!

I know I have not been the most regular blogger...I must admit I am rather inconsistent to be honest! I do try, however, with 3 wee young children, blogging seems to happen when I have lots to say,something to share or a few spare moments!

With that being said, I just wanted to send out a big thank you to everyone that stops by and says hi, and reads what I am up to!! You all really are the best!

Again,

THANK YOU!!!

THANK YOU!!!

THANK YOU!!!

Hope you all have an amazingly fantastic creative day!!!!!

Starting this weekend....

So, I have had all supplies for a Dear Jane quilt for some time now, well I am FINALLY going to start making it!!!  For some reason this quilt terrifies me and excites me all at the same time! So I figure now is as good as ever to just jump right in and start with a block!

 I will post pictures when they are complete :)

Crafts, quilts and pillows! Lots of Pictures!!oldes

Oh we have been sew busy here. Right now it is really cold outside...-25 and with the windchill -35. Last night it was actually -35 before the windchill....brrrrrrr. With that being said, it has been indoor activity week and trying to get lots done!!

So here is what we have done so far!! The kids did some crafts using up all those itty bitty scraps of fabric I had,  taught my son a bit of sewing knowledge and he made his very first sewing project, and I completed a quilt top. So here are some pictures (there will be a few as I love the pics). I hope you all enjoy them as much as I do!!
