One track mind...

Ok... So I've caught the sewing bug...

I've been having so much fun. Made another quilt. This one for Emily. She chose the colors. It's turning out awesome, so far. I'm just waiting for a foot for my sewing machine to come in the mail before I can finish it.

Also made a couple of tote bags this afternoon...

Sewing Saturday

A couple of weeks ago, my aunt and cousins spent a day sewing together. They made a beautiful quilt and they blogged about it here. It inspired me. I am making my quilt to match my family room.


These are the fabrics I chose.


These are my finished blocks.














This is my final layout.


My finished quilt top...

I haven't sewed in so long. It was such a fun project. I can't wait to start another one...


Megan felt like sewing too.


She did her project with minimal help from me. The torch is definitely passing...




This is her final product! A warm flannel blanket to donate to Project Linus. What a fun mother/daughter afternoon.
