Happy Dance !!!!

Today I went into town to do some shopping for nice bright fabrics as there was a special deal. Spend $100 and get $40 off....
I was waiting for Toni's fantastic " Happy Quilts" book which I was lucky to win in her giveaway....

When I arrived back into town decided to go to the Post Office before driving home....I was sew delighted to have a red and white card in my mail box...which means there was a parcel inside waiting for me and guess what was inside ???

My copy of Toni's Book plus an adorable stuffed toy...Love him and have named him Tony....
Oh!! I can't wait to download some of the gorgeous patterns to make some quilts and toys ...Thank you sew much Toni.... No wonder I am doing a Happy Dance.....

I also love the quilting Fiona from BugzRugz has done on all the quilts for Toni... gives me good ideas. LOL...

Have a Patch meeting tonight and will show of my book.....


Happy Sewing.

FNSI X 2

It was sew nice to find a flimsy I had started some time ago, get it sandwiched and then quilt along with Wendy for FNSI and enjoy sewing again.... thanks Wendy....

Working on something different and joining others must have done the trick for my mojo to return. Did a lot of the quilting Friday night and completed it on Saturday night. Now to finish the binding...

Also made two "Maple Leaf" blocks to send to Canada for the dear folks who lost everything in the HUGE fires...

Sue from  Super Mom -No Cape posted a fabulous tutorial on her blog to make the Maple Leaf and the address of where to send the blocks..


then sat and relaxed while doing some stitching on this SS Block....

This is the next block....PP and sew many tiny pieces as the block is 6 1/2 " finish .. Not sure if I will tackle it ???????

Off to see what the other ladies made for FNSI .

Happy Stitching..

Lost

Does anyone know where my mojo is ???   I seam to have lost it.. But I am hoping by joining Wendy and the ladies on Friday for FNSI I will be inspired to put a flimsy together.


Sew good to have the Splendid Sampler Blocks to do

At least I am doing a bit of stitching.....

Look forward to sewing along with you all tomorrow ... You can sign up over at Wendy's Here....

Happy Stitching..
