Update on Market Bag

Well, I have all the pieces ready to go. One side quilted the other with lots of pockets, now I just need to sew everything down and put it together. This bag will be able to hold your grocery's for a quick run-in. I hate to get the plastic bags so I always try to have a bag in the car.

What's on the Cutting Table...

If you have followed my blog you probably know that I really jump into projects not knowing what is going to come out of it. The baby quilt below was done just by putting blocks together and making them fit in measurements. Love this, the challenge is something I enjoy.

So on my next adventure I wanted to add a large Market Bag to the shop. This is how it is starting and I'll post pictures as the project goes. 2 1/2" inch strip are always handy to have. Picked out some colors that makes me happy and away we go.

How about some FAT QUARTERS for a GIVEAWAY!

Thought I would gather some Valentine fat quarters to be given away on Feb. 1st. All from Moda and could be made into something cute for a Valentine gift for someone special. On this giveaway just tell me one word that describes the love of your life. (Could be husband, friend or even a pet) That will give you an extra chance and then if you are a follower on the Blog or Facebook you are automatically included in the drawing.

The baby quilt below is what I've been finishing on these rainy days here in Texas. Needs to be quilted and then added to the shop. I hope all of you up North are staying warm.

Not much sewn today after Dr's. appointment

I've been sick since Saturday and I have to make myself go to the Dr., so when I do hubby knows I don't feel well. Ear and sinus infection, fever, head feels like a drum that is being beat on. Ulk!!! Thank goodness my Dr. believes in shots, I always say you get better faster with a good old' stick. So this is all I've done, letting the machine do the sewing today. Hope to show them fisished tomorrow.

If you are on a diet, don't look at the above pictures, well I should of wrote this above the pictures. I've been in the kitchen this morning, cooking some of my husbands favorites. Nothing like a good gumbo, rising rolls and potato salad.

I can't believe I haven't talked to ya since last year so this might be a little long. I was watching Julie & Julia, one of my favorite shows and I want tell you how many times I've watched it. Maybe it's a favorite because I see myself in Julie as of never finishing things she has started. Oh, I finish some projects but it takes a lot to accomplish this. Wanting to move on the the next project or my mind always racing "What can I do next"... What am I getting at? I need to take pictures of whatever is on the cutting table or the sewing machine, finished or not, just to post something. Is there anyone else out there like this? List don't help, I just grab a piece of paper and make a new one. Wasting time is not an option, work has to get done...So below are some pictures and they are actually finished, but more are cut out to update my shop.
