A Tree Fully Dressed and A Very Thoughtful PIF

Can you see, I have my tree dressed for the Spring weather. Love to take pictures outside and these are some of the dresses ready to go for the next show and etsy. Tooth Fairy pillows are in line next. Wonder how I can take a picture of them in the tree. I'll show you how I make some of the pillows soon.

Now look at what Linda @ http://all-stitched-up.blogspot.com/ sent me for a PIF gift. I forgot all about the PIF and it was such a great surprise to find in the mail yesterday. Thank you so much Linda and so glad you are back sewing away. She will be having surgery on her shoulder so we need to keep her in our prayers for a speedy recovery.

Look at the quilting designs, same as the flowers appliqued around. Feels like spring is in the air.

Keep Stitchin'

New BOM Found-Fabric and PIF's

New BOM Found-Fabric and PIF's

This BOM that Jenny @ http://elefantz.blogspot.com/ has done is so cute. I really need to get started on this one. Just click on the picture and it will take you to her site. Be sure and let her know you saw it on my blog. I know it's been out there, but just in case someone hasn't seen it, beautiful work Jenny.

This is some of the fabric I'll be listing on Etsy and on http://calamityjanescottage.com/ . I'll show more pictures soon of the baby quilt and a quilt I'm working on with some of the fabric from above.

Oh, I forgot to say, I finished 2 PIF's and 1 more to go, almost done. They will be on there way tomorrow. WooHoo, is that how you say it?

New Round of Pay It Forward-PIF Oh I forgot to add my post on dieting...

New Round of Pay It Forward-PIF

I joined Linda's PIF so you know what that means, I need to do the same. So here are the rules and we are doing handmade gifts.

It’s the Pay It Forward Exchange. It’s based of the concept of the movie “Pay it Forward” where acts or deeds of kindness are done without expecting something in return, just passing it on, with hope that the recipients of the acts of kindness are passed on. So here’s how it works. I will make and send a handmade gift to the first 3 people who leave a comment to this post on the blog requesting to join this PIF exchange. I do not know what that gift will be yet, and it won’t be sent this month, probably not next month, but it will be sent (within 6 months) and that’s a promise! What YOU have to do in return, then, is pay it forward by making the same promise on your blog.

I get so excited about this and can't wait to get started.

OK Sharon, here goes, I got out today and bought oranges and grapes, they looked pretty good. I baked a chicken with carrots, celery and new potatoes with Lipton onion soup mix and we had string beans with this. I thought I did pretty good for the first day. Now I need to go and get new shoes for some kind of work out. I'm not as brave as you on showing pictures but will have a lb lost post. Come on girls we can do this.

Don't forget to sign up for the Whirl Into Winter giveaway in the post below!!!

Update PIF is now closed, thanks for joining
