Vacation starts tomorrow!!!

Mr. Calamity and I are heading off for a little R & R starting tomorrow. Not for, but we'll have a condo in the woods and fishing and golf close by for the better half and lots of sewing and shopping for me. Can't wait. Be back after Halloween, so wishing you all a spooktackular Halloween. Hope to post when I get back, but you know what week follows and that is the Quilt Festival in Houston. Do you see me doing a happy dance...

See ya' soon,

Bonnie

Trade Day's Show

The booth had a mixture of goodies for the creative customer and the ones that enjoyed items already made.My daughter has started making bows for little ones. So excited she has become excited about crafting. She has made them for the grandbabies and I told her she could sell them.

Geraldine brought some beautiful quilts to purchase.

This was the first time setting up at this show and quilters were delighted.

Fall Into Fall Winner!

I was so excited when Lola's @ http://ansewon.blogspot.com/ was drawn. I think I've visited her off and on since I started blogging. Very inspirational on the sewing table. As before the rest of the package traveling Lola's way is a surprise so I've taken pictures and when she gets the package I'll post photo's. Thank you all who entered and Debi for hosting such a great seasonal giveaway. With the show I did last weekend, I didn't have time to comment back to everyone, but I have found some great blogs.

Lots of photo's coming soon!

Thank you again and Keep Stitchen'

2 Days Late, but we have a Winner!!!

I bet ya thought I just forgot about this giveaway. I really didn't, after getting home from our bee get together, I came home to about 35 pounds of shrimp I had to put up. Boy I love shrimp gumbo, but I really don't like to clean them. My hands are all torn up. So sorry for the delay on this announcement. This is the purse that the winner will receive, I hope she likes Halloween.

Below is the pattern I used. If you haven't sewn one of Nanette's patterns, they are so easy to understand and with great pictures. Freda's Hive is her website, you need to go visit her and see all the patterns she has designed.

And here is the winner, Michelle at Rosebud Quilting
Sewing this just put me in a FALL mood.

Thanks for all that stop in. I also joined facebook, so if you follow me on my page I added at the top of the blog you get two chances on my giveaway's. Hope to have a new tutorial soon, kinda hate to say anything due to out of the blue things getting in the way.

I'm working on items for another show coming up soon, so stay tune.

Giveaway on Wednesday and Sock Monkey Quilt

Short post on what I'm working on and a completed quilt, yea!!! What you see in the picture above is going to be in the giveaway I'm working on coming up. So if you are a follower you'll be in the drawing. Probably it will take place on this coming Wednesday. If I really get with it you might have a choice of the gifty. Spellcheck is telling me that gifty is not a word, but it sounds good to me.

Below is a quilt a finished and hope to list it on etsy tonight or the website. Love me some sock monkeys. This is the front and then the next picture is the back. Tried to get a close up on the quilting.

Hope everyone has a great weekend and still more pictures to be posted soon.

Quilt Retreat Photos

We had such a blast at our retreat with guild members. Putting women together with the same hobbies always turns out to be a good time. The first two pictures I'm sure you'll get a laugh. Ethel made a dirty clothes bag for her laundry. Isn't this the cutest thing. She also taught a lot of the girls quilt as you go at the retreat. So much talent in a little package.

I also need to apologize for some of the photo's, I didn't go to school for photography and you can tell...
