tis the season!!

the season of giving fabulous business (that you secretly want to keep!!)  LOL... so, what did i do... joined a few swaps, of course!  thus, increasing my pain... hence, this pillow will be joining a table runner i made for my {SavVy} Season's partner's gift, when i mail the package tomorrow with tears in my eyes!!  hahaha... I must say... i've had a little, minimalist, design infatuation lately and i kinda love it a LOT!! Totally, doesn't help it's using one of my all time fav holiday collection...  Happy Holiday by Monica Solorio-Snow!!!  hahaha... Is it just me, or can simple be so much more stunning than super busy??

time to stitch on some hand sewn binding to my table runner, while watching my new 8 disc Harry Potter DVD set!! (early gift from the boy toy!! lOVE him!!) here's to another great day kids!! :)

daddy's girl.

yep... that's me! i luv him, so i whooped him up some autumn pillows for his house! and being the funny man that he is, the first thing he did when he grabbed one...

was check the back for rotten tomato fabric! ha!! then he said,

" thanks dear! " LOL

cracked me up!

i'm off today to try and sew clothes! and yes, i'm quite worried, i'll look like a bag lady when i'm done!! ;)

it's not my fault!

it's Emily's! that clever minx has me not eating, barely running, and juiced up on caffeine just to keep up with my mind while playing with her fabrics! it doesn't matter though... i can't stop, better just cave. hehehe...

i think my youngest is really going to lOVE his Christmas present!

and since i'm a girl... i had to make a bag out of the laminates!

ps... Emily is checking on the release date on these bad boys! :)

because i was working with laminates... i didn't use a pattern, but here is my inspiration for it!! i'm off kids... way too much fun over here to stay on the computer long! LOL

holey bee sting!

now this is was seriously autumn quilt! i knew Melody Miller's new fabric line Ruby Star Rising 2 was going to gorgeous, but i never knew it would hurt so good! (and yes, this is me being cheeky... juiced up on caffeine first thing in the morning! LOL) although, i was given 3 half yards cuts from her new line, due to the additional expense of this lovely fabric and generous size of it... i only used 2 of them for this entire quilt with a little help from fab Kona solids, linen, and quilters linen

(and this little puppy's 60" X 60")!!

Melody also made this fantastic video to share with everyone based on Deborah, from Whipstitch, design for a bee skirt!!! Too friggin cute!

you can also see great examples of RSR2 here and here!!

have a fab Tuesday kids!!
