Thanksgiving Giving

These are the Thanksgiving Napkins I made for Helen (my MIL). I am very lucky to have a great MIL. I made her a dozen from some great Linen that Capril found down at SAS. You never know what you are going to find there, but you always now it will be a bargain. I monogrammed them on the Designer Diamond and finished the edges with the Wave Stitch on a new Babylock Serger. I am so in love with these sergers. They are amazing. The quickest and easiest threading you have ever seen. And perfect tension. I really gotta get me one! Santa can you hear me? I have been a very good girl this year!

Old Crow and the Harverst Moon

At the end of the Journey you are just an Old Crow! I read that somewhere and it kinda stuck with me. I love crows, well at least pictures of crows. I am not so crazy about the noise or mess they make. This crow was made using 4D Sketch. Sketch lets you create stitches to machine embroider as if you were sketching the stitches. I think is a really cool program. I just stitched it over a black peice of fabric and then cut away the excess.

Hush-a-Bye Three Ways!

I finally finished all three of my Hush-a-Bye quilts. I needed to make a baby gift and I loved these fabrics so much that I could not stop ordering and ended making three. I love all of them!

They will be hanging at Tannerville for the next few weeks if you want to take a peek in person.

I really like Tula Pink fabrics and will also be making 3 quilts from her Neptune line. I have most of the fabrics I need. Just not the time.

Time!All I need is Time! I used to laugh when the man across the street used to say that. Now, I know exactly what he meant. :-)

Fall into Tannerville

It has been a busy week. Capril and I got a fall window done. The pictures really don't do it justice. You need to come by and see it in person. A cool all wound up Cornucopia with some fabric veggies and we transformed the coat rack into a tree. I love the tree!


We are going to start working on the Christmas window this week. It is going to be fabulous, but you'll have to wait until after Thanksgiving.

One Class Sample Done!

I got one of my class samples done! It is my Xmas version of All Wound Up. I am teaching it on Wednesday, November 18th from 2-5pm at Tannerville. It is fun stress free sewing. You can sign up online if you are interested. http://www.tannersewandvac.com/

I am totally not ready for Xmas yet. It is only like 7 weeks away. Where does the time go?

Wow! I have posted twice in one week.

Talk to you soon,

Way Too Long!

Well its been way too long since I last posted. All week I have been waiting for one of my favorite blogs to update and getting kinda irked it hadn't. That is when it hit me I can't even post once a week, Wow! am I a hypocrite. Yikes! It has been 3 months, so I got out the camera to show you what I have been doing today. With the time change I got an early start. Today is going to be a good day!

Binding on 3 quilts. I've gotten it sewn on all 3 now I need to hand stitch it all down. Now you now what I will be working on every night. When they are all finished I will show you the finished product.

I have class samples to get started on but I am going to be posting at least once a week. That is my new goal.
