Something to pass the time

So here is one of my current projects....yes i said current...seems i always have multiple projects going at the same time.  I am handquilting this with quilters dream cotton and YLI thread...i love that thread.

Here is is my mod christmas tree

So i finished up the wallhanging today but i couldnt get a great picture bc its been horribly gray outside today with lots and lots of rain from tropical storm Lee...so i am just going to post the picture from yesterday before i had the binding complete and the threads trimmed....i did the binding with the left over charms so its scrappy.  I did the fmq myself and lets just say i really do not like doing fmq at all....and i really love to send my stuff out until i get my own long arm machine...but i also am impatient when it comes to christmas stuff lol...i just love christmas....so here are the pictures

I started another project today and will post pictures of that soon as its finished except for the binding which i am working on tonight...while i was sitting in my sewing room.....its actually our formal dinning room that we never use for formal dinners....i was listening to the kids playing in the living room...they made a fort with just about every blanket and quilt in the house....well i hear them giggling and playing in the fort then i hear Aiden my 4 year old say " lets tell smooky stories"  lol i just giggled to myself how cute is that smooky stories...he is such a little ham.
Hope everyone had a blessed labor day

2 packs of Nature's Gifts charms...

Well i am not gonna show you the whole thing yet...you will have to come back tommorow...i just need to do the binding tonight then its all done.  But here is a little teaser of what i am working on....this project has piecing and needle turn applique in it

Labor day fun....

Well usually every Labor Day we have a big cook out and have people over,  well this year since my hushand isnt here i am just not going to do all that by myself. So i decided i am going to have my own party....a sewing party.  I am going to sew all weekend how fun is that?  I have some christmas charm packs that are just sitting here at they keep telling me to make something with them so thats what i will be doing,  be sure to stop back later this weekend to see pictures of what i am making.
Hope each and every one of you have a blessed Labor Day weekend

A Beautiful Finish

Here i am again back to blogging...i really am going to try and keep up this time.  So my Oasis quilt is finally quilted.  I call it my Oasis Chain and its from a moda bake shop pattern found here http://www.modabakeshop.com/2011/03/chain-of-faith.html I absolutely love how it turned out and My long armer Charisma did a fabulous job.  Her talent is amazing and she always makes my quilts shine.  I am planning to enter this quilt in our local fair,  i have never entered anything so wish me luck.  All thats left to do on it is binding.  Hope you enjoy the pictures.  

Thanks for stopping by my blog
