Working On...

Some things for the shop!

Made some wedges for pincushions....

And pieced this baby boy quilt top. I absolutely love it! Searching for some material for the back later today. Then it's time to get 'em done!

Lucky (?) for me it's 90 some odd degrees outside with a heat index in the 100's (ick!) so I am cooped up indoors sewing and such. The pets are otherwise being lazy and laying around napping (how dare they ;) ) instead of being my supervisors. So I have to self motivate to get things done.  I feel like I get things done in fits and spurts. Does this happen to anyone else?

In other news, I've been reading in blogland that it is in fact Christmas in July and I am *slowly* getting motivated to start working on Christmas projects. The stocking pattern that Aneela shared on her blog yesterday is just awesome!

I've also been cleaning the old studio and just listed some fabric de-stash in my shop. ;)

What are you working on this week?

I'm Still Here....

Swooning....

Cat loving...

...and working out what I really want to do with my life. I know. Kind of deep for a Friday. ;)

I had started a new job in my new career and worked 30 days before coming to the conclusion that the office just wasn't for me. Onwards and upwards!

I'll be back soon. Have a great weekend!

Summer Flowers

Over the weekend I stitched up this sweet, sweet pattern by Aneela Hoey called Summer Flowers. I quite like how it turned out!  I'm not sure yet what I'll do with it. I stitched it on a substantial sized piece of white fabric, leaving the option to make a pillow or cut it down to frame, or use in a mini quilt.

Aneela is offering this pattern free on her blog . Should you feel inclined, run right on over, download the pattern and start stitching it up yourself!

Have a great week everyone!
