Today I'm working on my 16th appliqué block for my friendship group. I love doing appliqué but it took a little while to get the hang of it. I still need more practice before it's perfect.
However, the journey is fun!

Today I went to a great outdoor sale at our local quilt store. It was so much fun and lots of great deals!

I loved making and designing this pincushion. It was crocheted with wool and embellished with layers and layers of thread. 

I went to an amazing quilt show in Southern California this last weekend and learned a new helpful tip for joining two strips of fabric together with no sewing and no knots. It works great!

This weekend I went to a great Quilt Show in Modesto, Ca. I picked up a great new tool for making rag rugs. I'm looking forward to using up all of my ugly fabrics, and seeing what I can come up with. I'm thinking about making a purse.

This pin cushion is made out of repurposed wool and even drapery fabric. Then finished off with a crocheted trim.

Don't you just love the versatility of fleece. This is a poncho I made for my granddaughter.

Baby is on the way!

I love this time of year...the yarn is on sale everywhere! I can't keep  myself from buying more even though I  already have a closet full. Well, at least I have plenty of patterns to keep myself busy. I just finished a granny square blanket  for my daughters baby shower(its a girl!). I have to get busy on those little booties. I love the colors she picked for the nursery...green and purple! Its fun to work with colors other then just  pink ( although I love pink!).
