My Pinwheel Quilt Donation


I just realized that I didn't post a finished picture of my pinwheel quilt! It turned out so cute that I really didn't want to donate it. But I was told that it was the favorite item and earned a lot of money for the reunion. I bought $20 in raffle tickets trying to win it back, but alas I did not win! :) I absolutely LOVE the binding I found for it!

Hot Fudge Sauce


I tried this Hot Fudge Sauce today. It was pretty good... it took forever for the marshmallows to melt, but it was yummy!

A Pinwheel Quilt

My aunt asked over 6 months ago if I'd make a quilt for the family reunion auction. I said yes... and then, just over a week ago I realized I only had a month left to make a quilt! Yikes. My quilt group suggested I give one of my Halloween quilts! That seemed like a fabulous idea and I was relieved for about a week until I tried to pick which of my Halloween quilts to donate... I couldn't do it. I love them too much! I realized I had my pinwheels that I hadn't made into a quilt yet. I split them in half (so I'd have enough to make a quilt for myself) and stayed up until 3am and 4am two nights in a row to come up with this. I still have to find backing, quilt it and bind it, but I think I'll be able to do it!
