Quilt Group

Last night our quilt group met! We exchanged our first set of present blocks and they were all so cute! Mine is the super-cute owl one!



Diane finished this amazing seahorse quilt:



Barbara finished 2 pinwheel quilt tops from our pinwheel block exchange a few years ago and her bookshelf quilt!



My flash must not have worked for this picture... the quilt looks so much better in person!



In the bookshelf quilt I made the white snowdrop flower on the bottom shelf of Barbara's quilt as one of the blocks I exchanged. It is the first paper piecing I've ever done. The first block took me 4 hours to make, but once I knew what I was doing the rest of the blocks only took me an hour each!

Felt Heart Wreath

Last night I made this cute heart wreath at my friend's house! I hung it on the inside of my front door! I love it!




Here is a tutorial!

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!

Tulip Festival

We went to the tulip festival yesterday. It was gorgeous!

Glass Tile Necklaces

On Fabulous Friday a couple weeks ago, I made this cute Hello Kitty Necklace for my daughter. I bought extra kits so when craft night was at my house, it was another one of the projects! Everyone got to choose their own patterned paper. So fun and cute!
