Ohhh my goodness, this week has completely flown by. I can't believe I'm almost done with Thursday and racing toward Friday! I've had a big two days, full days at the quilt store. I'm completely out of touch with working whole days and I'm feeling really washed out. How I used to work full time before Cameron arrived I'll never know.
I thought I'd share some pictures from the store yesterday afternoon. As you know, I've been knitting socks, and the knitting bug seems to have caught on with a LOT of the other girls. Even Cheryl has knitted up a cute bag - I never thought I'd see Cheryl knitting, but you just never know what peer pressure will do to people *vbs*
And here is a quilt that Jenny has been working on for a while. She's just gotten it back from the machine quilter. My cell phone picture doesn't do it justice - this is one lovely quilt. Jenny has declared that she won't be working with any blue strips for a mighty long time!
Last of all, I have fulfilled my promise, and there are a couple more Sewing Machine Mats in my Etsy store. I just finished the binding on one a few minutes ago.
Tomorrow I'm going to have a fun day playing with the 'surprise quilt'. I picked up the backing and the batt today at the quilt store. Cheryl kindly donated them toward the special gift - she's such a honey. I'm really excited about how the quilt is coming together, and as soon as I can, I'll share some more pictures. I'm now going to make lunches for tomorrow, and then head to the land of nod - I really feel like I've earned a big night's sleep. x o x

What fun projects. That knit bag is adorable. I love that fluffy yarn! Sleep well -- you've earned it!
ReplyDeleteTazzie,
ReplyDeleteUpon seeing your pictures, I thought you were going to say that the purse was knit from strings left over from the quilt! They look the same color to me! That would be taking recycling a little too far, yes?

Your sewing machine mats are pretty and very useful. Makes the FW look even better.
ReplyDeleteI love the blue strings and don't doubt there are plenty more - mine don't seem to decrease at all no matter how many blocks I make.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyable post today. Love the purse and the blue quilt. Your FW mat is great. Perhaps I ought to try that idea. Happy Friday.
ReplyDeleteYour little mats are just too cute!
ReplyDeleteThat blue string quilt is really something! I love it when a quilter uses such a simple pattern with such stunning effect.
