Shortnsweet and I have made contact. Having fun, poor thing just moved so her sewing room is in a disarray at this time. That is ok. we have a few months to get things done.

Here is my new baby and she now sits at my feet while am sewing.

QuilterMomma what an adorable little puppy - and sew smart as well.

Precious baby, QuilterMomma! SO cute.

since i have to wait til payday to get the fabric for this quilt, i decided to go through scraps for a quilt top for the church group. cut 8",5" and 3" blocks for HSTs today. tomorrow i will cut some 3" white blocks and start sewing blocks together. we meet 2nd wednesday of the month to layer and tie knot the tops so have a little time to finish it

Well, roseirish48...I decided to nix the flannel idea. I'm afraid to combine textures like that. I found something I hope will work in it's place. Flannel shrinkage was a huge concern even tho I planned on pre-washing. I couldn't change my fabric order, but they have an excellent return policy and said I could return it for credit or trade. That surprised me since it was cut yardage. LOVE Connecting Threads! Gonna go see how the replacement fabric looks in EQ7.

Oh man now I want a puppy

I was just telling the dh that the puppy was ADORABLE. however that said they have to be.. ah no NOT MY SHOES oh oh not on the carpet! uh no puppies for brat any longer. The last puppy took the last need to have one. Golden gorgeous dog, goofy dog, 6 months to house train with constant full time care watching and encouraging her. She just got to happy and too busy and well instantly forgot.. no nope no. If I ever get a dog again it will be an unadoptable senior from the shelter. The kind that has no business being in a shelter. (but love those puppy photos so send away Beth we all love to admire them! and yours is super cute!).

I think snow today? maybe.. probably. It doesn't bug me much staying inside all day long. Off to quilt on a round robin. I have my blocks picked out for Tam Moo. Well some of them. I have to make a lot more. I am going to go as per her wishes with more red/white than red white green for Christmas. Tammy, have to put a bit of green in it is CHRISTMAS :) but not too much ok? white sashing, maybe a red frame up.. or ribbon! how about a red ribbon? all around the Christmas blocks think that would look smashing..

Ok Brat put that Christmas green in there too...I cannot wait to see what you create...I know it will be beautiful.

too kind my dear I have seen your work and it is pretty nice too!

I have two days to finish a round robin which will happen :) and then I will start on yours on Sunday.. I think with the addition of a few fun fabrics it is going to be quiet sweet :) and it will take some time so I had best get on it quick as a cricket! Sundays and MOndays are my best quilting days.. no clinic all that free time! yahoooo!

EMC1118 I forgot to ask do you mind me posting ideas? Or if I post as I sew? I am ok with posting pictures.
