Nancia, I'm talking about my home decor project. I'm actually just modifying a quilt pattern to make your runner. I think you're going to be a lil surprised when you see it though! I just hope it's not too whimsy for you!

Elisabrat, as I've said before, if you don't want to wait, you ship at your own risk, but that's your prerogative.

hello dont you need that PO it looks like its absolutely delicious so I will take good care of it. Honest!

Dustysmom maybe I have an idea! ok I always have an idea. re the owl bom perhaps we can chat about that???

I found a bom I am dying to try. its called Something to crow about. My issue is its pretty simple when you look at it. Online its like 25.00 kit per month for 13 months. Not the end of the world some have a sign up ridiculous and not paying 25.00 more to sign my name up. Ok found a store that has it for 16.95 plus shipping so like 20.00 less still but I think it can be done on my own. think is the key word. I have tons of scraps heck my supply is tons of scraps. I have pattern central here with quilterscache and 501 quilt patterns book so I am positive its all in there. its figuring out sizing and sashing distance and all.. is it worth it having to do all the searching for it all or should I just bite that huge bullet and go for it? that is huge for me that is fabric money for the MONTH or its postage for sending these goodies out. I found the center panels that are in each block on ebay for 14.00 shipped. so what to do what to do.. like I need another project. I have projects up the .. pile on the table thats where I have them.

I hope everyone heads on into a lovely weekend coming up. Happy Valentines Day to all of you. I just made some fresh from the box german chocolate cupcakes with that coconut frosting.. and they are disappearing off my plate as I type. I wonder how many he will eat before he is too full for dinner? too many. I would be that out of 16 there will be only half by the morning. and I wont eat one.

sikesjj, it looks like it's fairly easy blocks, but with lots of appliqued pieces too. Only the first block is up so far. Runs through August, 2014.

I spent some time last night "cutting up" with Dusty....

So, here's a teaser for half my project anyway. (Yes, the papers under the fabrics have all my calculating on them for each fabric!) The stitching will begin this weekend....or maybe I should finish Nancia's runner first, lol. Nancia, whatcha think?

Nancia, yours is neither. It's just fun! OK, since you're going to be last minute too, I'm getting busy over here for a bit. I was supposed to get some more work done this weekend, but we'll see. I may be sewing the above piles of fabric all weekend
