maybe you need to sit down with a cup of something warm some of your quilting books or magazines or watch how to piece an american quilt, or for Richer for Poorer with Tim Allen and Kirste Allie, that movie is a hoot. I get inspired that way, at least motivated. Or go to quilterscache.com and check out all the patterns they have. What about applique? You can get really creative with those. I will be interested to know what you decide on.

Well, I got the phone call today that the husband is coming home or supposed to be on Sunday, which leaves me part of tomorrow and some of Sunday to whip this place into shape, as the Boys get lax when Daddy's not home. :shock:
Still trying to find the new pics I took- I know it's on the computer somewhere. Now where in the world did I put that? :?

Yes, my "little" dog Bella has given her approval- she's great when it comes to helping out like that.... ;)
Tony came home on Sunday afternoon. He cut me 3 different sets of fabric for some baby quilts. I already sewed together one- the unisex flannel one I talked about. I will have to take a pic and show ya' all. Now, I have the neighbor having a baby, my daughter's friend, and the friend's sister. (Baby Noah is getting a sibling and a cousin!) :XD: 8-) 8-)

Are you making baby Noah a quilt? Enjoy your time with your hubby it's fun when they get involved with your projects. Mine will help me every now and then. We work together pretty well most of the time. Can't wait to see your projects.

I have to enjoy my time w/ Tony- I never know how long he'll be home for, except on his vacation and that's barring him being on a job somewhere before it. :evil:

Wow....what a portfolio of quilts! I have to admit though that the dinosaur quilt with that cute big smiling boy has to be my favorite. They all look great to me though and obviously it gives you a lot of pleasure to share your awesome talent with friends and family. Yup...that makes you a kindred spirit! :lol: Thanks for sharing them with us!
