Welcome to Tuesday night and my last blog post of the day…just trying to catch up.  Not much progress but wanted to share with you all anyway… 2012 8-inch Sampler Quilt from all different Quilt Along’s, Block’s of the Months, and my Own Ideas! I have two of every block made for the Blogger’s BOM […]

I’m not sure if anyone has noticed but I now have blog sponsors!  Yeah! It’s such an exciting step in my blogging life.  Now I can also justify all the time I spend on my computer to my husband (or at least some of the time…)   Anyway, a couple of weeks ago I shared […]

The ‘sweet’ part of my weekend was my girls in their ballet recital.  They were so cute and adorable and did such a good job.  AND they were very well behaved considering how long of a day Saturday was.  I have a bunch of pictures to show you so I’ll get right to it!A friend […]

I have talked about this on my social websites but I have yet to post a picture.  On March 30th I got my first quilting tattoo.  I’d been drawing on my wrist for YEARS and I finally decided to go for it! Braided Hand-dyed Memory Wire Bracelet Yup – I got a spool of thread […]

To see more about how I created the middle of this quilt check out my first POST.  It was time for round 2 of this gorgeous Celebration Quilt that we’re making at the 2012 Quilts By Barb Retreat Get Away Weekend.  Initially I thought I would make my stars in this turquoise and make the […]

I went over where I learned about English Paper Piecing on my post for the Hexagon Forest Sashing Tutorial.  These are even easier since you don’t even sew the hexagons together! It’s free to sign up to be a Craftsy Member and the Block of the Month Program is also free.  I’m going to recommend […]
