All over blogland there are pictures of peoples projects or stashes using the ever popular Flea Market Fancy by Denyse Schmidt. I would post a photo of a project but I have only cut into a few of these pieces and put in only a few little projects none of which I have kept! I have no idea what I am going to use this for...probably a big ol' quilt for ME! I just started collecting this line in January....not bad eh? ;)

gift for Nissa




I made this quilt for my girlfriend Nissa's birthday...I think she liked it! :) I am going to make another one for a girlfriend's birthday in March :) and then I need to make one for myself because this was a hard one to give away!!!! I have another set of friends....4 of them.....might need to make this for a Mother's Day gift for each of them this year...not sure if I will have the time, energy or $$ to whip out that many for Christmas....we will see!

So here is the top for my doll quilt swap partner....after I started sewing the blocks together I realized how this looks more like a table runner...I hope my partner likes it...this was my first attempt at a "wonky" log cabin too...they are kinda fun....

family photo's

These are all pictures taken of my family on Sunday....my older brother was home for his 20th High School Reunion (ACK!! that means mine is in two years!?!?!?) and we decided to have some family pictures taken for my parents 40th anniversary coming up in February...a little early but we never do anything on time so why not be early instead of late this time, ha!! These are just a few of A LOT of pictures to go through....we are all very excited too....another baby is on the way....we are really hoping BOY, BOY, BOY but will be thrilled with a girl too....
