For Baby Harry!







 They say that babies need stimulating colors.
I think this will give Harry allot to look at!



 Many times I prefer colors that are not so traditional.
I think that is covered here. 
That is lime green on the back !




 I attached a hanging sleeve if they want to hang it too.





This month has been extremely busy but I have been able to complete

What Caught My Eye!




"Photos Thru My Lens"
Sunset In The Summer-North Wildwood, NJ


"5 Things That Caught My Eye"
  • Don't you love useless information! Here is one of those things that I never even gave it a thought. Someday this will come in handy to know!
  • Why is it that whenever you start cutting back on calories , a recipe shows up that is wonderfully sinful! Yeap I have made it!!
  • Great information on cleaning your bobbin case.  There is a video!
  • I will admit it--I enjoy the binding process however I am not a fan of attaching a quilt sleeve. I have now done this technique to speed up the process but mainly to get a nice straight sleeve. It works!

They Are Coming!


Our friend Natalie in the Jersey Shore Modern Quilt Guild is expecting twins any day now!
At our last guild meeting there was a shower. 












So I jumped on the band wagon and made 2 of the "One Hour" baskets by Kelby Sews.
The pattern is free, fun & fast!



I reversed the inside and outside fabrics and keeping the handles the same.
Then stuffed the baskets with diapers and bum care accessories.

The ideas are endless for this project. 
I will be doing this again.

Slow Moving Sunday!


The trees and flowers are blooming which is wonderful  
however my sinus headache is pounding.
So today I doodled on my Ipad.
Don't you just love the pencil stylus!

 I take photos of all my customers quilts and play with different styles of quilting ideas!
Then I save them to a file so I can pick and choose what I like best.
I am no Picasso but it sure does help with creative ideas!  


I did get Harry's name on his baby quilt and started the binding,
 but just do not feel like being at the machine today. So that is not done.


And here is tonight's handy fun---maybe?
Believe it or not this piece is slowly coming together.


As my mother says
--you won't know a good day if you didn't have these kinds of days!
