Madrona Road Challenge almost complete!

I finished quilting it today! Yay! Now I just need to bind it. I've been crazy busy around here because my husband is running for city councilman and I've been helping him with his campaign. Making it almost impossible to actually sew anything around here. But I wanted to share my progress thus far. The binding will be put on this week because I have to take it to my guild meeting. What do you think?

Decluttering my life

I have been pretty busy these past few weeks. I've been quilting and sewing but mostly I have been taking care if my baby and IGing like mad! I came across the hashtag 40bags40days and I just can't stop myself! In 5 days I have purged 4 bags and 1 box of books. Closets are being cleaned out and even my pantry wasn't safe! This is only the beginning.

Scrappy Trip Around the World

This month was a fun one.  I decided I just had to jump on the band wagon for the Scrappy Trip Around the World along. #scrappytripalong on IG.  I had (and still have) so many scraps and random fabrics that this quilt was an obvious project to embark on.  I really love how it turned out and will be making another one soon. It's now in que to be quilted along with 4 other quilts of mine that I'm finally getting around to doing. I really have been a slacker when it comes to my own projects....then again, I can always blame it on the baby! HAHA...actually that's mostly true. 

I will post when I have it quilted and complete. Until then, I'm working on my Madrona Road Challenge for my LVMQG!! Can't wait to show you!

My Greatest Joy!

Yesterday we had a family photo shoot and I am in love with the sneak peek I was given by Sharee Jones our photographer!

I just had to share this picture of my handsome boys! I love them all so much and each one makes up a unique part of our family! 

Happy Sunday!

 

BQ3 Quilts

BQ3 Butterflies

BQ3 Space

This December I was hired to make these two beautiful quilts for my friends grandchildren. I picked the BQ3 pattern because it was fun and you could lay it out in so many ways! These two were the same pattern but I laid them out differently so that the kids wouldn't feel they had the same quilt. They were so fun to do and it was down to the wire in the end because of how crazy December had been.

In my haste to get these sent to her, I forgot to take pictures of them all bound and completed. Don't you think they turned out pretty cool? I may have to make more with this pattern.

Thankfully, both kids LOVED their quilts! Phew....a job well done.

Next up on my agenda...scrapy trip around the world! What about you?
