I received another super stupendous swap box for July's ALFALC from my Flickr twin, Amy. So much fabric and goodies I could hardly stand it! She knows me so well. I loved EVERYTHING! Hopefully she'll get her box Monday and love it half as much!
I finished my Christmas bee blocks early this month! I was determined to conquer the pinwheel so I did a little blog studying over at KarrieLyne's blog. Here are the results:
And in the interest of keeping it real (and to make other messy quilters feel a bit better), here is the current state of my sewing area:
It's driving me crazy and I think it's time for a major cleaning! Also, I hate sewing in this dark cave! I call it the murder cave because of the blood red walls (we didn't paint it). It's technically our dining room, but how often do you really use a dining room? :) ha ha!
I've also gone hexi-crazy! After receiving the wonderful sewing machine cover made with hexies and my own hexi kit, I've decided to make my Modern Swap partner a hexi sewing machine cover too! I hope she'll like it!
And for all the grandmas and Daddy who read this, here are some pictures of the kids:
Hee hee...are you addicted to pinwheels like me now? ;) The blocks are beautiful!!
