I've been Stitching!

It's amazing what you can accomplish when there's no internet to distract you!

I finished my Lizzie Kate design for Habitat for Humanity...

Lizzie Kate Home is Where our Story Begins

I got Sweet Treats up to date...

Sweet Treats - four blocks finished!

Ice Cream - Sweet Treats block #4 finished.

And I decided to work on "Moire" the freebie by Pelin Tezer (using my hand-dyed pink fabric)...

Moire Again

I've actually got a lot more stitched on it now because I worked on it all day yesterday. I will try to post a new picture tomorrow.

I also got an order from Shepherd's Bush yesterday! I was so surprised to get it so fast. I ordered it just a few days ago.

My Shepherd's Bush order

I ordered their 2008 Fob kit and a Snap Wrap! I don't use Q-Snaps that often, but I think these are so cute. I thought I would give it a try!

I'm sitting outside the library again. I tried Dunkin Donuts, but I couldn't pick up their signal. Well, I'd better go. I have to pick my boys from my mom's new house. I let them stay the night there last night. Write later!

  6. I love your finish.
    I started Sweet Treats yesterday and I really enjoy seeing yours. Now I just need to keep stitching on my piece.
    I love that fob and the Snap Wrap.
    And now I wanna start Moire.
    You really inspire me and I LOVE your blog.

  7. Oh I have to get some of those Snap Wraps! I have a couple LARGE projects with excess fabric on the edges that could benefit from being contained in a Snap Wrap. If I were more proficient with the sewing machine, I could probably make them for myself...but I'm afraid of what I might come up with! LOL

  15. Love all the stitching you've been doing lately! It still amazes me how much you get done with everything else happening in your life. Sweet Treats is a fave of mine, the ice cream looks good enough to eat! That SB stash is good too. I like seeing what new stash other people get - you know how much I love a bit of stash.;)
