It's been a while since I have last posted and I do have something to show for it. This is just a sneek peek of one of my projects. It's another baby quilt that I contemplated restarting because I was not happy with it at first. I'm so glad I gave it another chance because I love it! Hopefully I will be back soon as show you my progress. Miracles and blessings!</div>

My sewing mojo leaves me frequently as of late. So to try and get it back I figured i would make something kinda easy, baskets. I found a fabric basket tutorial somewhere in internet land and I and gave it a try. I can never follow directions so I did some improvising. Those puppies came out just fine for me and they will definitely go in my new sewing space whenever it's finished. Here is a little eye candy. Hopefully I will be sewing soon and not just hanging out on Pinterest. Miracles and blessing!<br />

Sooooo, I'm not one for making resolutions. I do try to improve myself and with that being said, I have just some simple things I want to achieve. I want to do more of what I love - spend more time with family; journal more about myself for my daughter; sew a whole lot more; blog more like myself and not what I think sounds good; live a happier, healthier life.<br />
<br />
A big part of making me happy is my sewing. I NEED to create something every day. It is not an option for me. I must stay organized and focused and not jump all over the place with my hobbies. Really, how much crafting can you squeeze in one day?<br />
<br />
Sometime ago I mentioned that I was getting a shed that was going to be my future sewing studio. I am happy to say that she is here, yayyyyyyyy! Now begins the struggle of getting it finished and deciding on how I want to organize/decorate. Did I mention that I am so indecisive? I think that I have changed my mind on the color scheme at least 5 times. I am so excited and cannot wait to get in there and start stitchin it up lolololol!<br />
<br />
Here is a frontal view, a view of the back wall and a side view of my studio (still deciding on what to call her).<br />

I am so geeked I cant even begin to tell you guys how bad and how long I wanted this little space for myself. Now that it's here I almost want to just go in there everyday and just dream.<br />
<br />
Well as you can see still no sewing but at least it's something new. Thanks for stopping by and I wish you miracles and blessings.<br />

Still not a lot of quilty business going on here but there has been plenty of Christmas activities to keep me busy. I realize I have OCD, Obsessive Christmas Disorder. I LOVE all things Christmas! With that being said, my daughter and I hosted our first cookie exchange party. I am happy to say that this will be an annual event. This party was way more fun than I ever thought it could be. I went bonkers with decorating, game planning, and just making sure that the little ladies would have a fun filled evening. The excitement in my little one's face was absolutely priceless. Next year it will definitely be bigger and better. Well I will leave you guys with a few pics and wish you the very merriest of Christmas. <br />

WOW, time has really flown by. I can't believe that so many months have passed and I haven't blogged anything. Well you can see by the lack of pictures that that purse did not get punched out like I thought it would. That thing was a real booger! However, I will not be defeated! I will complete that damn thing, lol! I have had a few other sewing mishaps but they were really too horrid to share. On the quilting front, I have some exciting news to share. Next week my quilt studio is suppose to arrive and hubby will begin getting it ready for me. I can't even begin to tell you how excited I am. We have been looking for months and finally decided on one from Classic Buildings. I could not find an actual picture of what mine will look like but I found one that is sort of close.<br />

My projects are progressing along but I've had a few road bumps. First I could not find the hardware for my purses. After 3 trips to Hancock Fabrics and Joanne's, I improvised. The bag called for a 10mm magnetic snap and I have yet to find one, who knew they were so hard to find. However, I did not mind going to the stores, I had an actual emergency LOL. I did complete the shirt, yeah! I just have to finish the hem, but it's actually something I can wear in public! Here is a preview and hopefully I will have finished pics of the purses soon. Happy quilting and sewing!<br />

Here comes the Spiderman!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
My daughter and I recently saw the new Spiderman movie and looooooved it. I am a huge Marvel Comics fan and since I have no new projects on the horizon I decided to make both of us a purse in this cool Spidey fabric I recently found and a LQS. The Madison Wallet Bag by <a href="http://www.sewserendipity.com/" target="_blank">Serendipity Studios </a>is gorgeous. I have been dying to make this bag since I got it in Paducah and the AQS show. I've never made any purses and this one looks simple enough. I figure I can punch a few of these out this weekend. <br />

So, I had delusions of making that fabulous Vogue shirt. Ah no, it did not turn out so well. I have come to realize that as a newbie in fashion sewing, I will have tons of epic fails. However, I am committed to making nice clothes for myself. I will not give up. So with all that being said, I have no new item to share. I have embarked upon another journey but I have learned so much in the sewing world. Another blogger has inspired me to try and make Butterick 5645. I am making the little leopard print number in a solid green knit. It is such a cute little number and I think if all goes well, I'll make a few of these as I am lacking summer tops. Here is a little inspiration until we meet again. Happy sewing!<br />

Nothing new is going on in my sewing world, at least as far making something is concerned. I think I work best when I have a deadline LOL. I may not have sewn anything but I have done a LOT of fashion pattern and fabric shopping. Since we last talked I went to Paducah, KY for the annual AQS trip. I really didn't purchase many quilting items there but I certainly made up for it once I got home. Thanks to <a href="http://www.mimigstyle.com/" target="_blank">http://www.mimigstyle.com/</a> I have sooooo many clothes I want to try and make. I never thought that I would delve in fashion sewing but I think all types of sewing eventually spill over into each other. I have ordered lots of fabric but I think my fear of messing up has halted my surge into fashion sewing. However, I have started one top that I am hoping will not be a dud. I plan on getting the final stitching and hems completed before this weekend. I hope there will be a finished and wearable top somewhere in the near future. Here is the inspiration piece from h<a href="http://thenaturalfashionista.com/" target="_blank">ttp://thenaturalfashionista.com/</a>as well as the pattern and my attempted product. Thanks for stopping by and have a sew wonderful day!<br />

I can't believe a whole month has gone by and I have not blogged anything. I have somehow lost my sewing mojo and then found it again in time to finish that little baby quilt. I can honestly say that I fall in love with each project. This little baby quilt (gotta start coming up with names for my projects) has really been fun. There were a few bumps along the way but all ended up well. The next time I mark a project for quilting, I'll make sure to test the product on scrap fabric first (duh). I used a yellow chalk liner and had really hard timing getting that darn chalk off. All ended well but I was really scared it would not come out of that white fabric. I even made a bag to store the quilt in and remembered to make a quilt label before I was finished with the entire quilt. Enjoy and thanks for taking a peek into my small world, Happy quilting!<br />

Little baby quilts are always so much fun for me. They are a quick and gratifying finish! I have been working on this one for a while now and she is almost done. The hardest part for me is always deciding how I'm going to actually quilt the project and what color thread to use. I spend time planning and deciding fabrics to use so I just don't want to pick just any thread. I must say I can see my improvement in my quilting with each project finished. It's usually lack of confidence in myself that holds be back from doing a particular project. However, I am tackling new challenges within myself and it see a vast improvement. I can only get better. This quilt brought about new challenges with quilting because I wanted something that would make the quilt pop. After debating pebbling, stippling and I cant even remember what else, I decided to go with straight line quilting throughout and stippling in the borders. Here is a little sneak peek. Thanks for visiting and as always I would love to hear from you. Happy quilting!<br />

Yes, I have a new project in the works. I promise it had to be done! Another coworker is having an addition to the family. Sometime this spring, his family will welcome a precious baby girl. So when he asked for a quilt I jumped at the opportunity to make anything with pink and polka dots. It is going to be a chevron quilt with flowers. I don't remember where I saw it online, but I just had to make one myself.</div>

2013 has been a wild ride for me. I finally had a major surgery which was long overdue. Now that I'm done with it I wondered what took me so long. Finally feeling healthy after a long haul. The other big milestone was starting this blog. I have taken what I feel is a major step regarding my craft, but one that was long overdue. I feel so truly blessed to have people who are like-minded and are interested in what I'm doing. I am new to this blog thing but I plan to have a lot more finished projects. Thanks for sharing in my ramblings and enjoy a blessed and safe new year!</div>

As promised, here is the Christmas skirt I finished. I absolutely love it too. I will probably do things a little different on my next one. It was a little difficult sewing over all those gathers. I will definitely have to make a few more to go under our other trees.<br />

I love this time of the year. The weather is getting colder and my favorite holiday is right around the corner. There is just no other season better than Christmas! So with that being said, this was the perfect time to begin another project. We needed a new Christmas tree skirt. <a href="http://prudentbaby.com/2010/12/prudent-home/ruffled-tree-skirt-2/" target="_blank">Pretty Prudent </a>had a tutorial on a beautiful, ruffly (is that a word?) one. I did things a little different. There was no way I was going to manually do all that gathering. I got out my ruffle foot, some leftover fabrics from previous projects and got to work. I don't know what size my strips ended up, but I did have to add 1 extra strip to row 5 and 2 strips to row 6. Once I made all my gathers and formed each row of strips, I found it easier to pin them to the felt. I just didn't trust myself. I'll let you guys know in a few days how it all turns out. Happy quilting!<br />

So happy to have another WIP completed. Maybe I will get that stack of quilts down after all. I must say the binding was sort of a beast to finish. I don't know what I was thinking. Using 2 layers of batting AND a flannel backing, geesh! Oh well, you live and you learn. However, I am very happy with the end result and I think baby Kyrin will love this quilt. Here are a few finished shots, even one with my little one pretending to be asleep. Love that crazy kid!<br />

I 'm singing another one bites the dust! Yes, I have finished another quilt. Trying to push through and finish some of those quilts I showed months ago. I am about to do the binding, yeah me! It is a cute little number featuring embroidered animals and it is for my great nephew Kyrin. I just love how this little gem turned out. This is such a snuggly and warm quilt. I used 2 layers of warm and natural batting and flannel backing. It will definitely be very warm and toasty.<br />

I continue to make slow progress on my projects, but progress is progress right? Remember the little Tiana quilt? She is all set for the binding so I thought I would give a peek at where I am with it. I am absolutely loving the binding fabric. It is the bluey square print fabric. However, I haven't decided if I will do a bias binding or if I'll do straight grain. Sorry for the dark pics but the lighting in my sewing room is not the greatest. Enjoy and happy quilting!<br />

Lately I seem to have lost my quilting mojo. Even though I have numerous projects in the works, I just can't seem to find the inspiration to sit in front of my machine. I have acquired an interest in apparel sewing and taken advantage of some recent sales. My local Joanne's and Hancock's Fabrics have had various patterns on sale and needless to say, I have picked up a ton. Thanks to <a href="http://www.mimigstyle.com/" target="_blank">Mimi G</a>, I really am going to make an honest effort and try to make some decent clothing! Hopefully I will begin to feel the urge to sew and have something to show you guys soon.<br />
Happy quilting and sewing!</div>

I have been MIA for awhile, but have been trying to squeeze in some sewing into my hectic life. I have been having difficulty with the dresses I have been trying to make for my little one. That adorable pink tulle dress gave me the blues! I was so frustrated with all that tulle. After stitching it and trying to readjust the lining and get everything measured and hemmed correctly, I had to rip out all those stitches and start the skirt portion over, huge bummer. So like any normal person, I jumped to another project (I can't be the only one who does that). I started another dress that was supposed to be for my sister-in-law's anniversary party. Yeah I said suppose, because I didn't finish that either. I was in a hurry and put the lining on before the tulle skirt. Nonetheless, I'm almost finished with it now. Just gotta find some white, satin ribbon and a silver flower. Finally something will be finished yeah! <br />
<br />
Happy quilting and sewing!<br />

WOW! It has been over a month since I have posted last. My how time flies. I have so many irons in the fire and I have not come up for air yet. Not a lot of quilting or sewing going on here because of work (boo) and family stuff (yeah). We have had 1 family member being picked in the first round of the NFL draft (I'M a Jets fan now), 3 weddings, a college graduation, and a going away party. My oldest nephew has left for the Navy. Wow, I don't think I've ever had this much going on at one time before. HOWEVER, I have had something very exciting happen to me in these last few weeks. I finally bought a new toy, I got a new Bernina quilt frame (YEAH). I'm sooooo excited. Now we are looking for a shed to transform into my quilt studio.<br />
Here is a picture of my cousin who got drafted by the Jets. Looking forward to seeing him play. He is a beast on the field. So happy that all of his hard work has paid off.<br />

Wow! It has been so long since my last post. I have had so many things going on but very little time for quilting. However, I have managed to almost complete the little tiana quilt I have been working on. If I must say so myself, it is sooooo adorable. I was trying to add some pink in there somewhere, but she just kept screaming green, green, green! It is from the movie Princess and the Frog.<br />
I think she turned out cute anyway. The backing i'm using is a princess and the frog fabric I got from my hometown Hancocks. It is just perfect. It was so hard to not embellish this little quilt. I decided to add a crystal headband instead of a crown. And a princess must have her jewels right. So I also added Swarovski crystals as her jewelry. Love! I almost don't want to give this baby away. My daughter has requested a princess quilt of all the princesses. Got even more work to do on top of all my other quilty endeavors. I don't think I would have it any other way. Happy quilting<br />

I'm baaaaaaack. I am amazed every year I make the trek to Paducah, Kentucky for the annual quilt show. The workmanship is just ridiculous. These people are so talented. I don't know how they come up with some of these ideas or where they find the time. Most of these quilts I would never make, but I am just wowed by their beauty. I thought I would share some of my favorites.</div>

This was my absolute favorite in the entire show. I just love whimsical quilts. This quilt is by</div>
Dominique Ehrmann who documents her 25 years as a baker and chocolate maker. You can definitely add quiltmaker to this list. This girl is oober talented. The details were crazy. There was 3d shoes, chef hat and bake shop! Gotta love this. Have to definitely see it in person because my pics don't do it any justice. Looooooooooooove!<br />

I have made progress on both projects i'm working on but I don't have pics of the little dress. Had a difficult time choosing buttons and getting the lining to cooperate. I will have it done by next week. I do however have some progress to report on the little tiana quilt. It is gonna be soooo cute (if I must say so myself). Still deciding on a background but here's a sneak peek. Will be back next week with info from my mini quilt trip. I'm going to Paducah, Kentucky for the AQS quilt show. Happy quilting!<br />
