We have been having a whole lot of weather
here at my house!
I even got a "snow day" off from work.
The roads were just too dangerous...
I got the call
just as I was walking out the front door so
I was very happy that I didn't have to
go out in this!
So... snow day... translates into
SEW day!
But before I show you what I have been up to
Here is our newest addition to the family...
her name is Kinsley Elaina
Wasn't it just a week or two ago that I showed a
sofa filled with our other gran littles?
Kinsley is #6 and she is just 2 months younger
than Killian who was born 2 months ago today.
This is just staggering to me!
So many little blessings!
So now, I can pause a little and show
the fun little project I started.
This is the beginnings of Flower Patch by
I was going to make it out of Olive's Flower Market
but I decided to dive into my stash...
I am anxious to make some progress on this...
but since just one project isn't enough
entertainment I
thought I would also keep a promise to myself
and start an embroidery project.
I am barely a beginner so this will be a good place to
get my bearings!
I'm using Lori Holt's
Stitch Fun Embroidery Sampler.
What is a great bonus is that Lori has a 4 part
you Tube video series on how to embroider
using this pattern.
Yeah!
So... That layer cake of Olive's Flower Market that I
didn't use for my other project got re-assigned.
The Thimble Blossoms Sampler Quilt Along that
was hosted by Sew Lux last year was
a sew along that I had wanted to participate in but
I just couldn't seem to fit it in.
And I just happen to have the patterns that they used in the
TB Sampler!
So, thank goodness for snow days... because I got to
play in my sewing room after being absent from
there for the past few weeks!
I'm on a roll now!
8 friends stopped by to chat:
