Actually, still here


Just to prove it, I sewed something. A quick cheater quilt kit from JoAnn fabric, for a coworker who is having her baby via c-section tomorrow. She is four weeks "ahead" of me so I've been using her as a benchmark. Now what will I do? :)


I used the decorative stitch on my machine to tack down the first border (brown cord/bandanna print). No batting as this is more of a receiving blanket size.

Next in the sewing pile...um, lots of stuff. A lap quilt using the Strawberry Fields fabric, and a baby quilt using a (I hope) quick kit from Connecting Threads- also lots of mending that I have been putting off. This cooler weather is so nice. I actually don't mind moving!

Hey! You have not posted for even longer than I have not posted, all summer! I sewed a button hole last night! But I still haven't blogged about it. Hang in there!

We've missed you!! Cute quilt. Wish I was having a baby only so I could get a cute quilt, not because having a baby would be something I could handle, lol.
