snooze button...

on quilting lately.  I know shame on me, but there is just too much beauty outside to really sew lately.  I bet you thought I was going to say I hit the snooze button to sleep in. UHHH.......'Fraid not.  I know bummer:(

see that cutie{if you click on him you can see his sneaky face}
God's art is everywhere we look!

Mommy I'm gonna climb it-- k??


Love this pic!!!
 Lately when we pray at night he likes to thank God for trees:)



OK now for a Drum roll please.............................................................................................................................





See I was teasing I did get some things done!!  Finished for the tree at Christmas.  Makes me smile every time I look at it!  The bias binding was a little tricky as I have never attempted that kind before,but it worked!!

I got to play with lots of the new Ruby line by Bonnie and Camille---adore every piece in that line btw:):)  The bows are some gingham ribbon I had lying around.  I am a bit happy to be displaying this under my Christmas tree this year!!!  I finally made one.  I have been talking about it forever---so mentally I am checking that off my "to sew" list;)


I also finished my Dead Simple Quilt as well.  I am calling her Iris {stole it from my friend,Paulette over at The Way I Sew It,forgive me Paulette!}


simple,but so fabulous!!  The Central Park print makes me smile again and again:)


She is in the shop all warmed up and crinkly from the dryer!   I got to sew on a new label too---eeek:) from momiemadeit on Etsy---she is fantastic!!!



Stay warm under those hand made quilts and Happy Veteran's Day!!!!!
