So much that my bed quilt is on hiatus for the time being:( Ah well sometimes sacrifices need to be made. Take a deep breath and move forward. Therefore,my bed quilt has been sitting on the recliner for about 3 weeks. Somehow.....don't have a clue.....maybe some blonde kid I live with perhaps...not sure though got some new stains on it. Daaayyyy----goneit!!! Oxiclean is on the shopping list. So be it.
By the time we arrived home from a birthday party tonight it was getting dark out. I really wanted to take pics of some newly finished projects for the Art Fest. I got a couple of the banner I made yesterday. Took me all day and winged the entire thing.
Ideas were flowing everywhere!
Each letter is interfaced and blanket stitched. I used the FMQ foot on the flowers for the dotted "i."
This was the perfect project to practice a decorative stitch. The "s" was hard,both of those buggers. I got through it though and I think it looks pretty darn good!

Before this little project, I took about a week and 1/2 and made 12 Wallets. I didn't think I could do it,but I proved myself wrong! Pics of those soon!
Potholders were also along for the ride! I took some: KJR By Denyse Schmidt and Dream On By Urban Chiks. These were fun and easy peasy.
I also cut out some business cards and finished up some WIP potholder sets and added my label. Last minute touch ups and maybe. maybe. another something...something for my craft booth:)
I even got a little binding in for my bed quilt tonight in Kona Bahama Blue and another Kona blue as well:) I want that quilt on my bed badly!
These fabrics showed up at my doorstep a couple weeks ago. Summersville is definitely, definitely a mind blower!!!
I also got some Kona White for my Sliced Apples QAL quilt. Yes. I have to find time to do that too. After my bed quilt and before I make another Angry Bird for someone I know whose little voice sticks in my head;)
