Monday Fun-Day!!

scrap fleece makes for an awesome dog bed and free stuffing of scrap batting,tiny fabric pieces,and 2 old pillows (snatched the stuffing)
Some raw edged applique with some perle cotton variegated thread

cleared the fleece out and so naturally I had to go get some more pretties ---wouldn't you?

I bought the DS dots in red/pink and green/blue and then after seeing her prints numerous times in blogworld I decided to go get these 2 as well in 1/2 yd cuts.  (I saw the turquoise print too the other day and now OF COURSE what will I be doing *I am innocent.* he,he I think:/)

Alexander Henry CALLED my name too:)  Hence the apple print, cherry blossoms and dots--NEVER have enough dots.  



Brian's baseball quilt is coming along and  I have cut 6" strips for a border as I type here.  I am thrilled with the simplicity so far and the manly effect of the Kona Marine.  Off to sew it on!

Just look at HER now!

Organic swirls

The thread was getting caught in that little plastic piece inside the "C" here.  I slowed down some on my loops,but it was still doing it toward the end:/  Why oh why?  (anyone)


random little hearts

"Strung Along" using this pattern

the stash has been broken (at least in my plastic bins!)  3 hearts are enclosed in this top

Assitant #2 Handsome
They insisted;)

Patience and persistence paid off !!!  I cannot believe how quickly she came together, even with all the holdups:)

Thanks to Sarah @ Confessions of a Fabric Addict!

Happy Mother's Day Ladies!!!
