Sew Incredibly Crazy: September 2014

We went on an outing
to the Denver Botanic Garden.
They are currently displaying
some of Dale Chihuly glass
artwork amongst the beautiful
garden backdrop.

There was so much to see
between the gorgeous gardens
and the Chihuly glass that resembled nature.
Hope you enjoyed the
walk through the gardens.

Thanks for all your kind comments
on my See You projects!
and without further ado

Here are

Quilty Stitches Finish

I am happy to say that

I am all finished up with

my Quilty Stitches that

was going on at LMS.

It was only supposed to be 16 blocks

but I added the other four to

make it rectangular to fit in the

frame.

I hadn't cross-stitched in a few

years and I loved the simplicity

and well...

the Quiltiness of it. I just

couldn't help but to join in.

It has happily

found a wall to hang on

in my sewing room.

I had contemplated adding a little

fabric border around the edge,

but I am just not sure if

I will or not.

Any Suggestions?

See YOU In September (Seriously Already) and Giveaway

HELLO ALL!!

I have missed you

all sew much.

Thanks of course to Mdm Samm of Sew We Quilt

and Shari of Living with Purpose

I have been super busy

doing a little remodeling

throughout the WHOLE

summer.

I have painted 4 rooms

inside of our home and painted the complete outside

of our home also.

WAY to much Painting

and not enough sewing.

(I could have shown you pictures of that,

but they are not as fun)

And on top of it all

I was unable to use my

sewing machine,

but in the process I did

A LOT of hand stitching

First, I finished this cute little bib.

I decided to applique the flower

instead of stitching it.

Next, I did a little embroidery on

a Retro Apron. I think I

am going to have to add

a little ruffle to the edge.

But with only having a sewing

machine for the past week.

It had to wait for my last project.

My Sewing Room Quilt

It is in my very favorite colors.

I absolutely adore

RBD Gingham in Aqua.

Just beautiful.

And here is a little peek of my sewing room

I can't wait to have it all

put together and organized.

I do have my fabric

in order, so

very soon I can

get busy quilting away.

I hope you all

enjoyed my summer SEWING projects.

You can find all the embroidery patterns, apron,

and bib I used

at Colonial Patterns.

Around the World Blog Tour

Around The World Blog Tour

If you're new to my blog then welcome.

Over a week ago I was invited by Maria to join in the

Around the World Blog Tour,

I'm always on the look out for new blogs to follow

so thought this would be fun to take part in.

Maria is a very talented bag and a resent quilt maker.

She made her first quilt testing out my Watkins Star pattern
and well, she has been bitten by the quilting bug.

Go check her out Here.

As part of the blog tour we have to answer a few questions and
link to a blog for you to take a look at.
If you don't already know the lady
I will introduce you too, you will just love her.

So lets get started.

What am I Working On?

I have several projects in the works.

Some will be revealed in the

See You In September

Blog Hop that starts Sept 3.

Here are a few pics.

When Did You Start Blogging?

I started blogging in March of 2012.

I had entered a Moda Bake Shop contest

and received honorable mention for this bag.

I then decided that I

loved the quilty community.

I have met some of the most lovely

people blogging.

Why do I create what I do?

I honestly create for two different reasons.

I love a challenge.

First, hexie quilt ( all hand pieced and quilted)

August 2013

First, curved pieced quilt,

June 2014

You get the picture.

And the Second Reason is

I can't sit still.

I like to be busy busy busy.

What do I hope to achieve in the near future?

I would love to write a few

more patterns,

if time allows. I have

one completed.

http://www.craftsy.com/user/987215/pattern-store

And another that is

being tested.

And I love sharing what I am

working on with all of you. :)

Now that you've read a bit about me I'd like to introduce you to one talented lady.

Joan of Moosestache Quilting, she is very talented.

I love her witty sense of humor and her contagious creativity.

She was one of the first ladies I began following

when I started my blog

and I always enjoy stopping over at her Moose haven.
