Gypsy Dance Finished



My Gypsy Dance quilt is all finished up.  I quilted it with echoing boxes inside the lattice design of the quilt.  I wanted to keep it simple, but to amplify the pattern that Bree over at Distant Pickles designed.

Gypsy Dance



I finished my Gypsy Dance quilt top.  My sewing machine and I didn't get along so well at the beginning, but after some practice we were getting along a lot better.   I volunteered to do a pattern test for Bree over at Distant Pickles. (My first time to test a pattern.)

W.I.P. - Gypsies and Legos

Last week was sooo busy, the kids had stuff going on each day and we never seemed to stop going.  Thank goodness this week is a bit on the slower side where we can all sit back and enjoy the summer days.  I started another quilt this week.  I volunteered to do a pattern test for Bree over at Distant Pickles. (My first time to test a pattern.)

July Fresh Sewing Day!

Is it already July 1st?  I know everyone says that, but really the summer months go by soooo fast.  I guess it is the age old saying, "Time flies when your having fun."  I had a week of my hubby being on vacation and we were out and about, going to birthday parties, remodling laundry areas, and other assorted project.   Here is a mosaic of all my sewing and crocheting finishes for June.

 


I finished my very first quilt in June (Yes, I had to throw in another picture)





 and I had a tutorial for my bike pouch I designed for Sew Mama Sew!




Linking up to Lily's Quilts Fresh Sewing Day!

Camo Towels

Like a lot of fellas, my husband LOVES camo.  Our home would be painted camoflauge if I would let him paint it like that.  This week my hubby was searching the web and came across these towels.  Our bathroom is in the lodge theme and they would fit just right.
Then I looked at the price and said "No way, I can make them cheaper than that."  The hand towel was $11.99 and the bath towel was $24.99.  And this is my version....

W.I.P. Wednesday #6 - When Dresdens Attack

I have a confession.  I am addicted to making Dresdens.  I can't seem to get enough.  I dream about them.  I scheme about them.  They are in my every thought.  I finished two this week, both the same and both very different.  But alas I can only show you this one, I hear there is to be a Dresden Challenge coming up with prizes.  A little birdie told me at  Freshly Pieced.  I am quite excited since I can't get them out of my head.



I was going to send the other pillow off to the Sewing Shop this weekend, but I couldn't bare to see it leave.  I could decorate a whole room around the  two of them.  (Unless they are stolen in the night by a family member.)  My sis has an eye for the new one.  I might have to change the locks.


Found this great camo material for another one of my bags.  Too bad they are being left in the dust by the Attacking Dresdens!


W.I.P. - one messenger bag, two swim bags and two more Dresden pillows.
Accomplished - two Dresden pillows and one crocheted flower pillow.

Hopefully I can keep more of the Dresdens at bay next week!

Camo Fleece Baby Blanket

Well one more finish for the month of April.  I have a Baby Shower next week, so I have a few more things that I have to get finished before then.  Around my house, camo is the new black.  I am not as crazy about it as the rest of my family, but anything in this pink is pretty cute.  I had some left over and I thought this fleece would make a great little baby blanket.
