Graduation....

This is our oldest son Lucas. He just graduated 8th grade. I also have his little sister that wanted to wear his cap and gown too in these pictures.  Mary-Grace has a while to go before graduating. She's only 3. Hard to believe that Lucas is 13 now and going to be a Freshman.  

Chemo Caps made by me.

I was ask to make some chemo caps for a friend for a lady that she works with. I was very happy to do it for her. She gave me money to go shopping to pick out the fabric for this lady. I tried to pick out a variety of fabric so she would have a selection of things to wear. I am making four for her and here are the first 2.  I sewed them both on the Singer 99K you see in the picture. I call her Baby.  ;-)

Finished Baby Quilt

Here's the baby quilt that I made for my cousin and his wife for their new baby. I had originally planned to applique the baby's name on it. They changed the name so I am glad that I found out before doing so.  This was the softest quilt ever. I just loved it. I hope they enjoy it too.  :)  I worked on this off and on for quite a while.

My label was made by a lady that does a fabulous job!  They are so much nicer than any little chinsy label you could get at Wal-Mart. These things are big too.

This is her blog: http://threadsgaloresewmuchmore.blogspot.com/  Here's a link of some of the other labels that I got from her. I put a quarter by them so that you could see the size of the labels.  http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-102296-1.htm

It's been a while since my last post.

Block for the Monthly Block Swap that I do.

Another block for the swap.

Our little girl is growing up. She's 3 now and rides a big girl bike.

She saw a little girl in the grocery store and wanted braids in her hair too. =)

It's been a while since I've put anything on my blog. It has been neglected for sure. I need to make sure I start blogging more again. With working and home I've just had a lot going on. It seems like there just isn't enough time in the day.  I'm sure I'm not the only one that feels this way. You go to work, come home rush to make dinner, now I'm getting my husband off to work then time for bed for the kids. Get them all bathed and in the bed, whew. I'm just spent. 

I have been trying to paint and declutter our house. My sweet Dad came over and he's trying to help me get it done. I think he feels bad for me.  ;-)  So, hopefully my kitchen will be done. =)

I am going to post a few pictures because lets face it-who doesn't love seeing pictures on a blog, right?

Pictures of Quilts, Car Seat Covers etc.

I've been out of the loop for a quite a while and haven't updated on what I have been doing. I am still working....trying to find time to take care of everyone plus squeeze in sewing time too!  It's a big juggle but we're trying. 

I'm going to share some pictures of things that I have done or am still currently working on.
