a little handwork....

what a difference just two weeks makes i'm actually stitching on some applique pieces while Lucy coos to me about life, it can't get much better than this.....

what a mess.....

spent my entire day out in my sewing room working on this, that and whatever.....boy did i ever create a big mess, piles of wool, fabric and papers everywhere, ahhh but truth be told it always looks this way, visit me anytime day or night, this is what you'll find and i like/need it to be this way kind of how my brain is a jumbled mess.....i do pick up occasionally and vacuum but then it all goes right back on the floor.....
p.s. thank goodness my tablet has spell check, i never knew that vacuum had two u's in it, obviously don't use it enough!!!
enjoy your week....

wash day.....

finally have these little quilts ready for washing today, took Lucy with me yesterday to quilt class, we did a little fabric shopping, so we're washing and tea dying and maybe? a little sewing or preparation cutting for the weekend of sewing, after baseball games and a Dutch Festival with my other grandkids......
take care and thanks for being so patient with my slow going quilting progress, oh by the way Lucy is 2&1/2 months old today, growing way too quickly.....

what's wrong with this picture?

so lucy went with me to run pattern copies, makes the job that much sweeter but she was confused as she thought i was some great quilt maker or something and all i had for her to lay on was an old sweatshirt!!!
next time i'll remember something cute for the cute baby....
this having lucy with me may help my ego as two people were nice enough to think she was "my baby".....
enjoy your day

a rainy sewing day.....

nothing much better than a rainy day spent in my sewing room.....the beginnings of little quilts for a new pattern got under way today, using scrap one inch strips, my favorites....

lucy.....

just a little cute picture of sweet lucy, she's discovered the wonders of her hands..... she's at gramma's house today to help with dishes, laundry, orders, etc, great gramma is coming over next week to play with lucy and i will have some sewing time, it's take a loving village to raise this precious baby.....
