New Projects

I made a quilt for my son but didn't get it back until we returned from NC.

  He had a golden retriever that passed away.  

She was our dog first then when he moved out he took her with him.. 

 That dog just adored him! 

 So when she passed away I decided to include a nod to her in his quilt. 

 I used Holiday Homies by Tula Pink. 

 It has a golden with glasses. 

 I used the pattern called Comfort and Joy. 

I finished and bound it and was able to gift it to him recently.

I decided to go through all on my vintage sheets and sell them.

I have SO many fat quarters!

I made FQB and put them in my ETSY shop.

This was the mess when I was sorting them all out.

Of course Cole was helping me!

I did find more sheets and FQ after I had them all bundled up!

I see making more in my future.

I have layer cake sets available, but not listed just yet.

They are so pretty and make such gorgeous quilts!

We had a little electrical issue this past week into this week.

On Sunday our microwave stopped working.

We quickly realized that everything on the same circuit was also out.

Circuit breaker off and outlets were still HOT.

This took out my entire sewing room.

A friend came over to help hubby diagnose the issue.

After some work it was determined that we had a neutral wire loose that might be causing it.

So hubby said he wanted to replace the outlets one by one.

He didn't realize that the outlet by my side of the bed was on the circuit.

My electric blanket wouldn't work so clearly the 2 plugs in the room needed testing.

He kept insisting it had to be an outlet in my sewing room.

I said the one by the bed was loose and SCARY.

He replaced a few but everything magically worked once he replaced the scary one.

Unfortunately, he asked me to clear a path to all the outlets in my sewing room.

OH NOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Two are behind dressers, good luck moving those, LOL.

One was behind a mountain of fabric.

No joke, a huge pile!!!!

So I worked and worked and WORKED to clear it out.

It made me really want to continue cleaning.

You can see the path.

I will be going through the cubbies next.

I cleared out a LOT of fabric that I need to list for sale.

I have all the bundles of vintage sheets listed in my shop here.

I have some fabric listed on IG but maybe I should put it here too?

Stay tuned.
