it's today! it's today!!


I feel like a kid at Christmas. Not only is Breaking Dawn part 1 opening tonight, my bestie arrives just before to spend the weekend so we can watch the movie together. 

So much excitement!!! 


how fabulous is this?


One of my friends made me the bestest best gift for my birthday. I had an idea she was up to something and she got me good!

You may have noticed that I am a Twilight fan( 2 more days until Breaking Dawn!! WOO HOO!). Anyways, Cheri Lynn got me the best gift ever.

She found a wooden box and repainted it. 


And inside I found these,

Hand-painted Twilight wine glasses.


There are 2 that say Twilight in black. The others have each book title in white then the symbol for each book on the other side. I LOVE them!! 

One of the best gifts ever to add to my Twilight collection!

quilt monday


I love love LOVE this quilt. I can't decide if it's the fabrics that I love so much(based our recent home renos on this fabric line lol) or the cross-hatch quilting.


Either way, it's perfection in my books!

it's not very often

That I have a client request a pattern that I haven't quilted already. So when Donna requested Woodgrain for her quilt, I jumped at the chance.


Perfect pattern for this quilt. I love how it shows up in the borders and check out the backing.


And because this quilt was so quick to do, I got to sneak in one of my own.

quilted with Paisley Max

I thought and thought of how to quilt this runner. I've already unquilted it once. And I love the shape in Paisley Max and need more practice on free-handing it so this was perfect practice. And I love how it turned out.
