So many projects so little time.....

I’ve been very busy here, finishing up projects and writing patterns. Sometimes I wish there were more hours in the day as I can’t seem to get everything accomplished that I would like. My sewing machine has been on night and day it seems. So what is the end result of all this? Hero and Baby Hero are very close to being done. Hero will showcase a simple pattern for all of our machine embroidery enthusiasts as well as an alternate pattern for our regular quilters. Baby Hero was suppose to be back from the quilter last week but didn’t make it. We hope it will be here this week. Then it will be pretty picture time. I have also been going full steam ahead on Halloween! My quilt top is almost finished and Brunhilda's Midnight Ride from Crabapple Hill is complete and is my favorite addition to the Halloween decorations.


“Special Delivery” is a new wall hanging for Christmas and shows really cute Santa on his way to delivering gifts for Christmas! This new wall hanging uses the machine embroidery designs by Sweet Heirloom Embroidery and once the designs have been embroidered, it can be finished in just a matter of hours. If you don’t have any empty walls to showcase these Santas, it would also make a darling table topper. If you would like your own set of Santas and don’t have an embroidery machine, I have 4 embroidered sets available and will be adding them to my website. You can also send me an email and I will reserve them for you. Add your own fabrics for sashing and the border and you are ready to layer, quilt and bind!

I am getting ready to start my fall decorating. As far as I am concerned Labor Day is the end of summer and its fall. To celebrate the season I have a new table runner and I am having a bit of a problem deciding where I want to put it. Harvest Beauty is a very elegant table runner just in time for the fall season. It won’t take you much time to complete this beauty and have your fall table looking stunning. Will it go on my dining room table or on the sofa back table or on the island in the kitchen? The dining room table is winning right now.  The pattern will be available on my website this week for pre-order. The runner is easy and you can use up your left over fabrics or choose the new lines that are coming out.  It would be just stunning using Mill House Inn by Fig Tree Quilts. Joanna designs the most fabulous fabrics! Well peoples…its back to the sewing machine as I have more to finish and get ready. To help you jump start your fall sewing, for a limited time we are offering free shipping on our website so start something beautiful for fall.



May your bobbins always be full
