It's almost time!

..for Christmas! I would be lying if I said I hadn't already started celebrating a bit... but in my defense, having three stations here that have been playing Christmas music for two weeks is just a temptation that I cannot walk away from.



I have been working on a secret project, as soon as I can, I will post pictures! I don't have a lot of Christmas shopping to do this year... mainly because Joel and I don't have any money.. ha ha...





I have also been working on my purple quilt- and I wanted to make sure the tutorial I found would work.... and I think it is a success! I can't wait to see what this will look like when it's all done. One step at a time!

Happy quilting!

So Close!





So- I am SO close to being finished. I know, I move (quilt) slower than molasses... oh well! I finished quilting....... ok almost, I should hand quilt a few more stars in the middle.... but I just hate it so much!


I have assembled the binding and started to sew that on, and HOPEFULLY will be completely done with this quilt by the end of the week.
Of course, since I am prone to having lots of projects going on at once, here is a picture of the next quilt I will be working on. The lighting was terrible and I couldn't get a "good" picture of the actual colors. I will definitely be doing the http://www.cluckclucksew.com/2009/09/tutorial-double-hourglass-blocks-easy.html It looks soooooo cool, and I can't wait to see what it will look like when its complete.



Let's not get too ahead of ourselves, this is a lot of blogging for one day.... Until next time... !
