Making the rounds...

The stomach flu has been making the rounds in our

family this week which means a lot of laundry, and a little

bit of down time. Just enough to time to whip up the

camera strap that i have had on my list for a year.

Check!

Obsessive

How many log cabin quilts does one person need?

It may be time to find a new favorite...

Monkey Business

1" strips! I must be crazy.

Reason why I'm making a sock monkey blanket: ?

When life gives you Lemons...

Make cookies?

In a Bind!

Yes, i actually bound a quilt myself. BIG shocker.

I honestly didn't know if i still had it in me. How spoiled am i?

Did i mention that i HATE (excuse the strong language;) binding?

and that the lady who binds my quilts does the tightest, pointed corners for a steal?

Who could blame me?

O.k. maybe binding isn't all that bad.

Just keep moving...

I feel like we are in a state of constant moving in our home. 

One child sleeps upstairs because it's too dark in the basement, 

one wants to move down for a little more privacy. 

My craft room seems to be in constant movement in relation to it's size. 

(which means it has moved a lot!) But i'm happy to say that at the moment 

it is shrinking AND moving upstairs. Hooray for light! 

Here is a sneak peek.

A new permanent home for my collection.

and a new quilt {kind of} for the wall.

Salsa

What is it about the fall and salsa? 

In this house they go hand in hand. (in mouth!) mmmm
