It's Voting Time!!!



Contest here

when you click this link above, then you click vote when the page loads. i then click view gallery in the top left of the page, then click from the drop down menu jump to 21-25, click page 22 and it is the third one down on the left. click vote and save your vote!! and that is all she wrote
I was just let know that my entry is number 131. There are only 15 quilts moving on to the next round!!!

This is the most important thing I have ever done, I am hoping to win the sewing machine (mine is an old Singer Sewing Machine I bought at Walmart over 10 years ago, and she now gets real hot and smells funny when I sew.) , as it is amazing, and honestly, I will never own one unless something like this happens. The added bonus of the pattern getting published is pretty amazing also, but for me, is trying to win the machine. I normally do not ask people for help like this, but this is important!! I really appreciate your time, and I believe you can go back each day and vote again, so if you do, I will forever be in your debt!!! Thank you all~really!!! THANK YOU

If you go and vote, come back and let me know, maybe I will put together something special for one of the people who votes and comes back to let me know. Not a giveaway, but a special gift, from me to you!!!
I really do appreciate this, you do not know how important this is for me!!!

Quilt finished


I just finished this quilt. I made it with the leftover fabric scraps from the quilt I made my son. I figured seems that he loves his quilt so much, and I had plenty of scraps left, I made one for sale and listed it in my shop.

My First Quilt Design




I just finished this quilt today. I am super excited!!! I entered it into a quilting contest for McCall's Quilting Magazine. You can see it here. It measures 60" x 72". The fabric is Simple Abundance by Bonnie and Camille for Moda. (So I have my Cotton Blossoms Quilt, and my Simple Abundance Quilt, and soon will have me some Bliss Fabric) I am really proud of myself, doing something of this magnatude is big for me, pretty amazing!!! I hope that I makes it into the first cut. Well, let me know what you think, I am hoping to write up a pattern for it, is this something that any of you would be interested in??

Blogger's Quilt Festival Quilt


Hello All, and Welcome to my blog!! If you are new here, please feel free to say hello!! This quilt is called Stripes and Giggles. This is my first pattern I "designed" all by myself. And if I do say so myself, it is very special because of that. It measures approximately 48 1/2" x 48 1/2". The fabric used is Love U by Deb Strain for Moda. The pattern and the quilt are for sale in my Etsy shop, I have yet to make a sale on it though. Patience. And with having four children, I have lots of that.
