New Quilt Pattern.

So, here is my new quilt pattern, up and running!!! It is called Stars and Strips. It is my biggest quilt to date measuring 60" x 72". I used Simple Abundance by Bonnie and Camille for Moda. Super easy! And great for using up that stash!!

Sorry Guys!

Sorry I have not been around for a while. I did not make it into the finalist selection for the quilt contest I was in, but that is ok! I still have a beautiful quilt that I am now using every single day!! Also my husband and I have been working on relocating his business, and renovating the new location, he ended up getting hurt one day, and was rushed in an ambulance to the ER. He broke two ribs on his back side. It took a good few weeks of constant care and help (plus taking care of the kiddos) but he is now doing and feeling better. He will be sore for a while, but he is back to working (or shall I say fixing up still).
On the quilting front, I am finishing writing my pattern for my quilt that I did enter into that contest. I hope to have that done this week. I also have a cute skirt that is almost complete. I will post some pictures soon. Now that things are getting better, and the kids routine in school is getting somewhat smoother, I am hoping to start quilting and sewing a lot more, so keep checking back!!
Thanks for reading, and I am going to have a giveaway when my pattern is ready to sell!!

I will leave you with some pictures of the sunsets here out in my yard these past few weeks!
