Product Review for CSN Stores

I have been asked to do a review for CSN, many of you know about them by now. They have over 200 stores, and products ranging from home bar furniture, home decor, housewares, toys, shoes, and even things for our furry pets. I have received a bag from them a while back, and I love it, it is one of those good for your back types. (and having 4 kids, I need to keep my back strong~LOL). Have any of you ordered from there? what did you get?? I am curious to know.

My newest design


This is what I have been working on lately. I have been drawing up the design, now I need to finish writing up my pattern, and will have it for sale. I love this wall hanging. Super cute! When my pattern is up and ready for sale, I will be doing a giveaway for it. Let me know what you think, do you like it??

An Early Christmas Present



This is my early Christmas present from my wonderful husband. My 11 year old Singer died on me the other day, and I was pretty sad, mad, etc. Of course it has to happen during a deadline. So today I went to my local quilt store (it's a 1/2 hour away), and looked at their used machines. I got this for a good deal, nothing fancy, but it does have what I wanted, blanket stitch, feed dogs that drop, auto lock stitch, love it!!! And she also gave me a lesson on how to use it, asked what I do, quilting of course, she gave me my quarter inch foot, darning foot, and walking foot for free. (Yikes!!) I saw that the walking foot was $50. So I came home and played with all the stitches, love it, they look so good. I need to finish an order before I can play for real and fun!!! I hope you all had a good day, mine was, even though I had to travel in crappy weather (snow, sleet, etc), but I went slow, and it was worth the trip :O}

So, what do ya think?
