A little bit of everything and a whole lot of nothing

I find that I am starting a lot and finishing nothing lately. Not good. Must prioritize and focus.

I will finish at least one project today. Come back tomorrow to find out what it is! I wonder what it will be.

Mini Quilt Challenge



As I was browsing through the Bloggers' Quilt Festival, enjoying all the quilty goodness, I came across Amylouwho and her Mini Quilt Challenge. I totally relate to the not quilting as often as I would like because it takes too long to complete a big quilt. I now have to figure out what I am going to make!

What are you making?

Patriotic Table Topper

Amy'sCreativeSide

I love the Bloggers' Quilt Festival! It's so fun to see what everyone is making.


This year, my favorite quilt is actually a table topper. I love this block and thought it would make a fun patriotic table topper. It turned out so much better than I thought would! I made a few mistakes when calculating the border, and I am OK with that. It is a lesson I won't forget any time soon!
I machine quilted this topper. I don't love machine quilting on my machine, but I like to hand quilt even less. There are a variety of fabrics in this quilt, some from my stash and some fat quarters I picked up over the summer. Overall, I am happy with the results, and I definitely learned something in the process.

Happy Halloween!


This wreath is one of my favorite projects I have completed lately. It's hard to get a good picture because the entry is dark and the wreath is dark. Hope you have a fun day planned!
