Hello!
I recently participated in a journal page swap. Ladies all over the world were swapping pages through Jennibellie's Journal Workshops (ning.com) This particular swap was Alice in Wonderland themed. I LOVE Alice!!!!
So here is my page
I look forward to seeing other's interpretations!

Hi!
My hubby's birthday was at the beginning of the month.
I wanted to make a wall quilt that celebrated him.
So while I was working on another project in secret.
We are both photographers and his favourite colour is blue.
So I gathered my fabrics and made this!
This cute pattern is by Sassafras Lane Design: Mini Focus Freeway.
It's an applique pattern.
Done in a day!
Hugs!

Hi!
My girlfriend asked me to make a couple of these cards for friends of hers.
I liked it enough to make an extra on for my mom... also a Star Wars fan.
Shrinky Dinks are still useful! Printed out and coloured some logos I found online, hole punched them then shrunk them! Tie them to a card I stamped and then tried to make look like space....
Hugs!

Hello!
Another project closer to making our home even more comfy!
Last Spring I started a King + sized quilt for our bedroom. Gudrun Erla created a pattern called Hope and used all proceeds of the pattern to give to her local charities helping those who were struggling without work due to Covid. I gladfully paid for the pattern and started a LOOONG project during her quilt-a-long. Here's her version of it.... (a smaller more doable size)
Handed it off to my girlfriend at Aba Daba Quilts to long arm the quilting. And today finally finished sewing the binding on it.
It is 93"x 110" with 120 finished 9" blocks set in an offset barn raising pattern. It's Done!!!!
Hugs everyone!
HI!
I have a renewed energy today!
Spring, warmer weather, healthier eating and of course God has saved us all!
I made this banner for my mom and sister a few weeks ago and they immediately put it up on their door... guess they liked it!
The first week of February I followed along an online quilting summit with Rebecca Page. She had many instructors and free videos to learn new techniques.
This was a one day project with Janel Metsker and her pattern is called Bunny and Blooms. I altered it a bit, as the original was meant to be more horizontal, and I knew I wanted it for the the door.
I just used scraps that I had and a fat quarter for the backing.
Hello!
It's been a while since I bought myself new stamps, as I am phasing out of that to do more Quilting. But I very happily offered to help a friend out with providing some cards for her business. She sells Epicure. I have NO food stamps except chocolate. So I went to another friend, Wanda, that sells Stampin' Up! and placed an order for these yummy stamps that I will use for quite a while.
Though I am phasing out stamping, I have too many supplies to not keep making cards when asked, and for our own purposes. And I still enjoy it!
So here is my latest batch of playing with colour and style, just for you Trixi!
Hugs!

Hi!
It is so hard to keep happy these days....
Cold, locked in, worry, you name it!
But it's Valentines Day...
So Friday I went out and dropped off a little care packages to some girlfriends I've been missing. Just a couple cookies and a card. Sent one to my mom and sister too.
I've been hording these chalk sprays for a while too. So, primed them up with water and went outside for a few minutes to do some graffiti on the snow....
Try to keep doing things!
Hugs!

Woohoo! Time for some green Quilts! LOL! Not often that these two days land on the same weekend. I finally finished one of my UFOs (unfinis...
