One Week One Quilt




What do you do when you go to Jinny Beyer's Quilt Shop and she has a sale. Well of course you buy fabric! Since I was on winter break and hadn't sewed in months I got some fabric and designed this quilt. It was such pretty fabric and a treat for myself. I had it done in a week in between the movies, playing new games from Christmas, football and all the other things you do to keep children occupied and a house running. I can't wait to get it quilted!

Tooth Fairy Pocket

December 29, 2010 - Finally our first tooth came out. All it took was a good cartoon and a pear. Go sit and work on your tooth. He came back with it turned around backwards and hanging on by a thread. So I reached in with a tissue and plucked it out!

Making a tooth pillow has been on the list for months now. It has taken that long for the tooth to finally come out. Thank goodness it was winter break and we could make it right away. We took some scraps from the scrap bag and got to work.

This is something that I just "created" no pattern. Only my second zipper and my first button hole. Love my sewing machine. What a dream to own a Janome.

Jeffrey was impressed and very happy. The tooth fairy left him a gold dollar in his pocket and he has something to collect his teeth in.
