Quilt finished


Our youngest finally gets her quilt! Finished it a few days ago. Now it's just Mr. Q and I that don't have one, but a nice little collection of kaffe facett fabrics is growing in my stash! So... as soon as the holidays are over, look out...

It's in the BAG!

One side....

Then a little shake shake...

and a poke here and there...


Voila! It's a new bag!

Shakara's Pillow


A pillow for a friend...




I've never tried the satin stitch machine applique, so this was an experiment.
The corners were a little hard to maneuver, but overall, not too bad.

the eye for color

mr. q has a great eye for color. he's rearranging for me! here's the blocks layed out for gracie's quilt. it's actually just really BIG bowtie blocks. i wanted the blocks to be big enough to show some of the playful fabric. cute little snails and kittens.

got keys?





lining up some more key chains for holiday gifts.
