A square is a square

148 of them. 
 When I first ordered this bundle I was disappointed when it arrived. 
Stripes. I never used stripes. 
Now I love this bundle. Ive used it for so much.
Sad that this will be the last of it. All 148 blocks.
 Off to be sewn in to the stripiest baby quilt.

 Also tomorrow there is some exciting news! I am excited!
Excited for tomorrow!

Dogs and the places they nap.


Sewing has come to a complete stop today. 
Naps are mandated instead.

Triangle Quilt

Ocean of blues.
 Ive got all of my triangles sewn up.
Now to sew them all together.
 These pics were taken in a very sunny room, but the blues really are that bright! 
 This quilt is quickly becoming dreamy. 
 Off to wonderland. :)

Reversible Headband


I used Happy Together's headband tutorial. 
She gives a nice printout for the pattern- even a few smaller sizes for the young kids. 
 My cutout pieces. 
I am making two headbands today.
Both pink! So much pink this holiday! 

 I followed her directions on making these. 
Very simple and quick to make up. 

 All done!
 So pretty! 

 These are going to make a great holiday gift!

Holiday Banner

These fabric pieces were left over from an advent calendar from last year.


 I sandwiched the pieces together with batting in the middle.

 They look like holiday sandwich cookies at this point. :) 
 Sewed the sandwiches pieces together and made a banner out of them.
 More decorations for my sparse tree!

Cat Sleeping Mask

I used the brightest pinks I could find for this kitty sleeping mask. 
For the pattern I used a kitty mask that I already had.  
 I used bias tape to cover the elastic band. 
 The mask sews up pretty quickly and makes for a great gift. 


My trusty models were not being very trusty this morning. 



A few ok photos later they started wrestling. 
Well that didn't last long.

Triangle Quilt.

Fabric picked out for the quilt. 
Precious fabric. 
 It was fabric from my stash so I had it sitting around for a while. 
 Perfect for an ocean of triangles.
 I have about 24 of each blue, grey and black. The white I have above 50.
I counted last night, but I have since forgotten.

 It looks like an ocean. 
This will be a fun quilt.
