HOW TIME FLIES

It seems only yesterday that I posted and I see it has been 11 days.  So sorry.  I was really doing great for a little while and I do miss talking with all of you.  I have been sparodically posting sewing but not nearly as much as I need to. 
I did finally make another sale on Artfire.  I got an order for one of my rice bags so I made another one to replace it.  This one has lots of lavender scents in it and is a very pretty floral alltied up with a fancy bow and directions on how to use.  These are so great for those neck pains or as foot warmers :)
This is how it starts out.

Then I make a cover with a velcro closing

I also worked on my challenge quilt and am still in the process of putting back one side that I unsewed but don't have that finished.  Here it is before the unsewing.

I had other blocks that are blocks of the month that I also finished.
First is the one from the Remembrance quilt and this is the center block

Now my Mish Mash of different monthly blocks.  This one I did all in greens.

My monthly quilt shop Block of the Month is the Tonga Nature Quilt and this block had 77 pieces.  I am really proud of it.  I think it is beautiful


If any of you live in the Midwest you know we got snow last week.  A good 2 inches but it only lasted 2 days but I did have to snap a photo and share it with you.  Here is our backyard trees that day.
I had a lot to share with you today.  Hopefully I will be back in sooner to share again.  I am working on some purses and beach bags that I have an order for right now so will post them soon.

Nice blog, and did not realize you sold are different venues. Thanks for the directions on the rice bags.
