Do you name your things? I haven't figured out a good name for my machine yet - maybe Lucy.... Suzy...... What are some good sewing machine names?
Oh My Gosh! I just filed all of my new designs I have collected from the past two months - what a job! Now I have 6.64 Gigabytes of embroidery files! Only 1GB is alphabets! Now this is a bit ridiculous, isn't it?! I'm sure some a duplicates, but no
Not Embroidery - I was a Hatfield for many years, and my older kids are Hatfields! I'm really excited to see the mini-series Hatfields and McCoys on History starting tonight. Any other Hatfields or McCoys on Cuties? I promise NOT to start a feud :-)
A neat Quilt quiz! How many of these squares can you name? Just for fun - my first score was 40% but my second score was 100%. Good thing they give you a second try - LOL It was fun trying. quilting.about.com/library/block_quiz/bl_quilt_block_quiz.ht

John 3:16 digitized by sewbird! Can you believe the detail this has in such tiny stitches? I did the applique patch on this one too, so I could get the stiff, firm background. I had better luck stitching the words first, then the outline. It's attach
This is one of the FSL cross bookmarks from Embroidery Library. I stitched it on Patrick's quilt in the middle of a zebra square.
Another shot of more of Patrick's quilt. I was having way too much fun personalizing it to make it special for him!
Another Marble Maze. I found an old key to go with this old key fabric. How fun is this! This one went with one of the neat quilts from Lique that had lots of geometric designs she stitched on it!
Thanks so much to sgillette for sharing her very useful - and very fun - Marble Maze design with us! I made at least 30 of these to go in with the quilts and they stitch fast. I did make it as large as my 7x5 hoop would take so the marbles I had could pa
There are two little sisters who for some reason are not in the orphanage, who would have been left out of all the surprises, and won't be getting a quilt. So, I made these two little zip bags with little surprises inside. The lining is matching fabrics
This is the design that came from a lot of little designs to go on the quilt for Patrick, the young man who is the director of the orphanage in Uganda. I made this quilt with him in mind with lots of fabrics of Africa. The design was too large for any o

Uganda Quilt by AnAngel in Georgia. This larger quilt is going to one of the older orphans named Esther. She is going to be thrilled with this quilt. You can also see the maze that is included - it has ladybugs, of course! Thanks, Angel, for letting us
