This is my Valentine's Day project for my friend. Her initials are LB, and she uses ladybugs in her quilts and labels. The coaster is from the files of the good times. I love it.
I'm constantly amazed by people. Okay, there are free alphabets that are still up for voting that have been there for a while. But I certainly don't begrudge those who have recently found them and want to collect. I think it's great for others to ge
I fell in love with these, and just kept making. The first one I embroidered the faces separately , then set them into place. Then I got smart and merged them in software. Went much faster and I could use the circle quilting. And now Kreative Kiwi has
Got the grand's ornaments for this year done and handed out.
This year I made 8 lap quilts for the NJ chapter of Operation S.T.A.T, which is Standing Tall for American Troops. They were collecting lap quilts to give out to Veteran's homes. They ended up with over 400. Also they fill and give out stockings.
I'm a proud Mom. My baby-well, he's 36, but still my baby-is going to have his head shaved for a Childhood Cancer fundraising. One of my grandson Landon's classmates-they are 9- has been battling brain cancer for 3 years. A very brave child, he
I made a new batch of ribbon barrettes for my great niece Amelia. They take a while longer now with wonky fingers, but bring back memories of my daughter wearing them. And I get a steady stream of pictures with her wearing them, which makes me smile.

Has anyone ever come across a shark's tooth in fsl? Just spent a week at Topsail Island NC with my gs searching for them, and thought that would be great for this year's ornament. So far, no luck. Jo
Spent some time at my sister's in NC this summer, and worked with her church quilt group, who make prayer quilts for those in need of some comfort. They are hand tied, and at church service, any who would like to tie a knot and say a prayer are asked to
Fell in love with this fish from EmbLib, and made a pillow for my daughter. She's not big on embroidered clothing, but she did like this. Yeah!
This is a very good visual post on cleaning your machine of dust and fluff. I do find that a pipe cleaner grabs the mess quite nicely Now if there was just more room under there so I didn't whack my knuckles so many times. Check out Sewing Tips for
I so love this pillow I made for my great niece's birthday. They embroidered sooo nicely. I might just make one for myself.
I made easter bags to hold goodies for the grands. Very pleased, they are so nice. From bejoscha.tavernmaker
Before the slippers, I knit fingerless gloves for my daughter. She had me take the picture of this side,"because her nails needed doing". My GS, who was doing his homework, grabbed them and proved they work keeping hands warm. Now to use the leftove
