Ladies have you been over to the sometimes crafter blog? Run do not walk over there to check out this circle of geese!
How cute would pillows be made in this pattern? With my FIL ties as the geese?
I am this close to shoving that sometimes crafter down the stairs ala Showgirls... Another brilliant block like this and I am seriously scratching her off my Xmas list!
I don't care if she is right across the bridge in Vancouver and almost a neighbor! I am this close to not answering her emails anymore!
What a genius!

Im starting a quilt for my step daughter who I have never lived with and don't know very well. Really it's part of my present for my DH, doing something nice for his daughter. I'm mixing it up. she lives in AZ so I think it should be tropical colors.
Anything that shouldn't be there? Anything I need more of? let me know.

Happy Birthday! It was!

So last Thursday was my birthday! Hmrph! I have been buzy with the store and all so it was low key. That is a photo of 30th Anniversary Cheesecake from the Cheescake Factory. They sell whole cakes in a variety of sizes. A whole cake bought frozen can be cut up and put in the freezer for about 3$ a slice. Rather than 7.5$ a slice in the resturant. We got 8 monster slices but I think next time we will get 16 small slices.
My birthday present was going to The Denyse Schmidt Workshop so I am thrilled, even though around here it was quiet on the day. DH is working on an interesting (to him) engineering dilemma. To him its always "solve the problem, save the world" . Times like these he is pretty lost to me.
Friday night I went out to eat with my girl friends and laughed. It's always good with them. We got to taking pictures of our arms bent (looks like ass) to send to our husbands. So stupid and fun.

Saurday night we went to the Garlic Festival in North Plains and did door watch at the Beer Garden. My quilt guild earns a million dollars(ok maybe less) a year doing this, so I did my shift.


This was ones families collection of cups. We watched them drink and build this monster over several hours. Thanks for coming to the Garlic Festival have a safe drive home! The police came and checked they had a driver before they left.
Did you see the In Plain Sight season finalle? Mary can't die! She is the show! cheap trick.

Sunday Stash lets call it #4

Woo hoo! Flea Market Fancy. My girlfriend Faith and I are selling this out of my Etsy shop but not before we each took a healthy whack for ourselves!
I started with the green seeds and the green dots, then Faith added some, then we hit a store.
Finally we hit another store and that's it! The prices are pretty steep for the US but are pretty reasonable for Europe.

I'm looking for green gnomes! any swapper s out there?
also green dotted leaves(FQonly)
pool scene maybe ( I just need a bit)
boys bikes which is munki munki I just need a few for my step sons quilt.

Quilters rock!
