Top is done, Finally!!!!

I finally finished the top for the quilt-a-long and I am so happy its done. I don’t love it but I think it is pretty. It was a big pain in the butt to finish so I’m glad its out of my hair for a little bit at least. I am not in a hurry to quilt it as I have too many commitments I need to catch up on.

Anyways, here it is. What do you all think? It was hard for me to take a picture because the wind kept blowing and making it so the quilt would not lay flat. This is the best I could do.

Now to bind my other quilt, finish up 5 blocks, and send my bee blocks for the month. When all of that is done, then I can get quilt this baby! At least my list is getting smaller.

Fabulous Etsy Store

Good morning. I wanted to let everyone know that a friend of mine is destashing some of her goodies. Let me just say they are awesome sales in this store. She has Munki, tons of yardage and even a Wonderland JR. Yes! You heard me right! I said Wonderland!

So head over here to Emmaboo and hurry up before the good stuff is gone!

Tell her Amy sent you :)

Modern swap finished

I finished my modern swap item for my partner. I changed my mind so many times and finally decided to go with this. I hope my partner likes it. I will be sending Monday along with a couple other things.

I also had time to finish Aliya’s school backpack. Some of you may know that she starts Pre-K this year and I wanted to make her something special for her first year of school. I decided to use Heather Ross Far Far Away 2 collection since she loves everything princess.

Her she is modeling her backpack, she seems to like it well enough. I just need to figure out a way to put her name and info on it and it will be ready for school on Monday.If you are interested I would be willing to make more backpacks, just let me know.

Playing catch up!

I have fallen behind, or maybe I just have too many commitments. I have spent this week trying to get ahead of everything so that way next week I can put myself on a schedule. Not sure I will be able to make it because Jimmy is coming home tomorrow (YAY) but I sure am trying.
