SNOW! You don't see it everyday here!!

Yes it is snowing that's why the photo is not clear . Yesterday was in the 60's . A cold front came and it's snowing now. It won't last long so it's kind of nice to see it. It's just enough to remind me I don't like cold weather.

More Key fobs!

Yes I made 14 more for gifts to friends and for rewards at a group I belong to. They are fast and fun to make using up some of my many scraps I have.
Cathy I have been looking for the invoice that came with my hardware. All I did was type in key fob hard ware and did a search and found lots of places to order from. Some have minimums but some don't. I use my crop-o-dial to close the hardware together but they do sell special pliers for it also.

More key fobs

Yes more of the same! I got 50 of the hard ware for the key fobs. So yes I am on a kick!! I like to make pretty ones but the guys in my life don't like to carry pretty key rings!!
I got the belting scraps for under $3.00 for 3 yards when I got the hard ware.
Have I said I love my sewing machine??

Happy New Year!!

It's A new year and yes I got something done yesterday!! It's a step in the right direction!!It's a UFO!! A real one . Someone gave the fan's to Jennie and she sent them to me to finish. I put them on a W on W and used rick rack on the top and bottom of the fans. This will be in the mail today for DD Jennie to quilt for a little girl. I hope to get more sewing time in the next year!! In Quilt Art Magazine gift issue this last Christmas I saw these Key fobs.
So I got on the Internet and found some hard ware and this is the first one I have done. I couldn't sleep last night so I got out my little scrap box and found pinks and browns.
It will be in the box Jennie!!
I think they will make nice little gifts for everyone.
It's a good way to use up all the little scraps from other thing.

Sleep!!

I have been making sleep mask for friends and family. I am one of those people that gets up with the Sun. Even a little light and I am up and wide a wake. I made one for my self and liked it so now every one is getting one.
I like using my darker Batiks for them . It also gives me a chance to practice my free motion quilting.
