There's been a whole lot of sewin' goin' on...

I've been busy sewing up a storm. Here are some of my quilting efforts. (You can click on the photo for a larger view).
Half of the blocks that I need for my quilt guild's block of the month quilt...and...

My Sophistikitties quilt that just needs binding. Here are closeups of some of my favorite kitties on the quilt...

Beautiful!

Begin again...

I bought this print a couple of weeks ago from Simplesparrow. I am going to have it framed and hang it in my bedroom where I can see it first thing in the morning. It's reminds me that each day is a fresh start, a new beginning, a chance to try again. I love that sentiment. Now I am on my way to the gym...to begin again!

It's National Delurking Week...

I just read on Toni's blog that it's National Delurking Week in blogland. Isn't that a funny one? I read lots of blogs and hardly ever comment on them. I know there are people reading my blog and I would love to know who you are. If you want to introduce yourselves, please join in National Delurking Week and say hello!
I have decided that I am going to begin selling some of my "stuff". I'm not sure where or how, but I will keep you posted. Stay tuned...

One finished, one started

I finished the black tank top
so now I can start something new. Right? Right! Here it is...
It's a sweater from the newest Knitters magazine made from self striping mohair. I was able to find the actual yarn that was used in the magazine and I could hardly wait to cast on. I'll be taking my time on this one because I know I will love knitting this sweater.
I am working on some old needlework pieces that I really would like to finish. I am also in charge of the block of the month for my quilt guild again this year. Time to get busy...

New Year, New Beginning...

I love when the new year arrives...it is so...well...new! A clean slate with no mistakes. A fresh start, a new beginning. My resolutions always revolve around getting organized and finishing some UFO's. Here is my first finished object: It's a little tank top that is knit on large needles using two strands of Brown Sheep Cotton Fleece yarn. It is 80% cotton and 20% wool, really nice to work with. I am halfway through a black one! That will probably my second finished object of the new year! Stay tuned...
