Still around....

wow, I haven't written in over a month!!!  Between, winter, snow, depression, dealing with family issues and just general blahs, it's been hard to find myself again.  And I'm no where closer than I was back in January.

I haven't done a lot of sewing, but what I have done is awsome.  I'm planning a week of posts for your enjoyment as I'm trying to restart some kind of routine and documentation of my sewing/quilting passion.

Let's start off this Saturday with my Cottage Swap, that is now over :(  I received my 12th block from Paula today and I'm excited to design something for these blocks but sad it is over.  Here are the last two, March's & April's:



Here are all the rest:

I have a few ideas floating around in my head how I want to lay these out and hope to share it soon!

  3. :) I love the seasonal concept and doing just 12 blocks one month idea. It was less stressful and I was able to work on my blocks months in advance! I would definitely do another similar swap ----if someone else hosted it ;)
