Deadlines. They're approaching quickly so I'm going to put my nose down and get some things done this week.
How about you? Any projects you're trying to get finished up?
So sorry to tempt you all again :), but here's some eye candy from a purchase I made with Kathy at Pink Chalk Studio
This is J. Paganelli's Queen Street Maritza. Does it remind you of another VERY popular print, namely Kei dots??? Well, I love JP's version and it's fresh colors!
then this cosmo cricket tailor made. Aren't those mannequins adorable??
And lastly, some new basics. Moda crossweaves! This fabric has a.mazing texture!
Ok, so I'll be back on Thursday with an awesome post for you all.
I hope you can join me then, it has something to do with this pic:
and the words: blog tour, and giveaway!!!
LOVE the mannequins and tape measure fabric - I can't wait to see what you turn it into!

love all the fabrics ... I'm doing the same ... putting the nose to the machine! Yesterday I began AND finished 2 projects, all the while saying that I didn't want to do them right then (wanted to go to the bookstore). I'm glad I did because it's 2 less to think about. Have a few more to do and then it will be Christmas!
Making my son and daughter=in=law lap quilts, something quite different than I usually do, as far as quilts go ... they are both art students and I wanted to make something a little different. Got some inspiration from Louise Bourgeois, you should google her. Incredible work from this woman! Should be interesting to see how the quilts come out.

I've got lots of things I need to get done. Unfortunately the doctor has ordered me to stay off my feet and rest with my feet elevated. I don't know how I'm going to get things done for Christmas. :-/

Love the fabrics - I'm a HUGE fan of Jennifer P's fabrics, I love every single one! I'm trying to finish anything I've started, I've got so many projects going on - if I get one finished in time for Christmas I'll be happy, lol!

Love the mannequin fabric!
Have to finish decorating and then START a couple of gift projects for two special friends. Hopefully, I can figure out what I want to do soon.
Have been making gingerbread pot holders (as shown on my blog) and will continue to make more for little "tuck-in" gifts.
Enjoy your December and the holidays!
