Stuff

So I have finished the tree quilt. Going to have to come up with other ideas besides trees :). It looks so much better in person of course :) Will take a better photo too :) obviously I need photography lessons :)

These leaves are a deeper green so that they give the impression of the foreground leaves

Flowers at the bottom of the quilt, and again the green grass is darker than that

The feathers do look like they are falling down from the tree :) yay

And I am working on this....

I am getting through it faster than I thought, once again that dream of owning a long arm would come in real handy right now :) but since my craft area shares with the dining area and if you sit in the dining chair behind my chair at my desk you wont be able to get out of your chair :), there isn't really anywhere to fit a long arm. Talking about space, I helped a friend move and her new house is so gorgeous that I got a little house envy :) there is so much room!! and now she has her own craft room, it looks so lovely. I had to go home and get over the urge to move in with her and her family :) well just my craft stuff anyway :)

Watching Continuum still, just got the latest episode, very cool. Give it a go and tell me what you think.
Also am reading another Michael Connelly book, his Harry Bosch series and am enjoying that. What are you reading?

Black and White

I have finished painting the black swirls and I think that it looks all right....

Now to iron it and then have more fun with the free motion. Sometimes I think about owning a long arm where it would take me a day to do this, such a nice dream :) and so much fun. Only problem would be finding somewhere to house the thing. I really need my own sewing room, maybe the kids can share :) because that would make my life easier hehehe, but then again, it wouldn't matter as I could just escape into my sewing room :). Oh well, back at my desk with the kids fighting with each other over minecraft. 

I got another urge to cut up fabric, so this time I am trying a black and white design, will post photos when there is more than just squares to show. Or maybe not at all if I stuff it up :) my skill is not in piecing at all. 

Reading another Michael Connelly at the moment and really enjoying this one too. Want to read a really good family saga/chick lit but the ones I pick all suck so I will just keep trying. 

School back countdown: 3 days. (it's the noise more than anything else)
