The quilting bug as really bitten me hard! I not only joined our local quilt guild Hearts 'n pieces, but I have joined the local Jo Mortons group "Little Jo's Women" where we make little quilts using all of her fabric from Andover. They have a yahoo group that I also joined to chat with other Jo's groupies and I'm particapating in the secret sister pin cushion exchange. I again, made my cake slice pincushion and added some gorgeous Prima flowers and leaves as well as some pearls from Kasier Craft. Oh, I so don't want to give this away!!!!!!
I'm so so pleased on how it came out! :) What do you think?
And while I was there at the Andover site, I spotted some new fabric that will be coming out in December! Check this out: Cosmo Cricket Snorkel line !!!!!!!! Oh, I'm going to make a quilt for us to take to the beach! :) Just perfect!
Now how about a layout....I don't do layouts as much as I used to. I'm coming to the realization after I had over 1000 pics of Disneyland that I'll never scrap everything. So I bought some regular photo albums and put them in. The boys were happy to look through the albums. I figure when I want to scrap a picture I'll pull it out to do. But at least we can look through the pics instead of having them in a box in a cabinet hidden away until I did scrap it. Anyways...I did this layout a few months back...
Also it's my day to post on the Boxer DT blog...so go check that out too! :)
Tonight I have a date with 5 guys.....Joe, Donnie, Danny, Jordan and Jonathan...Oh oh, oh, oh oh...the right stuff! :) :) ;) I've got really great seats and with my new point and shoot that takes AWESOME pics, can't wait to see what I can get from the concert tonight!
That's all for today! Thanks for stopping by! Have a great and creative day!!!

Love the pin cushion!!! I love to sew and I miss it!!! I have a list of project I would like to do. Alex is afraid of the sewing maching sound! I am sure he will get over it soon, just like the vacuum.
Oh, and I love fabric, and I collecti it, just like paper. I have boxes and boxes.
Awesome layout.
How was the concert????
