Hey June....wait it's July!?!

Hey everybody, remember me? I seem to have let the month of June slip right by. I was quite busy with summer classes, 2 sixteen week classes crammed into 6 weeks! My children only knew me as the lady behind the computer with her eyes glued to a text book! Thank goodness that is over with. Luckily I was able to find a few minutes to get some sewing in. Nothing like letting your cares slip away as you sew away...until you need the seam ripper.

I manged to make 8 more memory bears and I have all but abandoned my Farmer's Wife quilts. I will get back to those later I think. I finally got another Splendid Sampler block done! #42 Pencils and I found my antique pencil box to sit by it.



So much goes by in a month. My littlest guy turned 5 in June. Father's day came and went. I did manage to make a fun shirt for my dad. I used my Silhouette machine to cut the iron on material (I love using that machine!)



On a whim...ok my almost weekly stop to the local quilt shop I came across a pattern I have been wanting for some time now. Plus it was on sale! The Spicy Spiral table runner, it's my new favorite pattern. I'm thinking that these would make wonderful Christmas gifts. This one is mine though. It has all my favorite colors in it, what a coincidence.


I'm off to work on more fun stuff. 
Happy Sewing!
