Sneak peeks....

Working too hard + playing too hard = little time for sewing.  I did manage to quickly put together this stacked coins baby quilt top (Heather Bailey Fresh Cut fabrics) on my day off on Veteran's Day last Wednesday.



Unfortunately, I ran out of the white fabric to put one strip across the top and one across the bottom.  I made a special trip after work on Friday to get more, but managed to buy the wrong white, so it still sits and waits.  And I keep hiding it from the cats.

I need to make several small handmade gifts, so I started experimenting.  How cute is this little block?




Or this one?



Or, what about this one?  I never knew partial seams could be so fun!


And what could possibly be cute enough to go with them?  Maybe this?


Or something like this?


Add them all together + a few more and....



16" square mini quilt top!




Sis Boom Bell Bottoms!  A gift I don't want to give away!

Library Update:
I can't believe how interested everyone has been in my library books!  I finished The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, A Homemade Life, and The Help.  They were all good and VERY different.  I am now about halfway through The Time Traveler's Wife.  What else do I currently have checked out?:



I heart the Hillsboro Public Libary!
