Happy Sewing! 

Winnings!

I won Micki's giveaway and the book is here! I was so excited when the package arrived!

Most of you probably know Micki from her blog. She was born in Philadelphia and now she lives in Ireland and I was born in Bulgaria and I was living in Philadelphia also, so that made us close at the beginning. We became blogging friends and she is very kind and wonderful person.

Do you know the saying "what goes around comes around"? Micky won a GO cutter and one to give away, so check her blog often for the giveaway that is coming!

The book is called "Miniatures in minites". It has a lot of cute projects that I can't wait to try! I have done paper piecing but not miniatures, so I am excited to try that!

Micki surprised me with one of her gorgeous handmade cards! I have been admiring her journals and cards that I have seen on her blog. Now I have my own!

Thank you Micki!

Speaking about winning giveaways ... the winner of my giveaway - Robin made the "Candy Table Runner" from the kit that she won! My LQS carries the kits and you can find it here.

I was surprised she made it so fast because she is recovering from a shoulder surgery.

You can see her post here.

She used the leftovers from the kit to make a scrappy backing. Well done Robin!

Until next time, Happy sewing! :)

Thank You and Show and Tell

Thank you to all the wonderful wishes for our sweat little pea! We are so blessed! I am working on the baby's first bib and I will share a picture when it's done. Thank you!

I made this orange and green version of my "Candy Table Runner" when I was testing the pattern and my instructions. I made it in the favorite colors of me and my husband. When I showed it to Barb she said, "Oh, that is perfect for Halloween!" I never thought that but I guess I should finish it and use it in my Autumn decorations.

Last week I had my first quilting class as a teacher and Barb made the "Candy table runner" using Christmas colors. I love the way it turn out! She started at home and had the center pieced. She said my directions were clear and easy to understand. Thank you Barb! She didn't follow my directions for ironing and when I showed her the orange and green unfinished version she wished she did. She was very creative and made a little pinwheel on the sides. She also had the idea to make little fabric 3D candies to add the the side on the table runner! That is so creative, Barb! She used iron-on batting which worked great and she didn't have to pin the quilt to start quilting. I hope she sends me a picture of the finished table runner to share with you. We had so much fun!
