Not Done Yet ...

Sorry, things like the dentist & and neglected laundry sorta got in my way.  (I suppose I should be grateful my children don't want to simply turn their dirty underwear inside out ...)

But here's a quick sneak peak.

And I figured out a way to incorporate the whites!  Yay!

Just the tiniest bits of embroidery.  It always amazes me what a few simple stitches can accomplish.  Total bang for your buck!

Well thank goodness! I stalked your site three times yesterday in hopes of some fabricy goodness. My hopes have been answered in such a sweet way. Love that the flowers seem to bring the piece a more spring/summer feel. Sew on....

Love the embroidery! It is amazing how small things can make all the difference, even in every day life!

Sweet!!! Thanks for the teaser! LOVE the embroidery on the flowers. I do that now, ya know. Embroider. By hand. 'Cause of you and your inspiration! :)

Oh, and thanks for my new TV addiction. I've watched the first 3 episodes of Awake on Hulu based off of your recommendation. My kind of show! You aren't by chance a Lostie are you?

Thanks for this sneak peak and for including the whites;-) Just throw my laudry in the machine - isn't it amazing/scary how fast there'a pile of dirty laundry? I think there're some bad fairies in my house who add housework instead of doing them! Hildy

Don't your family know that you're a genius at work and shouldn't be interrupted for mundane things such as washing and cooking?!! The sneak peek looks great, I can't wait to see more!

Love it! Can't wait to see the whole thing. I was eying your sewing room photos and I think you have the machine I am considering purchasing (the Pfaff Expression 2046). Any chance you'd share you thoughts with me? When you are done sewing up gorgeous creations, of course : )

This is so much fun to watch it all unfold! Can't wait to see the finished quilt(s)! Yay for you - way to go! I loved your Little House on the Prairie analogy - perfect! (and my funny sister used to refer to Nellie Olson as Smelly Olson. LOL)

Just love it. Love the embroidered flowers. It is such a tease because we all want more. But then we would have to wait for the Market which is too long & so much to see. Looking forward to seeing the big piture.
