HOW CAN ONE BE GOING THROUGH A DRY SPELL WHEN IT IS RAINING OUTSIDE???



I don't know about all of you but I so enjoyed Sew Cals "It's all about Kids Crafts Blogging Event," it was so fun to see the creativity of the actual blog post and the children and ideas involved.

I love working with children and soon I will be teaching two very adorable girls to sew.  My suggestion, just because I want to.

Look at these two mischievous rascals....  We put a pillow in their little house for comfort and well...they just thought it would be more fun to tare it up....  I must admit, it was fun watching them (yes, I would have taken it away if I had seen the pillow whole but by the time I saw them it was a snow mess).



 One of the projects the Ladies at church wanted to do was make quilts for those expecting.  If you know anything about Mormons, we tend to expect a lot...HA!!!  Nothing to do with our time?  TV broke?  HA!!!

Just kidding....well...it seems that the gals put the squares together, I put the sashing and then my soon to be daughter in law tried out her quilting skills.  For her first time she did a fantastic job!  I think she is a natural.

She quilts but has never machine quilted before.  I also want to say that polyester batting is just horrible to machine quilt.  I so love my warm and white, those backing and top just snuggle up to the batting that you hardly get any wrinkles in the back.  Just a small tip for those of you thinking of machine quilting.
