A lot going on

I have been very busy with my swaps and a bake sale this Saturday. It is for the Great American Bake Sale, hoping to have good weather. Daughter was here last week my sister this week. On Sunday they were both here so it was of to the Philadelphia Museum of Art and a very nice lunch. Saw a lot of "old friends" while at the Museum, paintings that Ihave not seen for a while. Sent off part of my Sticher Angel and will be sending the rest off soon. Been doing a lot of sewing as I have a craft fair on the 17th and holidays coming.
I will have some pictures soon, just a little trouble loading them.

some puter troubles

It seems that my computer has got the flu, in the shop at the moment. I am at work right now so I should be quick. This weekend I should have my Angel Sticher projects ready for mailing, as well as some other things. Have to say this has been fun, stressful but fun. I will be so busy the next few weeks, a good busy. Should be a nice long weekend , taking Friday off work to do things around the house and get ready for some visitors.
Well that's all for now.

AQD Quillt Show in Lancaster, PA

Just saw this and was thinking of going, also wondering if anyone else on the East Coast near Pa would be going. It might be fun to get together, check out all of the beautiful work, lunch and of course shop. I know it is a little ways off, but something to think about.

Just working and lerking

At the moment I want to pull my hair out...........I have signed up for way too many things, Sticher Angels, Advent swap, Siggie swap a hugh bake sale and three different Craft Fairs and then there is Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been working like crazy and should have everything done on time but I am not as young as I use to be.

Lerking about I found the wonderful site that those 9 talented ladies in Oz have started Among the Gum Trees link over to the right. Cannot wait to see what they have to offer, sure to be fun.

The photo is from 9/03, every year we have Hawiian Shirt Friday from Memorial Day to Labor Day at work and the last one we have a Luau, these are some of the goodies.
Photos to follow of some of my work.........

Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't know if anyone remembers the fabric I purchased that had 1950's kitchen pictures on it , but I could not figure out what to make with it. I finally decided I would make my daughter a table topper from it. She loves things like this. I will have to find that photo of the fabric and since this is a long weekend coming up I think I will work on it. The only plans we have are maybe a BBQ at my brother in law's.

Not much going on.....hahaha

Here is what I did for my Christmas finishes in Aug, over with Quitling is Blissful's Di. Have been having some problems with loading photos on my computer at home so decided to try at work, shhhh don't tell anyone. The first two were fun and I might make a few more as gifts, the second was a panel and I just did a little quilting around the tree and the dove. This is a wall hanging for my dil's birthday next week.

Will have more to show later next week, as very busy at work.

I have to say I am very jealous of all the women I have been reading about who get to go on weekend retreats for sewing, maybe I should try to get one together. Not at my house as it is very small. Well that is something to think about for next Spring maybe.

See ya later.

Nothing Much

Haven't been doing much of anything this past week or so. First had some sort of cold and then the back went out. This week is looking so much better, but a lot of catching up to do. I have to put a calender up in my sewing room to keep track of all I am trying to get done. Have to finish up some Xmas things I started and get working on my Angel sticheries along with my Advent swap. Hubby did take me out on Saturday to see Inglorious Bastards and I have to say I did like it, really silly in parts and really bloody in parts. Had to hide my eyes a few times. Well back to work and hope everyone out there in blogland is doing well.
