Goodness me, I have so got to catch up on things here! I have been sewing and knitting.  Knitting is not one of my strong points, but I take it as it comes. It has been quite cold here...helloo it is winter and I have made a few hats to keep me warm.  Time to get some photo's up....there are quite a few, lol. Just aswell the weekend will be sunny....I hope :)
                                                Happy Sewing,

Happy New Year

Wishing you all a very Happy, Safe and Prosperous New Year. I have a list of things to do this month... I still have some UFO's to finish.There are group blocks to make and I plan to cut out the backing squares for my crazy quilt project. I have changed my blog picture to a summer theme, though I must admit; it has been raining cats and dogs here! The thought of a nice island holiday and stitching on the beach....what bliss. Enough of the talk and more of the do...Happy New Year :)

But wait, there is more...

Maria also included a surprise in my Christmas post, a hand made Chrissy card and a very special Mug Rug. What a great idea for a  special card, I am going to remember that one :) Have a safe and Happy New Year, Maria.
