The Generous Quilter

November 14th, 2008

Quilt giveaways are becoming quite popular of late! Dana at the Old Red Barn Co. is giving away not one, not two, but THREE different quilts!!! They are all stunning, but I particularly like the Nest quilt.

Time is running out, so run, don’t walk, to Old Red Barn Co. so you can oooh and ahhh at the lovely quilts. And while you’re there, take a moment to browse the homemade bath and body products. So tempting.

Christmas Crafting

November 11th, 2008

If you are in the mood to make some crafty Christmas gifts, Randi, from i have to say… has posted a wonderful tutorial for a kitchen set. Simple enough for the novice seamstress, and a breeze for the experienced sewist, these projects would make excellent gifts for you loved ones (or to keep for yourself). I also found a nifty oven mitt tutorial and a cute apron tutorial. All of these projects look like great excuses to have fun mixing and matching fabrics to suit the intended recipient!

Remember to…

November 4th, 2008

I did my patriotic duty today. I also took advantage of the free coffee from Starbucks for those who vote. Mmmm…Pike Place Blend hit the spot today.

In other news, I just want to go on the record as saying that I have the best husband ever. Truly. He is so thoughtful and an all-around nice guy. (He even told me that I look cute with braces, although I feel like I am back in that awkward middle school stage once again - lol. I do not believe him, but I sure do love him for being so nice.) Last week he ordered this book for me. Yesterday he had a 40% off Borders coupon and brought home this one. He really does support my addictions hobbies. In return, I bought this for him last night because he had been wanting it. (with another 40% off coupon - I cannot get enough of those).

Here are just a few projects from Seams to Me that piqued my interest…
