New Quilt: Step 1 PLUS My First Giveaway!

So, I got all my fabric squares ready for this first quilt o'mine and realized...hmm...directions say 40 10"x10" squares" - I have 24 10"x10" squares...note to self: always read the ENTIRE listing before you purchase...soooo, needless to say, I had to cut more squares. Well, I enlisted the help of my 4-year-old and we cut more squares (I didn't have any other Nicey Jane prints, but I think we did OK). Then he laid them all out for me...not sure if this is the pattern I will go with, but I think he did a pretty darn good job.



Now, on to the strip cutting & sewing...yay!!!

Now...drum roll please...here it is! My first giveaway! The prize for this time around is this little tote bag & the 3 fabric flower brooches attached to it (these are removable & look adorable on just about anything...;))



This REVERSIBLE tote is made with both Sandi Henderson & Tina Givens fabrics and measures approximately 16" tall x 14" wide...perfect for holding all of your necessities while shopping, at the beach, or on a trip to the library.
Wouldn't you just love to own it???

  5. My ideal spring day is a day like today. Sitting in the grass and playing with my soon to be 3 year old and her best friend (my best friend's daughter). There's a wonderful breeze, the sun is shining and it's BEAUTIFUL outside! If Phoenix was this nice every day I'd never want to leave!

  6. Girl! :) LOVE the quilt layout. Beautiful! You...are...amazing!!! Okay, you know my story - I try to subscribe to follow your blog but my computer is d-u-m-b DUMB! (and yet i cant help but wonder if the computer, like my sewing machine, may work just fine, but maybe the person in charge of it may have an issue or two?) anyway - spring day - ummm, dream big, right? my perfect spring day (and all other days too for that matter) would find me in Hawaii on the beach, watching my kids play in the sand (a place where there is enough room for Jake to be Jake - safely!) and possibly a fruity beverage by my side :) and patrick jane - i mean MY HUSBAND - laying right next to me in the sand! hah! maybe both of them fighting over me??? ooh, this is a fun dream! :) alright, better sign off and leave room for the next person to comment :) LOVE YA GIRL!!!
