Life has taken over

Well, I know I haven't blogged in a couple weeks (don't worry Mom, I have a post today!!), but not much craftyness has gone on.  I mean, we are still getting together every Tuesday, but we're not quite done yet with our quilts, they have kind of been at the same point for the last few weeks, until this week!

Dani and Katie are both quilting their quilts, and I just about have my top all put together.  Mine is taking a bit longer, because {of course}, I decided to do a Disappearing 9-Patch/My own design.  I know they are all going to look great and can't wait until they are finished!

{Going to appologize for the photos...sometimes we just have way too much fun and forget to take them until the last minute!}

 Dani's Quilt all ready to have the quilting done. (Katie's is very similar, but without the border and a pink back rather than blue.)

My quilt all laid out, ready to sew the top together.

Besides these beautiful quilts, I haven't done much sewing at home.  I have been in the scrapbook mood and have been powerhousing on our scrapbooks lately!  Almost done with our wedding & 1st year scrapbooks, and started on our 2nd year one.  I can't believe how far behind I got.

Life other than quilting has been crazy!  Summer is finally here, I've been working out again like a mad-woman, I've been working to figure out what I want to do with my like now that I'm finally working thru losing my job, and Mom is retiring!  So there have been a few parties to go to for her so far with a couple more on the way.  I am soooooo incredibly happy for her!  And she absolutely deserves some time to do what she wants!!  She has by far earned it!

Phew!  So I'm back, can't guarantee I'll be posting every day {but at least once a week, hopefully more!}

I hope all of you out there in Blogland have a wonderful day!! {And remember, in all bad situations, there is always a silver-lining!!}


Always,

I LOVE those quilts! Every time I see beauties like that, it makes me want to learn.

Both quilts are great Katy!
Sometimes we need a change of focus for a while... Good on you for getting caught up with your photos! 8-)
