PARTY!

 It took me a week to clean my studio...
Don't ask me where anything is...  (!!)

But alas, I think I am ready for our Christmas Party tonight....

(it may never look like this again!)
 My Cross quilt is not done, but it will still be visible tonight...  
I have one outer row left to quilt.
I had to take a few days to think about what I want to put there...  
more criss crossing feathers? swags? 
Big random feathers...  I think I've made my decision, 
and  hope to finish it tomorrow, and bind it over the weekend...  
I just couldn't rush it... It's pretty special...


 Besides that, I had to get my auntie's quilt top done... 
More on that later... 
Many of you asked how I did that... stay tuned...
And just to get myself into the Christmas Spirit, Here is a silly link to 
an event that happened in Union Square... most likely before Thanksgiving...
How I wish I would have seen this at Union Square.... 
Click the image to take you to the youtube video...

We get these elf yourself cards every year, and giggle... so this was pretty fun to watch.
Today Charlotte sent me this link to0, which is pretty cool for a flash mob.
Definitely worth taking a peak...
goose bump kind of thing.. ;-)




Alright,I Have got more cleaning to do... 
No more sewing today! 

have fun!

  19. When you machine quilt...is it with your standard sewing machine? Do you use a hoop to move your quilt around? Do you mark the quilt or just free hand it?
