hello again... ive turned into a quilter why you were away

sooooo........ it's been awhile......

i have been pretty busy.

i decided that i needed to do something to look forward to.

being in the valley sometimes kinda puts you in a rut.

so i decided that i wanted to sew me a quilt

i am terrible at sewing.

i took some classes in middle school....

but i never really liked it.

since then if i need to sew something i can usually whip it out.

nothing great looking but it works for me.

so this quilt was a bit of a task for me.

but i think it turned out pretty good.

i finished it in a week and a day.

i LoVe It!!!

the best part is that it has owls

i have a thing for owls right now lol

the weekend after that i decided to road tip to laramie.

it was so funny to head down and see my austy bosty and megs.

on friday i headed down to see my bestest friend christoper david walker!

it was soooo good to see him.

he's pretty awesome because he made me a new bracelet!

the AwEsOmE new purple one!!!!

all in all it was GREAT to get out of the valley for a few days!

when i got back i decided to make my little chickadees a quilt too.

abby rylee and austy were pretty insistent that my quilt was theirs

so i thought they all would like to pick out their own fabric and have one of their own.

as eric says- ive turned into a quilt slut lol

other then that absolutely nothing else has been going on.

only 10 more days left at good ol benedicts!!!!!

just a thought.....

do something that you arent really good at

work hard at it

and be proud of yourself :)

this is what i got when i hung up my skype call tonight

a cute little red heads butt wiggling in my face

it made me smile really big

i hope it did you too
