I'm really back now!!!

Well, I didn't find my memory stick but I found a cable!!! Now I'm cooking!!! I have so much to share with you!





First, my Vintage Valentine blocks I've completed since I was in Louisiana in May. I am working on the large center block now and will be able to put the top together when I am finished with it! Yes, it's so exciting to be so near to finishing! I completed two of them while I was at my Mom's and the other three after I got home. I just decided to work on this quilt until I was done.

This is my latest Home Sweet Home block. I finished this in Louisiana. I think I have five out of nine blocks done. I'll get back to work on this quilt when I am through with Vintage Valentine.



This is my latest home decorating project. I found this fabric at Goodwill! It was only $3.00 for six yards!!! The moment I saw it I knew what I would do with it. I made a slipcover for my ottoman in the great room. It turned out really nice. I used the denim slipcover that was on the ottoman for a pattern. I changed the corners of the skirt so that the legs wouldn't show. Then I used the leftover fabric to cut out pillows for the couch. I made one with red check piping and box corners and took and old feather pillow apart to use for the insert. I made another pillow sham and have one more cut out. This really adds needed color in the room.

Whew! Now we are almost caught up. Next post I'll talk about decorating the babies room. We had so much fun! Think Pink! (That's my new motto.)
