Where I Have Been...

Locked in my sewing room!!

I have worked at least 100 hours on this block for my mother in law's birthday gift.  Her day is coming up in April and I needed to finish it so I could get it framed.  I am looking forward to presenting her with this gift!


Do you think she will like it??

You did the writing and the wheelbarrow, right? Nice Touch!

The whole things gorgeous. If she doesn't like it, poke her for me...then run like crazy to the post office...you've still got my address, right?

For someone who doesn't know how to stitch or do crazy quilts and is afraid of spiders, I'd say you've come a long way, Baby!

This is the most beautiful block I have ever ever seen.
I have been trying to buy trims here and there for one that I want to make but OMG, I saw stunning ribbon at $9.00-$18.00 a yard! Do you have a source for all your beautiful embellishments?

This is so special. If she doesn't like it I'm quite willing to stand in as MIL for a while. Beautiful.

I received a blog award today and decided to accept it. Along with the award came a request to pass it along to 12 other bloggers who "inspire others with positivity and creativity." I choose you!

Congratulations!
