My sweet mama decided to sew a few quilts and donate the proceeds to her church’s “special missions”, which is for church start-up support overseas. And since my brother {a pastor}, his expectant wife, and my sweet nephew are heading over to the Philippines to start up a new church this summer, it’s extra sweet [...]

In spending quite some time pondering ideas for a new quilt for our living room, I think I have the golden ticket! My hubby built me a really nice shelf/quilt hanger and I’ve just been using quilts I have at home for display. None of them are quite right and I’ve known a new project [...]
Space Invader Quilt

Previous posts here & here. Yahoo, I finished just in time to wrap this “quilt of awesomeness” and stick it under our Christmas tree for Cheyenne. Unfortunately, I didn’t get the decorative pillow done. Luckily, he didn’t seem to notice or care for that matter. I’ll get the pillow done in the next few days. [...]

I’m still not quite sure how I fit this all in, but I’m so happy to report that I’ve finished Luke’s Extreme Team quilt. He’s still getting a decorative pillow that I have yet to start, but that I can whip up in no time. ::Extreme Team:: {Twin Size Quilt} Kona in Glacier Binding & [...]
Just Plain Progress

Last week was jam-packed with “to-dos.” It’s not often I accomplish everything on my sewing list, so I’m celebrating. Possibly to a fault being that I have 5 papers due by Monday and I haven’t started yet. Not to mention studying for 2 finals next week. Nope haven’t done that either. That’s boring stuff and [...]
Extreme Team + Space Invaders

I’m so happy to be quilting for my boys! In spending so much time quilting for everyone else, I’ve been convicted to quilt for our home. Luke and Cheyenne are best buds and worst enemies, so it would come to no surprise that they love completely opposite things. Luke (9) is A.D.D. to the max [...]

Happy Holidays! Last week, I was searching around etsy land for space invader fabric {btw, I found some} and happened across a sweet panel fabric of The 12 Days of Christmas. I had been entertaining the idea of making a Christmas quilt, so I took a closer look. Although this was hardly enough for a [...]
Get Moving!

I’m finally able to admit I’m overwhelmed. It’s not that I don’t have moments to relax or that I never catch up on X Factor, I do. Things are simply hectic in general. I go from thinking about my obligations at work, mentally straining over my weekly college work, feeling guilty about being away from [...]
Island Trails All Pau!

My apologizes for the lengthy blog delay, but I’m finding my Junior year at UHH extremely time consuming. I could rant and rave about all the reading and work involved, but lets skip to the fun part. I’m sincerely happy to have finished the Island Trails quilt. It turned out to be adorable and I [...]
Fishy Fishy

The fishies arrived! And I’m done hand stitching the locations with the exception of a few okinas and apostrophes. Next, the trail {biting nails}. Meet the fish: {Note: Isaac hand stitched the “y” in Valley, which happened to be the last letter to complete the locations. He was upset that he only caught me on [...]
