What's Up with Me!

I made some more rag tops!!

I decided to try and add some more "BOY" Quilts!

Here it is finished. 
Amara & Alyssa cute all of my rag tops so now they are all 100% done! 



I also quilted two quilts! They both look like this pictured top.

Now I don't have any pinned tops. 
I need to pin a few more of my quilt tops now that I have my pins taken out of these!
Here is a quilt that I have on my design wall! 
Amara picked the layout. 
I bought 17 half-square triangles at the fabric sale. 
I found a few fabrics to add and made this! 

Now all I have to do is sew all of the blocks! 

I hope everyone is having a great week so far!

Hugs, 
Lisa

Quilting Update ~ Process Pledge!

I have been working with my flannel scraps lately. 

I separated all of my girly fabrics and all of my boy fabrics and cut them into squares.

I was surprised at how many Rag Top Quilts that I was able to make with my scrap flannel.This one is made of 10 inch Squares.

This is a 2nd Rag Top made out of 10 inch Squares.

I was also able to whip together two out of 7 inch Squares!

Now all I need to do is cut the fringe.


My roses are doing so good!This is from my "Abraham Lincoln Roses" bush. 

I LOVE these pale yellow roses.

These are my "Queen Elizabeth Roses"!


I love that this rose bush has three different colored roses growing on the same bush. 
When I bought the bush it just said "Fragrant Tea Roses"!

Hugs, 
Lisa

Lots of SEWING & Creating!

Lisa and I have been staying up late sewing!! It has been so great to have my bestest friend here! I love sewing and making stuff with her!! She is always buying great patterns, but she has a hard time reading them.... So, that is where I come in! There is no point in me buying patterns... I can make them with her!
Here are some of the purses and bags we have made this week....
My NEW Purse that I made Sunday Afternoon!

The appliqued flower!!
Messenger Bags...
Lisa's Bag!

My Bag!
I appliqued a flower on it and added the lace on the flap!!

Also she showed me how to make a rag top quilt!! I love it! It was so fast and easy!

Stephen Held it up for me!! Isn't he sweet?

Then we make reusable baggies... This is craft Vinyl fabric!! It was GIVEN to Lisa and I by a lady at a quilt shop... She said it wasn't selling! And so we took it! I know we can make lots of stuff out of it!!
We also made QUILTED book covers! These are sooo cute! I love mine!!
I love that the ladies have flowers as hats!!
Lisa made this one!
We also made pillow cases! I am going to make some of these for the kids for Christmas presents!
This is one Lisa made...

Here is one that I made!
I love sewing!! This has been so much fun!
I am missing Detto something crazy! I feel like I have served my time and now he needs to bet his butt home!!! I am glad to get several letters from him week and I have gotten a hand full of calls!! He is doing good! He said he is really enjoying it!! I am Very Proud of Detto! Please keep him in your prayers!! He has been suffering with shin splints, from running in boots!! He went to the Physical Therapist and was told "You shouldn't be running this much with the condition of your shins, why don't you try riding a BIKE!!" Detto said, "Should I tell my Drill Sgt. that? I am in boot camp still!" I was crackin' up!! A bike? Are you serious?
