Straight to Business

There is so much to do and so little time...right to the punchline today!

 
Finishes:

Disney Princess Shirt and Skirt

Another Princess Applique for a special little girl!

And a patchwork princess skirt to match.

I hope her mom doesn't mind that I tweaked the shirt from the sample I had on my Facebook page.

A little "bling" goes a long way!  
Her little brother's Mickey Shirt is on the hoop getting it's final touches.  I will try to sneak a picture in later...maybe.....
 

Not So Raggedy Ann

I really can't get enough of her....

If you'd like to get to know her, she had her debut yesterday.

I am so sad that she is all boxed up ready to be shipped out today.

I now have to add her to my "list" for myself.

One little funny!  Mr. Boss called me from out of town to tease me about her.  He asked where I got the doll from?  I told him that I made her.  He said "yes, I know you made the clothes, but didn't someone send the doll to you?"

Now that he knows that I am capable of making dolls, guess what I will be making as gifts for anyone who has little girls that we know?

Yup.

In Progress: 

Retro Flowers QAL

I am UTTERLY excited.  Progress. 

Not just cut, but partway pieced?

Which happened quickly and beautifully thanks to my Sizzix Big Shot ProWestminster!

I was able to cut 12 of each shape at one time.

 

I even had time to sew some curves!

I adore chain pieced pictures so I had to take one. 
Not really pretty, but it makes me happy!

EEEEKKKK!! 
 I just might be back on track soon with everyone else!

New Projects:

NONE.  NONE.  NONE.

Thank goodness!

Now I hope that my new project status stays the same after visiting everyone over at Lee's.

Sometimes my fellow quilters are bad influences!

My Google Reader says...

I have 810 posts unread.

I will be honest...the T-shirt quilt put me behind 400 and now my newest projects have set me back the other half!

Finished:

First Communion Banner

This is hung at the end of the pew of the the little girl or boy on their special day for their first communion.

 I am extremely happy with the design!!

Plaid Tote Bags

I was asked to make some bags for the two students that "won" the office helper of the day.  I used some leftover denim material and a red check inside for the liner.  They supplied some used uniforms for the school plaid.

 

Second Sharpie Roll

I thought I would make myself one, after making Bunny one HERE.

But mine didn't turn out as well as his!  You can read up about it HERE.

In Progress:

Raggedy Ann Doll:

A friend wanted a Raggedy Ann Doll for her daughter's birthday at the end of the month.  I found this sweet doll on the internet.

I have her bow, and most of the head/body, and arms cut and seamed.  I am waiting for some fabric to be delivered to do her legs, skirt, and shirt!  Easy pattern to follow and

Princess skirt/Disney shirts

Zoo animal quilts for twins:

Remember William and Connor's quilts?

 

I am starting two more for a pair of twin boys!

I am in the layout, cutting mode.  I even found some binding I made from the last one that I forgot I had?  I must have made THREE pieced bindings!!!  So that is good luck, right?

The only thing I am stuck on is the fact that they are twins.  I want them to have two different animals, because I am pretty sure that is important to mother's with twins and the twins themselves eventually...so I should stay away from having two animals, right?  I am stuck!

Anyone know how many posts Google Reader can hold?  I think I might be approaching the max-out?

If you get random comments or replies from this blog from me on posts from a while back...it is because I am finally catching up!

 

If not, I am just busy quilting...or at least that is the story I am sticking to, okay?
