Happy Labor Day Weekend!

Good Morning!

Most folks have a 3 day weekend, I am working today but will have Sunday and Monday off :)
We are going to my sister in laws house on the lake tomorrow and I plan to sew on Monday.

I have been working for the past 3 summers and have had to work part of each Holiday weekend, but there are some changes going on where I work, so this is the last Holiday weekend I will need to be working on! So I am super excited that I will be getting that part of my life back. So working today is not that bad. Dear Hubby and I plan to find a little trailer this winter - and fix it up and next summer we will be glamping ( glamour camping) in our little trailer with Rudy and Poochie! I can't wait! So see when you have a plan working one day on the Holiday weekend isn't so bad. And hey in this economy just having a job is a blessing.

I hope you have a great weekend ...whatever you are doing!
Happy Stitches

Le Petite Project and More

Good Morning!

Today is Sept 1st and we need to show our Le Petite Project for August...now I am not a beginner quilter so I thought this would be fairly easy.....WOW was I wrong, I either had the wrong ruler or just plain had a stupid attack on this one. I ripped, I ripped, I said bad words, I tore some fabric and all I wanted to make was a table topper..... And this is what I manage to get done.....yes 1 block and many scraps to throw in a dog bed. I think I will make this into a pincushion. I sure hope this months project is a little easier :)



The 2 charm packs arrived yesterday from Bear Paws Quilts and more - it was my prize for last months Le Petite -- thank you so much! I already have an idea for these.

Here is a tote bag I made -- I got 2 ziploc bags of pre cut squares at a thrift shop for 75 cents each and this is one of the tote bags I made using some of the squares. I have enough squares to make 2 more totes! A great deal I say!


I gotta get going to work today, but before work it is First Thursday so I am meeting my quilting friends for breakfast!! And this will probably be the last month I will be working so soon I will be able to sew with them in October.

Have a fantastic day!
Happy Stitches!
