Smashing & Sewing

Today I got in a bit of sewing time and finished putting together the Amy Butler squares. I'll save tomorrow for the ironing and cutting and resewing ;o)

I also sorted the few fabrics that I have - which has prompted me to thinking, what to do with all the little leftovers. Hmmm?

I also have decided to make my black Smash into a sewing project book. So I can keep track of what I make, how much things cost and where I got bits from.

And I have to keep kicking this little dude off my chair - apparently he thinks my cushion is pretty comfy too!

Have a Happy Monday,

Over the last week  - in between quilting and bedrest, and getting lost for hours looking at sewing blogs - I received my pre order of Smash goodies. And I haven't even opened them yet. Which is probably due to the state of my room. I'm in the half packed, sorting, purging state. And it's all mess.

Some of which you can see around my computer in the next pic.

I also updated to Lion. It took ages.

And made my computer do this. But after a restart - it all appears normal again. Thankfully

And I managed a little baking - crunchy topped muffins. I made the base mix, split it in half and did half raspberry and the other half apple & cinnamon. They were both yum.

I also took a trip to spotlight and got the other things that I needed for my pincushion. I may try and get it done today. I don't imagine that it would take too long.
Off to my mums tomorrow for a roast lunch. Can't wait.

Have a Happy Weekend,


Just popped in to say I finished my little Ellie. I stuffed up a bit - it was quite fiddly. I think I should stick to quilts! 

Randomly

 My hubby didn't want his ipad anymore and thought I'd use it more often in the kitchen - um, yes please. Thanks sweetheart! I have been putting recipes and recipe apps on it for the past couple of days. Awesome!

 My SC box finally arrived today and in it - my very first Smash book. I love it. I think it's the perfect size and so fun. Can't wait to start playing with it.

I'm in the middle of packing up my scrap room. I can clearly remember the last time we moved and the boys were complaining that the most boxes they carried in were from my scrap room. It's so very true. So I've started the packing process as it's going to take quite a while.

And in 2 days time I am off to a class to make my very first quilt. I am so excited I can't wait.
Have a happy day,

I got SMASHED!!

 I checked my mail box the other day and what did I find? SMASH!!

 Awesome!

 So so cute. Love it!

 And today I had to make more bunnies.....

and fill them. And a couple may or may not have jumped in my mouth.

Have a Happy Easter -
