In the middle of the storm!!!

I just moved!!! It was insane and in fact it still is insane. Most things are in their place and it is livable but we still have boxes all over the place. My sewing room ( well sewing corner) is taking form.....slowly :)

My future design wall!!! I can finally have one.

Christmas in july Blog Hop!!!! My turn

It's my turn!!!!

For this blog hop, I had the hardest time finding my inspiration......because I am not that fond of Christmas....well ok I am not that fond of malls and the billion people trying to find the perfect gift....what I do like is fun gifts and fun traditions. It made me think of the ugly Christmas sweaters :) Since I do not knit (funny story....I got myself the book knitting for dummies........still could not do it) I found this great knitting patters and used it to design a quilt

All done with 1 1/2 inch squares........1225 of them to be precise. I used this method Interfacing grid technique so that everything line up nicely and goes faster. It finish 52.5" square and thank to  the interfacing, it  is very heavy and warm. 

Please visit the other ladies on this blog hop!!! They are a wonderful group of very talented quilters !!!!!

Still here!!!

Between my special project for Christmas in July blog hop and the fact that I am moving, I barely have time to do anything I can show here!!!! The least I can do is at least show my new pincushion for my pincushion exchange :) Same as last month but this time it is beige and blue. We are about to lose our post here in Canada due to a strike so I am keeping it with me until there is a resolution, too scared of seeing it lost somewhere in a warehouse :)
