Busy Hands

The plan was to gut my sewing room!

You see, it lives in the 1970's

and while I really like the color green

the green faux paneling with it's black trim

just isn't hip any longer!

(pictures to come later)

But, the Lord had other plans

for the cute engineer.

(he'll be doing the remodel)

So for the time being we put

the remodel on hold.

At least for the next few weeks.

My hands really needed to be busy

this past week end

so I popped downstairs

into that 1970's sewing room

and worked on a quilt I

started last fall.

The borders still need to be put on

and then it's off to the quilter!

I just love the fabric!

It makes me smile.

So often I will make

a quilt and then give it away

but this one is staying here.

The fabric is a line from
Moda called Bliss

and the pattern (The Kitchen Sink)

is from the book

Scrap-Basket Surprises

written by Kim Bracket.

I love that book!

I have made several of the

quilts in this book.

The patterns are

easy to follow and you can use

up some of your stash

or

go shopping!

Kim has a new

book out called

Scrap-Basket Sensations.

Can't wait to make a few things

from that book either.

Happy sewing!
