I just discovered a new giveaway at J Beaudet Studios .  She's an artist and paints beautiful original watercolor illustrations, you can visit her at beaudetart.blogspot.com  She is giving away a couple of her paintings, can you believe it!  I put 2 of her buttons on my blog that will take you to her etsy shop and her website or blog.  You really should get on over there to see what I'm talking about!!

Craftsy BOM

I joined the Craftsy BOM and here are 2 of the blocks I've made using scrap fabrics. 


These colors are really bright aren't they?  This is called the Asterisk

 This is called the Wonky Pound Sign


These are the 2 blocks for January  (I am sooo far behind, but trying to catch up)!!

Well, I was going to download my photos of what I've been working on, but the battery is my camera is completely dead.  So I'll have to do it in a couple of days.  I've been real busy these last few days, which is why I haven't written about anything.  I've been trying to get caught up on the Craftsy BOM and I did the 2 blocks for January and have started the 2 blocks for February, but they are stuck on my camera... I've also been doing some sewing for my church, I make Buntings for newborn babies.  So I've got a picture of the one I finished, but have 3 more cut out and about 1/4 of the way thru... I also wrote a couple of letters for a little girl in Africa that I write to thru Compassion International.  Her is her picture.  This was her first picture I received.




Here is her updated picture I received in February this year.  Isn't she pretty?  I've been writing her for 2 years now and it is the most rewarding thing I have ever done.
