Big Dreams
Ahh yes, the dreams that I am dreaming for the year ahead in regards to sewing are quite big! Who knows if they will be started or even finished but a girl can dream can’t she? I feel in love with the Urban Chic Blossom Picnic Patchwork in Bark the first time that I saw it and just knew that one day it would be a quilt at our house, so I bookmarked it for another day (a day when I would have money to spend on fabric that I did not need). Recently I visited my bookmark to find that the store was totally sold out and had no hopes of getting more in so I checked out good ole’ Google to find that there just really was not a lot of this fabric left out there. I found one place that had the amount that I wanted but I had not really heard of it. I went through with ordering it hoping for the best in delivery and service as it was my last chance at the fabric. They had a handy little first time buyer coupon on their home page which I promptly applied to my order (can’t go wrong with a site that has a coupon on their home page). I am really happy with the way the fabric came as it even came with a little handy measuring gift (sorry for the horrible picture) and a coupon for my next order. Woo Hoo! So that is at least one project not to mention another quilt that I have all the pieces cut out for, a few gifts, a few purses etc. etc. I am itching to get started but first and foremost I must finish my big dreams from last year, those unfinished Christmas gifts. They are coming a long and it will not be too much longer now…hopefully!


I love all of your christmas projects. You made some fun things! good luck finishing your ufo’s!

Thanks Jana! I am more than half way done on my unfinished pile. I need to make a quick run to the good ole’ craft store to be able to finish…isn’t it always that way!

So much fabric so little time. I love the patterns in these circles. I’ll check back to see the finished project. Have a great week!
