Yes I am still here!!

February has been a crazy month for everyone I am sure.  I have not been so efficient at anything this month but I did get the Bead Journal Project February piece done.


I think I will start mounting my pieces as I go so that I am not stuck at the end mounting them all.  It may also motivate me to keep going and finish all 12 of them.

Bye for now.
I hope to be able to keep in touch more often and have more finished projects to show.

Have a great day!!

Design wall Monday!!

Good morning,

I have something for the design wall this week!!!
I will be at our local quilt show in May trying to sell my patterns - I must say that I am a little nervous.
I have been designing some new patterns for the show and they will also be put in my etsy shop when they are done.  I only have about 11 weeks to the show and with all the new ideas I have I will have to be working 24hrs a day to get them all complete.
So I have decided that on Design Wall Monday I will show the pattern that I am working on that week.  I hope it will keep me focused and on track for the show.
This week is an applique and embroidery design I am calling "Spring Garden" (how original).  Anybody have any better ideas for a name, I am all ears. 

Also this weekend I finished the january piece for the Bead Journal Project 2012.  My intention for this years project is to mount the squares on a painted canvas to hang in my bathroom.(Is that weird??)
Hope you like it??
