Pin cushions, fabrics and fun

I was “planning” fabrics for the Swoon block swap.

I was surprised to see that the colors are very close…. lots of us picked a reddish color and white or beige backgrounds.

I do want to say SORRY to those of you who have emailed me about joining now or that you commented earlier about wanting to join.

If you comment and are a No-reply blogger, there’s no way for me to contact you, so I had to skip you sorry!

I was also long arm quilting my “ugly” quilt- I’ll show more when it’s done.

Then I got the idea for scrappy binging and I have this bin with leftovers from bindings in the past, so I figured I’d just raid that bin and sew it long enough to cover the quilt! –easy peasy!

And guess WHO had fun with games while I quilted?

She got a hold of pictionary man which has a dry erase marker in it and colored the pictionary GIRL! uh oh….

Then Saturday I got this HEAVY box in the mail!

It was a HUGE pin cushion from Pam from my pin cushion swap group.

I love this big pin cushion!

Look at the mat underneath- it’s BIG

I am planning on keeping it downstairs in hubby’s “man cave” where we watch TV at night, then it can double as a pillow- ha ha! no not really.

Here’s mini block from the women of the bible block.

and do you see the pockets on the side? so neat!

Will work for fabric, notions, threads etc…..

Seems fitting to this picture I saw on FB the other day…

Okay George! let’s go…..
