Aurora's Quilting Corner and more

My son made a pillow for his girlfriend so I came up with the idea to make her a quilt that would go with it. Here are the results, even our grizzly like it.

It has been a long road. This semester seems to be never ending, with lots of up's and down's and I am tired. So this next week I actually have three days off. Which means I will be able to sew a bit, clean the house, and maybe even work in my backyard for a little bit. I am ready for some relaxation. Or maybe I should be doing this But then on the other side i think i will just enjoy my teenager and do something with them!!!

I have been wondering. I design quilts have pictures drawn but I don't have a program that converts my pictures. Does anyone have an idea?

I decided to have a me day yesterday. No school work so I finish Abbys quilt and started another who h hopefully will be done by tonight.

When my teeth started hurting I knew it was time, but the thought of 1) spending a fortune and 2) walking out of there in pain...well was not very appealing to me. I promised myself I would be the bigger person and not hyperventilate. Just to let you know I was wrong! So I sat in the chair, looked at the dentist and said: Put me out of my misery! But he didn't instead of making my life OK he took this huge needle and pushed it into my mouth. Hello Mr. Dentist don't you know, needle and I aren't friends. All in all I think I had about 15 shots, slowly but sure most of my face went numb and for four hours I endured....misery. He was really nice and talked to me tried to make me feel comfortable but it just didn't work. Later that afternoon after a break in drilling and all he told me" need a root canal" but we can't do all of it today. So guess what I have to go back to get more done...did I say" I DON'T like pain???   So the Novocaine wore o...

Finally working on it and I hope she will love it. Just the right colors for a teenage girl. Can't wait to show all of you when it is done. Size 64 x80 inches

I am going absolutly crazy, between a toothache and a pattern that doesn't let me go. So I will take my sketchbook with me today to work and while I am working I will draw a crazy butterfly quilt, which needs to be done out of left overs I have....now that is a challenge that I think I never would have...but that is my life...full of challenges I think i will take this one as a sketch and go from there I love the different colors in it.
