Aurora's Quilting Corner and more

Since I had time for once to just sit and do nothing I had nothing better to do then to try out beanies!! I knitted one and I crochet the other. Here are the results

Good morning, so it was 4 am when I was wide awake and my husband asked me the question: Where do you want the frame to be? Normally I don't expect questions like that at 4 am. Give me a cup of coffee first, let me check my emails and let the dogs out first, then you are able to talk to me. Needless to say I have the best husband ever since I got my long arm quilter for christmas. Now this means to me learning how a new machine works, but it also means I am blessed. On top of getting this awesome machine I got a new shipment of fabric in? Do you wonder what kind? Hello Kitty fabric for all the little girls out there. Now if that isn't beautiful fabric right?  But did you expect something different from me? I really should do a blow out sale for the people that enjoy fabric just like me!! With that said it is time for the next cup of coffee and the rest of the baking I should be doing for the wonderful family of mine. Wishing all of you out...

Here we go again. I had some time and I had found this fabric so I made this quilt in memory of my brother who was a firefighter when he was alive.

Sunday mornings how I like them , sitting in my slider looking out of patio window and drinking a cup of coffee. The bird is sitting on his perch, Willow our RagDoll Cat is cleaning herself next to my silder and Mia, our Labradoddle is in the recliner next to me snoring! Since I forced my brain to shut off last night and sleep nine hours I feel some kind of energy I haven't felt in months. ToDo List for today: Study for Biology, Work on my Lab Report, study math since I have an exam this week, cut my orders, finish my Tshirt Quilt so I can sent it off on Monday...and then I can sew for pleasure. But first things first, I need to take Mia for a long walk. This dog enjoys when she can run and play. She is such a calm loving dog. Do you sometimes feel like life is passing way to fast? And you are asking yourself why am I sitting here. Life is precious and personally I would prefer to go to the big city on weekends, go to Canada, see plays and museums. But we can't right now,...

Once upon a time, there was an older student that was just very very tired of studying. So instead of sitting down and looking at the books, she started sewing with a fabric that reminded her of the Raggdy Ann and stitched Animals. It reminded her of a blanket from a little boy she once knew, it reminded her of her little brother and his blankets he carried around. So instead of doing what she was suppose to do, she sat down and made her machine soar. Out came the most delightful toddler rag quilt just for a boy to love.

Looking out of the window, I thought to myself this evening. How carzy will it get? It was 54,cold and stormy. I went to the barn and those clouds rolled in. Just like in this pictures the clouds came it...and then it started pooring. Now call me crazy and/or nuts but I like weather like that. Personally I think it is really awesome, and I wish I could put that into a quilt. The dynamics alone are beyond awesome. My next quest was to check online if there are more pictures where weather seems to be nuts...and sure enough there were very interesting ones out there for ...I thought I would put them on here. One of these days I will take one of them and transfer it into a quilt!!!

For once a little bit of time for myself and on top of that time to put in fabric!!
