Have been working on a lot of things... finishing knitting, some garment sewing, quilts, home decor things.

| Cabled Button Toque Hat pattern by Amy Swenson, click here for pattern. |

| Potholders...just playing with layouts...the lobster fabric was where I drew my color choices. |
 |
| Started working on New York Beauty...took another paper piecing class from the great folks at Button Box. |
 |
| Sew many fabrics to choose from...trying to get the right feel. |
 |
| Where I am to this point. |

Ok, I need to slow down a bit...what's important in above is the process...you get your inspiration....but then the angst of auditioning fabrics to get the look you want... so many many options. I think what this quilt is doing to me... is leading me to try reproduction civil war era... something I haven't worked with much. The tiny prints and patterns are really lovely. I have kinda been turned off by them in the past but now I think I am starting to like them. Sew much sew that I bought the new
The Farmer's Wife Sampler Quilt book and have been traveling through out the surrounding Boston area to quilt stores to procure enough different fabrics to start on it!!
