Ok!!! Not bad!!!! Right?!!!!



Hi!!!   Well here is a start!!!  Cute cat fabric!!!  No pattern!!!  Just me giving it a good old fashioned Carla Try!!!!  There is a boo boo on the back though!!!  I sewed the grey piece on with the back seams going the wrong way!!!  I haven't got the seam ripper out yet!!!  Not sure what it will be!  But I have more fabric so!!! It will be something bigger eventually!!!!   I just started cutting and sewing not knowing where I was going!!! Afterwards I realized if it had been planned I could have done less cutting and sewing had I used some strips here and there!!!!  I usually do learn the hard way!!!!!  Good news though my grand daughter picked it up and said aw kitty kats!!!!  So it will be loved!!!! 

Don't forget to visit Leafs me happy blog hop!!!!!
The tree on my side bar will take you there!!!!!  Ha Ha!!!!

New Adventures!!!! Yaa!!!!!!

Hi!!!! It is me again!!!!  Ok after my grandaughters quilt top was done I set it back so I could think about what I should do on the back as I want to piece it also!!!!  I have fabric left from the front but want to be more creative with the back which may wind up being the front most of the time!!!! Then I started on the beginners quilt along but not until week 10!!!!  Just like me to jump in late but I did do three blocks that week!!!! Well that is all I have done so far!!!! Some one ran out and bought five inch precut squares without reading directions and then didn't have the fabric to do the blocks right!!!  So I will regroup and start back on that one again later!!!!  Lesson one learned...READ ALL THE DIRECTIONS FIRST AND THEN FOLLOW THEM!!!!
 
My blocks turned out pretty good!!!! I am not very accurate with the fourth quarter seams yet though...making dolls I always left myself extra room and then trimmed....Next pic will be of my first HST's  done on a sewing machine!!!!   Cool!!!!!   
I have been having fun and look forward to seeing where this new adventure will take me!!!!

Does this quilt make me look SLEEPY?!!!!!

Hi Everyone!!!! I hope everyone is having a good holiday weekend!!!!  If you have been following me you have seen I am adding quilting to the things I love to do!!!!  I will always love dolls and guess what?!  dolls can always use a quilt!!!!   I love all my blogging friends and hope you will join me in my new adventures!!!!!  My adventure in quilting began back in spring when Madame Samm had her Spring Table Topper Blog Hop!!!!  I so enjoyed it and looked forward to getting to see what the next day would bring!!!! Well!!! Towards the end of the hop I could not stand it and I went and got me some fabric!!!!!!!  Decided to just jump in and I just got pre cut squares and got started!!!  I just wanted to get started and I wasn't trying for perfection!!!  You will see!!! Emma above is showing you that she likes it anyway!!!!  The top is done and has been done for awhile  and I will be doing the back soon!!!! I plan to piece it too!!!!  I will be using left over fabric from the top and maybe adding some more fun to it also!!!  Below is some WOW fabric I found at Joann's recently!!!! Wonder what I will do with them?!!!!  Hugs
