Feeling Scrappy




I got my "Feeling Scrappy" done as far as it being a quilt top. Now I need to quilt it. I got this idea from Quiltville on Bonnie Hunter's site. I love her ideas of what to do with scraps. I also made a small table topper that needs to be quilted. It's starting to feel good getting inspired again.

My Niece Connie

I have added something new to my sidebar and it is called "My Journey" and it is my niece's blog.
She is going through cancer treatments. She is a very strong and determined lady. I still have Asher's blog about his journey through his brain tumor. They are both in my prayers every day.
Asher has been through a tough journey and he is a tough little guy. Connie and Asher are very dear to my heart and I am blessed to have them as part of my family.

Inspiration

Sometimes I need a little inspiration and I read my niece's blog about her journey going through her recent double mastectomy. She is so strong, upbeat and just beautiful inside and out. She is a nurse and was so very caring to my mother and sister. So after reading her blog I felt her inspiration and now I am ready to work on a quilt project. Sometimes I just need a little boost and say "get going". So I am working on a scrappy quilt that I found on Bonnie Hunter's site using her leader ender concept. Just using my scraps and knowing it will not make a dent, but so what. I am going to be productive. So off I go to my sewing room.

New Year 2011

I ended with 2010 not being very inspired, but enjoyed Christmas. So I am back to working on projects both old and new. I did not do any projects from Dec 14-Dec 31. I went to the guild this past Tues and worked with some scraps and yesterday I went to Chickasha with friends to sew at the Quilt Shop. I have been busy today and plan to sew some this evening. Will meet with my Saturday group tomorrow all day to sew and have some lunch. Not looking forward to a cold week this coming week. Weatherman says we might have some snow. We haven't had any yet and feel so sorry for those that have had more than their share. So I am off to my sewing room to get inspired. Happy New Year everyone.
