A lovely Year of Finishes Mid-Month Check-In

 

Here is what I have for this month. The baby quilt I was working on. I am almost finished with it. I had finished hand quilting it and added the binding. Now I just need to finish the binding :)

 

 

March Maddness (1-12th, My Birthday!) Long Post

Things have been so hecktic this year I feel like I have no time for blogging anymore. So I have decided I will blog twice a month at the least, once in the middle on the month and once at the end/begining of the month. You might have noticed that I had started last month.

 

(Sewing projects are the 2nd half of the post)

 

On the 6th we had to take Baby in for a follow up. Last month we found out she had a bad care of earmites and an infection caused by them. She is all better now :)

 

 

Baby does not like going to the vet and hides behind her daddy everytime. Isn't she a cutie! (And my handsome hubby too!)

 

Later that evening we had tickets to see WICKED!!!! I had seen it before but this was Hubby's first time.

 

 

While we were there we ran into our very good friends who were out on a birthday outing as well.

 

 

Birthday girls! Look we are twins!

 

 

 Over the weekend we celebrated my birthday (24!! I know I am sooooo old HAHA). We went up to visit my family in SCV. It was a good day.

 

 

I got my hair cut by a close friend who graduated beauty school, and I love it. We also went out to lunch and after that I went out with my sister to take our neighbor's 12 year old out shopping for her birthday. I was pooped by the time we were finished. But no, they had a surprise for me! My sister treated everyone (and by everyone I mean myself, my 4 sisters, sister-in-law/friend, and 2 other friends) to dinner and drinks! She is so sweet. AND they caught me! I was sung to wearing a rediculous hat and had ice cream smeared on my face LOL. Oh Boy.

 

 

 On sunday Christine had a party to celebrate her birthday:

 

 

 

It was a blast :)

 

(Hubby with his Green Elixer, that is what I call it anyway) At Ferralls for my birthday, on Tuesday.

 

After lunch we went and saw Oz.

 

 

How about some projects I have been working on?

 

Still in the yarn mood:

 

Crochet Roses

 

Cabled Headband

 

 

Dishcloth Hangers

 

Boot Cuffs

 

Dishcloths

 

Ball?

 

Scarf Thingy

 

I needed a new scrubby for the dishes. Hubby likes this one, I will be making more :)

 

Swap blocks:

 

Swap Friendship Bag: Going out!

An envelop clutch for Taryn:

  

Sampler progress:

 

 

Some free time stitching I added to a bib for a baby shower:

 

 

 

 

This is a baby quilt I wipped up for my sister to give her friend who is having a baby (nick named "Smalls").

 

I was also in the Nancy Drew Blog Hop and did not get a chance to finish one of my projects, so here it is: The Pillow!

 

 

AND another pouch (the first one is on the previous post).

Help I lost a giveaway winner! Is it you?

I did a giveaway last year and promised a lap quilt to the winner.

Here is the post with the 2nd chance to win. I need the 2nd winner.

On the honor system I would like winner to step forward so I can make you the quilt. Obveously it is someone who commented on the post. If you did comment and it was not you will you let me know as well? I just feel so bad about taking so long and then loosing the info.


ps. I have a feeling it was JLVerde....

Thanks.

Get A Clue and Birthday Giveaway!

Well, today is the day. Ready to get your clue on?

 

 

Everyone is reminising on the good old times when they used to read Nancy Drew. Honestly, she was really my sisters thing. My Grandma had gotten me the book at first but I got stuck on the first one and decided to give them to my sister. Though later on as I got older I tried reading them again and I actually enjoyed them (I will be getting them for my kids some day).

 

Here are my little projects I came up with (though after seeing everyone elses works I find I am some what lacking in creativity).

This is going to be a pillow. Because of all the crazyness of this weekend I have not had a chance to finish it up (required a run to Joann's).

 

This is a pouch I made a friend for her birthday, just 2 days before mine :)

 

 Since it is (on the 12th) my birthday I have decided to have a giveaway. I have a bag of random black colored sewing/craft items. I will add some more of something to it too.

Requirements: Leave a comment with your fave color (might add something of it in the bag). US only, I am sorry but postage just stinks right now.
