A Jelly Roll Bikini
Did you know that March is National Craft Month? Yep, it’s a month to stay home from work and join us on a island retreat over at Moda. If I’m going to be on an an island for a month, I told Chelsea she could come along too. She got all excited when I let her try on a jelly roll strip for her Bikini top. I swear it almost didn’t fit! Now she’s waiting for me to make her a bikini bottom to wear on the island. She wants to look good if everyone is going, so I’ll have to take my “bodkin” on the retreat to pull the…

Snowmen are made for wool
You know, don’t you, that I’ve got this thing for wool? I don’t want you to think I’m giving up on fabric, because applique is my passion and I’ve got new patterns coming very soon. It’s just fun to mix fabric and wool together sometimes, especially when those Moda designers keep coming up with such cute fabric.

Are you sitting down?
Make sure you are sitting down. This is a photo of the colors of Moda Bella that I’ve been working with for the past 2 weeks. I know you won’t believe it but these colors “go” with my next Moda fabric line! Do you see that red at the bottom of the stack? It has me doing the happy dance! Red!

Moda Blog Hop Winner
Are you having fun on the blog hop? Did you see Camille’s “Farmer’s Wife” quilt on her post? Oh my, that is a beautiful quilt! To think that she’s made something for herself, makes me want to jump right in and join the Moda friendship group. It’s a great way to keep up our skills and learn new ones. I’ve never make a circle block like Zen Chic and I’m really tempted to try. Of course, I’m the one always running from project to project trying to get everything done. Too many deadlines and not enough time. On to picking a winner… The Random Number Generator has picked #267…
