Quilter's Day Book

A Quilter's Day Book for May 14th, 2009

for today, May 14th, 2009
Outside my sewing room window...

the finches are enjoying their lunch. there are a couple beautiful gold finch that visit and i finally got a picture of one of them.

I am thinking about...Carrie Prejean (Miss California) she went to school with my daughter, so we've followed her story. I would hope that every teen or pre-teen would watch her news conference from the other day. She is a fantastic example of standing up for your values and beliefs in a world where our values and morals are put under attack daily. She showed integrity and grace through out the whole mess and was a great deliverer of the Lord's errand.

I am working on...these flowers that are so little and cute.

and now that i have a kitty, i had to pull out this unfinished project. i need to quilt it now.

Some of my favorite things...are these antique quilt pieces. I'm going to frame the sunbonnet sue for the little princess's room and pillows from the dresden plates. I'm thinking that the baskets will be framed or become a chair cover.

On the Longarm is...this quilt from a client who has been waiting and waiting...

I thought I'd share...this book, designing with fabric, by autumn leaves. it's awesome. if you like fabric and you love scrapbooking, you'll love this book.

an altered book for fabric samples. LOVE it!

a little girls nursery. makes me want a little girl.

fun page layout made from a napkin. so cute!
and the pictures are wonderful and inspiring!
Have a GREAT day!

I totally agree with you about Carrie Prejean...and I don't really like Donald Trump but I was proud of his decision too.

Stay Cozy, Carrie

I totally agree with you about Carrie. I have been so proud of her throughout this entire process. What a great woman she truly is and she should be representing the USA just by her character.
I also love the rest of your daybook as well!
Have a wonderful weekend!
