I found these great buys yesterday at the Goodwill Store.  I thought the pant hanger would be a great quilt hanger and I was right.  Cherie I thought of you with your great quilts and organizing skills that this might be something you would like.

I saw this quilt at a Quilting store today and I really want to make one. I didn't buy the pattern but I think I can draw it out and create my own.  I can see it made up  with alot of colors and bling.

I've been working on making quilts this week.  I've made 7 quilt tops and put 5 together while finishing 2 tonight.  
Two skirts that are getting a makeover they will soon appear as something sweet and totally different!

I made a new folding ironing board to keep by my sewing machine at the beach.  I just love the sewing fabric on the ironing board.  I also made a footstool table out of an old coffee table so I can rest my legs when I sit on the couch.  I painted the legs beach blue and used fabric that I bought to make a valance for my living room and had extra.

My first quilting show held in Wilmington N.C. was awesome!!  I got to play on the quilting machine and Linda from Linderall's would be proud of me.  This is my stash and only paid around $75.00   for it all.  I will go back!!!!!!!!  FUN:)

These are my great finds on Wednesday and I didn't spend much money:  More to come on my yardsale buys.

I'm having such a great time Thrift store shopping.  I found this desk for $10 and I'm doing a Shabby Chic paint style to it.  Bought so many great items pictures to come. Best thing was seeing Turtleman and his turtles, LOVE THEM:

I bought these at the Flea Market fonr $22.00 My husband is going to use them as a pattern. There is a place that gives wood scraps away every day big enough to make the mailboxes.  The man gave them to me 1/2 price when I bought bought of them:  I'm at the beach now and can't wait to start quilting again:

Just made these Minnie Mouse table center pieces for a lady who bought the yellow outfit for her little girl's birthday. I think I'll go back and cut the ribbon a little more.  $12.00 each if anyone is interested:) Starting to pack my stuff to move to the beach for the summer so I might not be back on for 2 days. I have to get my sewing stuff together as most of my clothes and other items stay there so I don't have to pack everything.  I bought some new white bookcases and shoecase to stack and make room for my sewing stuff.  I'm taking my new sewing machine too as yes it's still in the box. When back to Hobby Lobby yesterday got 16 more patterns for $16.00 instead of $263.84. I love it as I just wanted 1 thing on some patterns.
