I love to sew just about anything. I also do lots of crafts and painting shabby chic. Sewing is something I've been since I was 11 years old. I made my first quilt top out of neon cotton material back in the 60's and now my daughter is the proud owner of the quilt. I make I Spy Quilts, I Spy Bags, Tooth Fairy Pillows, girls clothing, crayon aprons, pin cushions, just about anything. Sewing just gives me peace of mind and puts me in a comfort mode.

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.

The total $15.00. It had a rotory cutter a ruffler: and so much just look at the thread,pinsfabric marker lots and lots of items.

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:
