I've been making more I Spy Quilts as a friend of mine wants some for gifts.  I have about 9 cut out and ready to sew but first I have to put together the puzzle of how I want them to look!  I had a friend to visit from the beach this weekend so I know this week I'm be sewing up a storm to catch up. I wouldn't have traded her visit for the world as we had so much fun..  Hope you've all had a productive weekend:)

Haven't gotten as much done this week as I was wanted to:(  But I did make about 35 more Tooth Fairy Pillows.  I've started mailing them out now.  Tomorrow my husband will ship 2 to Florida to a friend from school, thanks Jan.  I started a new I spy quilt with 6 inch squares which is the first for me as all my I Spy has been 4 inch squares.  Dad and I went to the mountains to a family reunion and got there 2 hours early.  So with nothing else to do we first stopped at a yard sale and bought 12 kids patterns and about 7 yards or more of kids print material for $4.00.  I do love a yard sale!! Then went to thrift stores and bought 2 bags of poly pellets for $1.25 a bag and I've been paying $8.99 at Michael's. Also got several other great items that I can use with my crafts like a Scrabble game as I need the letters for a project:)  Well that's all for tonight. Take care!

I've been working hard sewing the Tooth Fairy Pillows and the I Spy Quilts and I Spy Bags.  I took Dad to have eye surgery Thurs. and took a bag full of TFP to turn and stuff while I was there.  I completed 11 of them before they told us Dad couldn't have the surgery that we had to wait 2 or 3 weeks as they had to talk to one of his other Drs. and change one of his meds. Better safe than sorry:) Anyway I hope to have a few new pictures up of another project I've set my mind on doing so come back and see what it is!!!

I've been very busy making Toothfairy Pillows for the last week.  I guess I've made over 25 now:)  Cutting out about 25 more and going to sew them up but not turn them so I can take them with me to work on when Dad has his eye surgery on the 16th.  I think turning, clipping, stuffing and sewing should keep me busy for several hours as we should be there from 8:00am to 6:00pm.  Please keep him in your prayers.

Made an Ironing Board and stool for my craft/sewing room.  I needed an Ironing Board next to my sewing machine so I wouldn't have to jump up every time I needed to press something.  I LOVE IT!!!

The first quilt is a small 4x4 ft.quilt. A friend wanted it for a little girl as a Christmas gift just to throw over her while she was watching TV.

This is an I Spy Quilt I made for a little boy at Christmas:)

Wonder why I can't get anything done today???

Grand-doggies that's why!!!! Just look at those eyes:)

I made quilts for my daughters, nieces and nephew and this year I made a fishing quilt for my daughter's boyfriend Andy since he's been in the family for 20 months.  Long enough for hard work:)  His hobby or passion is fishing so that was a easy quilt to gather different fishing squares together.  I kept one main fishing sq. to connect the rest of the squares as you can see he was thrilled!!  Now what am I going to make next???  I know I had enough left to make a toddler bed size quilt to sell!!

I made a Doggie quilt for my Daughter's boyfriend Andy for Christmas:)   Yes that's him in the picture with his dog Maverick.  I think I'm going to advertise this type of quilt for pet lovers and for people who have lost their pets as a memorial quilt and see if I can sell some.
