Stitching Betsy's Closet

 

I joined Stitching Betsy's Closet Stitch Along. 

The embroidery the gals are doing in this SAL is outstanding. Go take a look.

The host for the SAL are Jenny of Elefantz and Kathy from Shawkl.  Familiar names to most of us.

 

This pattern is designed by Brenda Riddle of The Acorn Quilt & Gift Company.  The SAL starts this month and ends in July 2013. 

 

Surely, I'll be able to finish this in a year??  I can already hear you on the side lines taking bets.  Sure! like Billie is going to have a finish.  Odds on this dark horse are 1 in 20.....giggle.

 

Get you bets placed.  I'm off to the races.

I also want to thank everyone for their prayers for my Mom.  She seemed better yesterday and was watching the convention.  She loves politics.

Sew Spooky!!!, 2012 NewFO Challenge, and Applique Thursday

I've been hunting through all my fabrics for some possible oranges and blacks.  I just bought this cute pattern and buttons for my next "Start" and "Applique Thursday" project.  After I received it, I realized that there is also a fabric pack of cute items for the sidewalk and doorways.  Yep.  I had to have that as well.  It should be here in a few days.

2012 NewFO Challenge

This is my March 2012 NewFO.  Not sure which of Regina Grewe's cups I'll pick.  They are all so cute.  I'll probably make a mug rug.  I've picked my fabrics and am waiting for a green fat quarter to arrive in the mail.
