QuiltCon 2013

 

 

My sister, Mom and I were able to get away together for 3 days in Austin, Texas and attend QuiltCon. We took quilting classes on different techniques, ate out, went shopping, got little sleep, and met a lot of great people. I loved the 2 classes I took and learned so much from both of the teachers. Unfortunately, since I've been home I have yet to finish either quilt that was started. It's always so nice and refreshing to get away with your best friends! Oh, and just in case you are concerned- QuiltCon has nothing to do with convicts! Hehe!

Snow

What a difference having a backyard makes! We have had so much more fun playing outside this winter. We have the perfect sized sledding hill next door and a backyard full of unclaimed snow to enjoy! 

My latest makes....

 

1. A cute little ruffle clutch for a favorite things party that I never was able to attend. 2. A sewing bag to hold all of my sewing tools and supplies made especially for QuiltCon 2013 3. A pillow for my first ever pillow swap for the quilt guild I am involved in. 4. Matching skirts for my girlies! 5. The Multi Tasker tote that I bought the pattern for 6 months ago from Anna Maria Horner herself and was too intimidated to make. 6. A super fun quilt for a sweet friend about to have her 4th, (FOURTH!) baby.
