Yo-Yo MaMa's Block Exchange...


I've mentioned before that our Yo-Yo MaMa's club is having a 1930's block exchange this year.

And I also wanted to show you this fabulous 1930's 9 patch that my friend Betty made and brought for show and tell at last months meeting. 

I love everything about it!...and I thought you might like to see it too.

 She made it using the 2 1/2 inch squares that we all exchanged last year. 

I don't know if you remember the quilt that I made out of my squares but you can read about it here.

Okay...here's a peek at the exchange blocks from last month...


It's almost time for this months meeting and I'll be sure to take pictures of more blocks to show you.
In the meantime...I'm still buried underneath piles of Sew Cherry...

I hope that you are all finding time to do your favorite things!

What I'm listening to...

I thought I would take a little break from designing and share with you what I'm listening to as I'm locked up in my studio stitching away on Sew Cherry.
I love to read but because I'm short on time... I like to multi-task and listen to books while I'm sewing.
I download  books from Audible...which is a website for online books on CD. I download directly to my itunes and then sync the books to my ipod...easy peasy!

These are the 3 that I just finished...I loved them!
Of course you can see they have to do with quilting...and friendship...and families. A sweet read...or listen..whatever!
There is a fourth book in the series to be released next month.

I heart my ipod....do you?
Of course I heart music too and also listen to it quite a bit in my studio.
I have created several playlists to go along with whatever mood I might be in....what do you listen to while you're sewing?...

Well girls...back to my stitching! Talk to you soon,
xx

By the way...did I tell you that my friend Sherri over at A Quilting Life...has done a little "stunt sewing" for me using Sew Cherry?....if you wanna see a sneak peek you can click here.
Thanks Sherri...you are a sweetie!
