Sew Day...Hooray!

 Saturday afternoon I got to spend a few hours sewing with a couple of my sisters at my parents house.  My Dad was busy working on his wood carvings while Mom was binding quilts and doing some embroidery.  Nann, Tracy, and I were making little bags.  I made these for Christmas presents and stuffed them with chapstick, nail clippers, hand sanitizer, Kleenex, etc.  Tracy and Nann wanted to learn how to make them.....so we got together to work on them.  I got these 2 made.  I took my camera so I could get pics of their bags, but forgot to get it out and take pictures.  Oh well.....trust me they were super cute!!  P.S. the pattern is in the Better Homes and Gardens Quilts and More from Spring 2011.  You use charm packs, matching fabric for lining, and some fun buttons!!

After getting Christmas put away we got out a few of our Valentine's decorations.  It's so fun to change the look of the house for the different holidays...plus it gives me a chance to hang up my holiday quilts.

I planned to work on some quilt blocks today before work, but I got on Pinterest and lost track of time.  Sheesh.....I need a job that pays you for quilting and pinning cute ideas on Pinterest!
