A New Start
I just couldn't help myself I have been looking at these patterns for the last few months and I just had to start them today. It's not like I don't already have a lot on the go, so what is one more project?
I can't wait to make the Hello Sun Quilt. Luckily I saved all the patterns when I found this site, as it has now been taken down (although you can now buy the pattern from April's etsy shop). Hello Moon is the 2013 quilt along. There are only a couple of these blocks available so far, but I can't wait to see the rest of them. I didn't have much time for crafting today so I only managed to get the strips sewn together. That means tomorrow I can start a couple of the blocks! Yay!

Finishing Touches
Today's crafting was putting some of the finishing touches on a quilt that has been unfinished for way too long. I had it quilted by the wonderful ladies at Marci's Quilting Service. I need to get some beads that are the right size to completely finish it off though.

| Added hair to the angel |
| Added nose and mouth today need to get some beads for the eyes. |
| Some of the quilting detail |
| More of the quilting detail, it really goes well with the theme of the quilt. Marci and Judy do a wonderful job on the quilts. |
This quilt was made many, many years ago when I was attending a quilting group in my hometown. It was part of a round robin we did. We handed some of our fabric along with a block and each person added a little of their own touch to it by making a block using the fabric, some added some of their own fabrics too which really made it interesting.
Ok now a challenge for my quilting/crafty friends! Pull out one of those projects that has been sitting unfinished for way too long and do some work on it. Let's see what we can get done before the end of the month.
