«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 318 of 318We spent the weekend with a day trip so my mother, her sister, and four brothers (all ages 89 to 70) could have a mini reunion. It was so much fun seeing the six of them together.
I spent the weekend watching movies with my boyfriend. Very relaxing. :)

I love your blog & your quilts. I also share your love for all things Ms Schmidt-related & would love to tackle the Single Girl pattern. Thanks for the fab giveaway.
Ohh I have been trying to get this pattern for ages, nobody seems to have it in the UK!
I am about to start a Summersville quilt, just have to decide what pattern to go with :)
Thanks for the great giveaway!
Great giveaway! I've just sewed the rows together on signature blocks that were given to me when I retired. Each person signed a block and wrote the title of their favorite book. I am waiting for border fabric to arrive to finish the top. Thanks for sharing!
I am working on keeping my emotions in check as my 5 year old's last day of preschool is tomorrow! He is amazing and I know that he will be wonderful in school!

Thanks for the giveaway!

My weekends are in the middle of the week. Yesterday I didn't do a damn thing but read smutty books aka fifty shades and today I'm going to go love on a friend's new baby. I'm gonna sniff his head like a line of bay cocaine.
I wipe vmah butt, picked mah nose, and killed a hobo....the usual. >=}
I'm between quilts right now, so I've been on a week long home shuffle and furniture redoing plus putting my garden in since it's almost warm enough for my plants to live!

I'm working on a baby quilt for a co-worker- eventually I'll get it done!
I would love to win this pattern - though it intimidates me! Funny - I just visited your blog last night to checkout your blogger's quilt festival quilt! Maybe I should subscribe to such loveliness!
Last weekend we relaxed - this weekend my mom is coming to visit!
What a fun pattern! I bought it for someone else as a present, but haven't gotten it for myself, yet.
Right now I'm working on knitting my first cardigan! :) Thanks for the chance to win!
• • • Well, I need to finish a t-shirt quilt and then I have three challenges to start. It's going to be a busy summer.
I have wanted the Single Girl quilt for so long, but for some reason never actually buy it!
Ooh, I'm the queen of randomness. Let's see...I have toe-thumbs, and I was related to absolutely nobody else in the world who had them...until I had kids. Now two out of my three daughters have them, and one of them only has ONE weird thumb and one normal thumb. Poor thing. Thanks so much for the chance at this giveaway! I've been eyeballing that quilt pattern for a while!
Im starting my first quilt!!!!!!
I went to the Modern Quilt Guild meet up in Kansas City over the weekend and pretended I was cool enough to be around all the amazing people from Quilt Market ;) Thanks for the chance and good luck getting your Single Girl quilt done! Smiles~Beth
I am working on a circular shawl. It seems to be taking forever to finish. I will finish it this year!
I'm working on a new set of grocery bags and some cushions for our front porch furniture!
Oh, I LOVE this pattern! My skills aren't nearly good enough for it yet, but I was really just thinking the other day that I should buy it soon so it doesn't disappear before I'm ready! For my entry, I'll go with completely random: I learned to sew the weekend after I got my wisdom teeth removed. I was bored but miserable and in pain, so my parents gathered up scrap bits from all over the house and showed me how to make a basic quilt, with ties. That was ... 12 years ago and I still sleep with it every night! Thanks for the giveaway chance! (gotthebutton [at] me [dot] com)
I'm planning to make a small zippered pouch soon.
I'm working on a charity quilt and a paper pieced wall hanging for my dad for Father's Day.
Thanks for the giveaway! This weekend I am going to the Massachusetts Sheep & Woolcrafts Fair.
I'm working on some hats for my daughter. Hopefully she will actually wear them (she is 14 months).
This past weekend I took my nifty space goggles to the park to observe the partial eclipse. That was a cool bit of celestial geekery.
Very nice giveaway! I tend not to use patterns in quilts but I really would like to try this one!
random: Tonight I finally succeeded in baking a certain cake recipe that I had failed at three times before. It is just as fabulous as I expected and well worth the several failed attempts.

I made the best Buttermilk Cornmeal biscuits ever today.
It's my 40th next week and I haven't organised a party. Today I've gone into panic mode and started ringing venues. Why did I do this to myself? I've been procrastinating all year about what I was going to do!!
Oh how I love this pattern. Thanks for the give away!! I am currently working on a report for work, so not so exiting. But in my head I am working on a quilt with letters. The quilt will say "Tu es formidable". That is, you are wonderful. A little girl in my sons class told me this after I had shared a fairytale with them, and it has made me smile ever since.
I am working on a table runner, thanks for the giveaway.
Last weekend we went to Holiday World (in southern Indiana) for the first time of the season. We have season passes, so this should be a weekly event!
I was at the cottage raking
the leaves that should
have been raked in the fall.
Love the giveaway!!
Weekends are never the same around my house. Right now they consist of baseball games for my two boys. And if I can squeeze in time (and I am not too tired) I love my newest hobby...quilting of course. Thanks for the giveaway.
Oooh, this pattern is on my birthday wish list this year! I love the solid you're using for your quilt, I think I like dark grey for this quilt even better than white. As to what I'm working on it's quite a list of WIPs right now but I'm slowly working on a bookshelf quilt for my sewing room which has involved learning paper piecing so I can have a tea cup, spool of thread etc.
I'm currently working on summer dresses for my nieces.
Last weekend I did chores so that this weekend I can go and see my Mum and Dad - they have been over seas and I haven't seen them for 3 weeks and I have missed them terribly. Can't wait.
I need to make a king size quilt for our new bed. Daunting... and i am putting in the garden :)
Purty! I'm supposed to be sewing skirts but I'll probably end up painting instead. :)
I did a little bicycle tour with my sister and we shared a big bowl of ice cream in late celebration of her birthday.
Thanks for the chance!
I've got to get OFF the computer and start working on a bag for my daughter's kindergarten teacher! :)
This past weekend I went to my granddaughter's graduation and then spent the Sunday with her at a Pow Wow.
I'm working on a quilt for my soon-to-be-niece.
Hmmm...
my guild has a sew day, I'm manning the raffle table
I am taking a break after finishing a quilt for my mum using your quilt a long. I put pictures in the Flickr group
I am working on a t-shirt quilt.
I'm working on my Saturday Sampler block of the month and got it all done...2 weeks ahead of time! I have to say that I surprised myself!
I'm working on some summer dresses for my daughter.
This is a great giveaway! I just finished two quilts this week...a quilt for a friend, and a mini for a swap! Thanks!
I'm torn about the Single Girl pattern. I really like it and like DS's style, but I hear that it's got lots of pieces and takes a while to get it all put together. If I win one of these, then I'll know it's the quilting universe telling me I'm ready for the challenge, it's time to jump in, hahaha!
On the weekend I helped my parents get packed for a move , lots of work :-)Thanks for the chance at your giveaway .
I've been drooling over these quilts on-line for a while now. I'd love for a chance to try my hand at it.
i have had my eye on this pattern for a long time. id love to own it.
I've been sewing lots of baby/toddler clothing
I've admired this pattern. I have a double wedding ring quilt that my grandmother made for me in the 70s. Quilts are such precious gifts.
I had a big 'ol fish fry for the neighbors this weekend. I am currently working on a Boy Scout quilt for our guest room and a couple of Sunkist table runners. Thanks!
OH lala a book! Teehee Thanks so much for the post! Last weekend I didn't do much but time to hang during memorial weekend! ^^
I recently finished a wonky plus block for my soon-to-be niece. I'm loving it! Too bad it's not my size, I might have kept if for myself. :)
When we moved, my husband brought the sad little plant that he used to dump water from the dog's bowl into. Five years later and for the first time, it exploded in gorgeous white blooms and looks incredible! Don't ask me what kind of bush it is, I have no idea.
P.S. Yours is one of my two most favorite blogs! Thanks!
I spend the weekend with my boyfriend since the week keeps up both fairly busy.

I'm working on quilting two quilts... one of them was supposed to be a Christmas present... I should probably get that finished up!!
This quilt is on my must make list! I am working on quite a few projects, but my portable one is my hexagons... think I will be sewing them on the beach this summer :)
Just signed my son up for Summer Flag Football

I'm headed to the mountains to get our cabin ready for rental season and to celebrate my 28th anniversary. Thanks for participating in the Giveaway Day.
Wow that's beautiful! I am so excited for summer...fairs, barbecues, sun, reading under a big shade tree on top of a qult, sno cones,lemonade, swinging, and doing it all with my lil' man! What do you love about summer?

I've been working like mad to get my garden ready and planted, so that I can get back to sewing. Thanks for the great giveaway!

What a great giveaway! Thanks.

I'm currently working on a boy quilt with a robot theme.
I love that pattern too, and want to own a copy! Thank you for participating in the giveaway! Hows this for random: As a huge baseball fan, and a resident of the greatest baseball city in the U.S., (St. Louis, Cardinal Nation, for those of you international folks), so anyway, last night at the Cards vs. Phillies game at Busch Stadium, a guy ran onto the field just before the start of the 7th inning. Not just some guy, a NAKED ONE!! The number of flashes popping from the crowd was hysterical! And the cheers when the security tried to capture him and he got away was priceless! So anyway, just thought I pass that along, for a little chuckle!!
I've wanted to try this pattern for a long time! christina112358 at gmail dot com
I have a TON of stuff on my plate right now. There's a Swoon quilt sitting at my sewing machine that I've been working on.
THIS weekend however I'll be working on Graduation Cakes. I have SIX of them to make. YIKES.
I'm working on a han sewn tumbling blocks quilt for my dad and enjoying the nice summer days we have here all of a sudden.
oooh, I have had my eye on that pattern for years! I have been busy making stuff for our new summer cabin: quilts, pillowcases, curtains, slipcovers... at this rate, it will be nicer than my house!
We visited family in Iowa last weekend. Thanks for the opportunity - this is a great giveaway prize!
