One of My Many Favorite Fabrics

Vintage Old Tin Cans
Is there anyone else like me that when you love a fabric print so much that you have to buy yards and yards of it? I loved this fabric so much that I must have bought about 35 yards! I originally was going to use it to decorate for my daughter's little boy's room, but she thought it wasn't cowboy/western themed enough. So,  I've used some of it for small projects that I will show soon. The fabric was purchased at my local Jo-Ann Fabric & Craft Stores almost two years ago in the novelty section. It's called Vintage Old Tin Cans.

Wedding Crazy Quilt

This was my first attempt at making a quilt. Of course, it turned out to be a wall hanging for a family member getting married. I can't remember the size, maybe 18" x 26"--I was very proud of myself!
I really wish I could make some small quilts like these over at Cathy's Crazy by Design blog. They are absolutely beautiful!
I just discovered the blog of Lavendula Loveliness. Everything in it is gorgeous, all her works, as well as the design of her blog.

Look...Again!

Publishers Weekly, which has been around for about 138 years is a very prestigious place to get a book reviewed! Yea for my Children's Book illustrator daughter, Christina!
