Why don't she write?

I know I've mentioned it before,

but my hubby is a movie lover.

Especially westerns.

And I've also mentioned that in our family

we use lines from movies in our everyday conversations,

(probably too often :)

In the movie "Dances with Wolves"

there is a scene where they come across people

who were killed by Indians

and the guy says to Kevin Costner,

"Someone back home is wonderin'

Why don't he write?"

That's the line that kept

running through my head  this week

because I haven't had a chance to post here on my blog.

It's been a busy week for sure

and I haven't even touched my sewing machine!

I did manage to lay out my layer cake of

"Shades of Blue" by Moda.

I bought this layer cake, a jelly roll, a charm pack

and some yardage when I stumbled across this fabric

some months back.

It's an older collection and hard to find

but perfect for my bedroom!

We have a black wrought iron bed frame

and I can already imagine this becoming a quilt!

I'm planning to include more reds (shocker I know)

to round it out.

But for now the hard part is deciding on a pattern. 

And now for the reason I haven't been posting this week.

Actually.... 6  wonderful reasons: 

Elijah :)

Caleb :)

Gabriel :)

Sofie :)

David :)

and Evie :)

What could be better than this?
