A productive morning :)

First of all, 

I have to say that I got quite a laugh at the comments

from my last blog post about making 512 bags!

It was an exaggeration for sure :)

My buddy Marcia uses random numbers

when she's talking about something that happened

multiple times and it always makes me laugh.

So when I said I made 512 more bags,

I really only made 7 more :)

So thanks for the laughs yesterday!

(I wish I was that fast!!!)

This morning I made 2 sets of potholders 

and a pacifier leash set.

Now it's time to get my house cleaned

and get to the grocery store

because I have dear friends coming over for dinner tomorrow!

And last but not least....

Friday is the International Quilt Festival!!!!

Wooo Hooo!!!

And we're back!

I feel like it's been forever since I blogged.

I've been working on a swap package that is shipping tomorrow

that is a secret swap so I can't show you any of it yet.......

And I've been busy sewing :)

I listed 10 new sets of potholders in my shop today.

And 13 new basic hostess aprons.

Now I need to clean up the mess I've made of my sewing room....

*ugh*

Why is it always more fun to make a mess,

than to clean a mess?

Heatin up the kitchen with some cute pot holders!

Can you believe that Mother's Day is only 15 days away?

My Mom in in Germany this year but I'll be sending her

a package to open over there.

I'm working on a needle case for her

and I'll throw in some artwork from

the great-grandchildren and some photographs too.

She'll be super excited to run around

and show everyone what she got.

Believe me, my Mom would still be over joyed

if I made her a macaroni necklace!

Seriously.....she's my biggest fan

and thinks everything I do is golden :)

I'll admit...I feel that way about my kids too!

My Mom told me once, that the only way

to really thank your parents for all they do for you

is to be a good parent to your own children.

I try my best to live up to that.

So with Mother's Day coming up pretty quick,

I decided to add some new pot holders

to my etsy shop.

If you need a fun gift for Mom

that is under $20.00,

check them out!

They'll ship Priority Mail

so you'll get them in plenty of time :)
