Quilts I can't get off the brain...
I am currently obsessed with two types of quilts that I have not yet made. One is of the zig-zag variety. There is a great pattern available through Anna Maria, I love their fabrics, they provide some personality to a variety of projects. The hexagon quilt is another look that I absolutely love, especially when done with modern fabrics (like the quilt to the right) or reproductions.
Wreath with a Twist
I have always been torn between a love of tradition and home making, but wanting to give those traditions a edgy twist. Mandi at Smile and Wave has found a way to do just that with this twist on a holiday wreath. My cousin Kate sent me the link to this project and I can't wait to set a date to make our own.
Fun & Flirty Sleeping Mask
Funny how you can always find the perfect thing after you no longer need it! Not long ago my now sister-in-law was getting married. As a bridesmaid, I was part of trying to put together a fabulous girls night. We put together little gift baskets for all the ladies and a special one for the bride. One part that was missing was a fun sleeping mask for the bride. While perusing Red Velvet's amazing sight I saw this... Love it (too bad I didn't see it sooner)!

Stumbling into blogging
So it begins. I have so often wanted to capture the ideas that drift passed me on a regular basis. Although the ideas float and bounce around in my mind, I rarely have time to chronicle them for later completion. The remain daydreams. This is my attempt to make my daydreams come into reality, recording the things I so much want to complete, so that they don't slip past me.
