One more thing checked off my list!

So I finished Shana's T-shirt quilt over the weekend.  What I realized from this experience is I need to invest in a cutting table - or possible an indentured servant to do the cutting for me. 

My back and knees hurt so badly after the all day cutting-fest.  This body is not made for that!!

Anyway with a few minor things that I wish I would have done slightly differently - it turned out well.  And since Shana likes it, I guess that's all that matter.  Of course it's still in my sewing room so maybe she will have a different opinion once she hold it in her hands.  ;)







So now my to-do-list is down by one.

1. 2 more sets of curtains for my mother in law. However this is presently on hold because I lost the measurements for the two other sets of windows...
2. Finish quilting the cardinals quilt I started (used a different method on Shana's quilt I like better and thinking about scrapping all 30 Cardinal's t-shirts....still pondering)
3. The little doll house/barn things mentioned above.
4. Busy books - or at least finish one. :)

Since my plan was to finish the busy book(s) for Juliana's birthday in June, and the other projects seem to have reached a stall for one reason or another - I think I am going to begin the undertakings of the barn/doll house project. 

Since the sound of the spawn I have brought into the world are equating to nails on the chalkboard right now and since we have no practice tonight - now seems as good a time as any to give it a go. 

This weekend is jam packed with Tati playing at the HS basketball game tomorrow night and having a concert on Sunday and Bree's games on Saturday and Sunday - plus my monthly FUBO night tomorrow - this may well be my only chance. 

I have to admit, I have NOT stayed away from http://pinterest.com/nhobdy/ quite the opposite, I am using the fact that I have 20 plus other ideas I want to start as motivation to finish the crap (I mean awesome stuff) I already started. 

Wish me luck with my Doll house/barn project - hoping it all goes well!!  And it's as easy as the tutorial makes it look... few more pieces to cut and I am good to go!!

Pretty sure Chloe and Julie are either going to LOVE they they have things no one else does - or with their aunt would just buy them toys like all the other aunt's do.  I'll keep you posted on that.
