Cooking, Sewing, Working, Traveling, Gardening and Pondering

Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential.

Feverishly Stitching

For the last few weeks, I've been working on the quilt for my great nephew.  Lil guy came a few weeks early making me now be a few weeks late with this quilt.  I'm close to finishing the hand quilting but not yet done. I've put in quilt batting and am backing the quilt with swirly brown minky.

In yesterday's mail, I got some really good things instead of just mail!

I ordered these great pacifier leashes and matching pouch from my friend Karen's Etsy Shop.  These I will send along with the quilt to my great nephew.

Then Karen sent me something for me as a surprise! That girl is crazy and sweet and such an inspiration!

Love it! Thank you so much Karen!

Karen has a tutorial on her blog on how to make these great mug cozzies too!

Creativity that I find amazing

I love Etsy. I know some of you do too. There are two things I really enjoy - Pounce and then the front page items. Both really get me all sucked into things.

I found these and I'm loving this artists work. "Leap of Faith" by Mama Gourds. I mean really? how did she do that?




Then we can discuss favorites and circle and all the fun stuff that people like that you didn't know they liked.

It's addictive and wonderful!

Have you Etsy'd today? I have.
