Sew Busy Saturday

Good Evening Internet Friends!

Today was probably the kind of day a Saturday should be 😺🛌.

I slept late, had a leisurely breakfast and did not really accomplish a whole lot of anything.  

I spent some time in my craft room and made another 4 of my Flowers for my Wedding Ring Quilt blocks:

I LOVE how awesome these blocks are and how perfectly they fit together.  

For Dinner I made Dill Pickle Soup from a jar of  our home made pickles and kiddo and i just may have finished the jar as well:

So YUMMY.  🍜

After dinner we went to the Ice Castle.  We went in the evening so that it would be lit up and pretty and were even there for fireworks at 2100 hours.  It was FABULOUS!!!  🎆

It was really pretty and we will go again next year.

Now, it is time to warm up with some more hot tea and think about getting a good night sleep.

Hope this inspires your own creativity...

Block Five

Good Evening Internet Friends!

It is currently Week 6 of the A Needle Pulling Thread Quilt Shops Block a Week.  "Sew" far I have got Block 5 made this week:

Yet ANOTHER block made entirely of scrap fabrics!   I LOVE these blocks "sew" much. 😺😸😻

Hope this inspires your own creativity...

Block 36...

Good Evening Internet Friends!

"Sew"  I have "sew" many cool things in my craft room just waiting for me embark or complete them and that is what I am setting about doing.

This year I am still focusing on taking care of ME first and then others.  Now that my 2015 52 week block challenge quilt has been returned to me and I have had it quilted I am feeling motivated to complete my other 52 week block challenge quilts.

This is Block 36 of my 2016 52 week block challenge quilt:

TAH DAH!!!  Yet again another pretty completed completely from the scrap fabric pile.

Hope this inspires your own creativity...

Birthday Cards!

Good Evening Internet Friends!

Every month I promise myself that I WILL make the birthday cards for the Quilt Guild Members well in advance of the monthly meeting.

Well........you guessed it!  I am making them tonight:

Happy Birthday Everyone! 🎂

Hope this inspires your own creativity...

Chocolate!!!

Good Evening Internet Friends!

As you likely know I am a HUGE fan of Milk Chocolate!

Every month as part of the Membership Committee of the Sherwood Park Quilt Guild in addition to Birthday Cards I always try to have some home made tasty treat.  This month since Valentine's Day is almost upon us I made Chocolate Hearts.  I used my stash of Lindt Couverture Chocolate and made 98 chocolates:

TAH DAH!!!!

Yes there are more than I require right now but I still need another 120 for my son for school next week💗

Then in typical Kathy fashion I needed some way to gift these to everyone so I wrapped them.  I was very fortunate that another lady from Quilt Guild came over for a soup lunch and help me package and wrap all 70 for Guild:

It was not a quick project but MUCH quicker with her help of which I am most grateful.  😼

Hope this inspires your own creativity...

Multitasking....

Good Evening Internet Friends!

Super proud of myself this evening as I actually got a couple of things accomplished ☺

First off I was craving Lemon Poppy Seed Cake all day so when I got home I made a Lemon Poppy Seed Cake:

Extra Yummy and of course just what my waist line needed.....

While the cake was baking I actually wove in the loose ends of my Boxy Dishcloth.  I finished this dishcloth a very long time ago but could not use it because the ends were not woven in and that just seemed to ominous to do.  

TAH DAH!!!  In reality it took me longer to find the crochet hook than it did to actually weave in the ends.

Voila.....two creative endeavors accomplished this evening.  

Hope this inspires your own creativity...

Gimme Back my Weekend....

Good Evening Internet Friends!

Alright!   Seriously!!!   I want my weekend back.  Today was that day where although it was bitterly cold still had to take the dog for his long walk, take my son to swimming lessons, make dinner, get lunch items baking etc done for the week and of course laundry and wash to floor too.

I did manage to make waffles for breakfast this morning and that was about the extent of my creativity...

At least they were delicious!

Hope this inspires your own creativity...
