Some great mail...and some finishes.

I received some great mail today.  I got my prizes from the Fall Into Fall Giveaway...I got the Bliss Jelly Roll from Vic and I got the Schlep Bag from Pauline...Both of these are great and I love them.  I am so looking forward to using the Jelly Roll to make Alayna a little quilt.  Vic also made me a cute little Halloween card, I love it...Thank you, Vic.

Here's the Schlep bag that Pauline sent me.. I already have it loaded with some things to take to my small group meeting tomorrow night.  I can't wait to show everyone...

I also got two  signature blocks today too... This one from Mary from the Netherlands:

This one is from Mary too but she's from California:

I am so enjoying this Signature exchange.  It's fun to see where they are all coming from...

I made two blocks tonight too. One is for a friendship exchange for Diane in my small group:



This one is for the Pizza Box Exchange.  This is block 8, only one more block to go for this exchange....This block is called Woven Ribbons and it's form Marcia Hohn's site, Quilter's Cache...

This last picture is a small quilt I finished quilting on.  This was a Round Robin exchange.  It was alot of fun.  I'm really pleased with how it turned out.  I hand quilted this one.  I'm not sure what to name this one. I'm thinking Tranquility. What do you think, any suggestions? 

I'll be going to my small group meeting tomorrow night and I hope I'll have some great show and tell for you, til next time...Happy Fall! 

P.S. Go Rangers!!!

What a weekend!

I have not been able to pull myself away from the computer this weekend, thanks to the Fall Into Fall Giveaway!  It has been alot of fun going through everyone's blog to see what their giveaways have been but that is all I did.  No sewing, no cleaning, nothing..nada, zip, zero.  My eyeballs are bloodshot today because they say once you start looking and concentrating on the computer screen, you forget to blink.  I believe that!  I had to add eye drops this morning to soothe my poor, tired, red eyes.  It has been so much fun going through the blogs, I'd do it all again.  Well, actually, I will be doing it more because I haven't gone through all of them yet.  I have really enjoyed this though and I have seen some pretty fantastic giveaway prizes and some pretty incredible things going on all across the country.  This is so much fun!!!  I hope everyone is enjoying it as much as I am.  Good luck to everyone and I'm off to look at more blogs now.  Only a few minutes to do this during my lunch break.  Til next time, keep on looking at those blogs and entering the giveaways!  Click here and it will take you to my post to sign up for my giveaway.... Fall Into Fall Giveaway
Happy Fall!

Fall Into Fall Giveaway

Debi is hosting the annual Fall Into Fall Giveaway. She is looking for bloggers to participate in the giveaway. I have decided to be one of them. I just found out about this and I'll be deciding what to giveaway...so stay tuned.

When I first started blogging, this was the first giveaway I ever won. It was so exciting. I won a cute little pumpkin quilt and I still love it. This giveaway is a celebration of fall, my favorite time of year. Cooler weather, school starting, Halloween, Thanksgiving, pumpkin pie, apples, caramel apples, the State Fair, ahhh, I love it. It's going to be great fun!

To all of you bloggers, Debi is still looking for bloggers to sign up. She is hoping to get to 200 participants with this Blog Giveaway. She has already gotten the Fat Quarter Shop and Electric Quilt to play along! Don't you want to, also? Go to Debi's blog to sign up! Here's a link or you can click on the title of this post and it will take you to Debi's blog to sign up. Let's celebrate Fall together. Hmm, cooler weather and the changing colors of the leaves, doesn't that sound lovely?
