Hello! It's been a bit since I last posted, and I haven't done much in the way of new things....but I was working on finishing some older projects. I showed some pictures last time, of them not done, so here they are all finished!
This is by Lynda Hall, from Primitive Pieces by Lynda. I love it!
This is by Cheri Payne, called "A Time to Sew"
This is a pattern from me!
This next photo is of a sweet little machine I bought from a neighbor! It's from the Standard company, and the machine is called Sew Handy! The Singer company bought Standard, and this little machine was the prototype for the beloved Featherweight! I just got it back from being cleaned and a new belt, and electric wire added! It sews really nice! I wish the paint wasn't all chippy though. They came in 4 or 5 colors. I have the case, and all the attachments and manual! Sweet!
This is what is keeping me happily busy! Watching sweet Henley! She has just about grown out of her portable bassinet, now that she is almost 10 weeks old, so I put up a pack and play in my sewing room, with a Monsters mobile! She loves it, and I can get work and sewing in a little more now! Haha! (I just have to lay her down and no kiss her so much) Not!
And for some great news!!!! Here is my book, that will be released early December! Thanks Martingale!!!!
I'll have more details, as it gets closer, but you will be able to purchase the book from my website, from Primitive Quilts and Projects website, from your local quilt shop, Martingale, and other places as well! I'm really excited for you to see the projects when it is released, because I had a lot of fun making them, and Martingale did a fantastic job photographing them all, and laying out a beautiful book! I sure can't wait to get my hands on the first copy!
Judy and I will be at Sauder Village in Archibald Ohio next week for the rug hooking show! Maybe we will see some of you there!
Thanks for reading, and I hope you all have a great weekend!

Hi Jeni,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on all your busy work while not blogging! What a wonderful event, a new book, finishing some things you made and of course spending time with your lovely grandchild.
Can't wait to see what else you have to share with us!
Thank you Sandi! Such very nice comments! I'm starting to get a handle on the babysitting, and hope to be a regular blogger again soon! Of course, then she'll start crawling, and I'll have to figure that one out! Haha!
