Pretty Peacock



















I had such a productive day yesterday! I spent the day with my friend Debbie and had such a fun time! We stamped, talked, had some some awesome spaghetti that her husband made, so yummy, I thought about it all day today!  It has been awhile since we have had time to get together, but next month we are taking a road trip to Charlotte for a convention and shopping I can't wait! I love having a chance to play with sets I don't have, and plenty of times I come home with a wish list of ones I "need"! I used the peacock set from Hero arts, and colored with copics.

This week I am going to try to get going on my quilting projects, I spent a good part of Saturday at a local quilt store getting my pattern together. I love looking at patterns and books for inspiration but find that I usually end up just figuring out my own pattern. The challenging part is the measurements and amount of fabric I need. Thank goodness the woman who owns the store she is awesome at figuring that out. I now have the pattern and all the fabric to do a quilt for Wyatt's big boy bed he will move into early this fall. Then I got all the stuff to do the baby quilt in lavender and greens. I can't wait to get started I just need the energy to get them done!
