It's Bingo time over at In Stitches....

Suzi

My daughter took this pic of Suzi in my bed one night while I was at work. I found it when I was uploading pics the other day. I don't know why but I like this pic. Kind of describes Suzi since she is all nose most of the time. Suzi is part terrier so her nose is always sniffing around looking for something .

Suzi has also recently decided that she needs to be right up my butt when I'm on the couch. She has started to squeeze in between me and the end of the couch. I think she likes the security. She gets very jealous whenever anyone sits next to me. She will whine and climb over them to get right next to Momma. Silly girl!

Moda Bake Shop Sampler

 

I'm sure most (if not all) of you have seen the Moda  Sampler box. I've been tempted to buy one since I first saw them popping up all over the internet. Well, I just gave in and ordered one. I couldn't come up with a good reason to spend the $40 until today. While I was playing around on Facebook I saw a post by Piece N Quilt. They are having a one day sale on the Moda Sampler box. For today only it is $20 ! I just couldn't let that kind of deal pass by now could I?

This is a little description I found for this sampler box:

Moda Bake Shop Sampler

This box includes twelve packs of 40 - 2.5" x 2.5" assorted fabric squares. Each box contains a pack of the following collections: Bar Harbor, Butterfly Garden, Collection for a Cause: Charity, Eden, Frolic, Garden Party, Lakeside Resort, Looking Back, Martinique, Spring Fever, Verna and Whimsy. Also included are charm pack projects and a history of charm quilts.

It also comes with a history of charm quilts and charm pack projects! All that for just $20! Come on, if you have been on the fence like me now might be the right time to grab it.




(I haven't been compensated for this blog entry. I was just a bit excited to be able to grab this fabric and thought someone else might like the same deal)

Not much happening around here

I haven't accomplished much lately. I made this pillow awhile ago but never got around to stuffing it. Now it is stuffed and waiting to be listed in the shop. I picked this kit up earlier this year at A.C. Moore on sale.

It's a very soft fleece. Nice and snuggly.

I also added the labels to the 6 quilts going up north to the grandkids/kids. Those are all wrapped and packaged waiting for some big boy undies to be purchased and tossed in. Jake has finally decided to use the big boy potty. I guess he is just too busy playing to take the time out for those mundane things.

I went to the doctor on Tuesday. I have some bulging discs in my neck. Plus some arthritis and soft tissue/muscle issues. Lots of inflammation too. This is all causing me lots of pain and stiffness in my neck, head, shoulders and back. Not a good thing when I still have a couple quilts to finish and a couple more presents to get done. It seems to take me so much longer to get any little thing done lately. That's what I get for waiting to the last minute to finish up my Christmas present making! I'm waiting for physical therapy to call to set up my first appointment with them.  Hey, at least I will be getting a massage 2-3 times a week :)

No work today. I'm hoping to get all my Christmas shopping done today. Plus, we need groceries in the house. The kids are starting to complain that there is nothing to eat...and they are actually right this time lol.

I hope everyone has a nice weekend. We have a nice little cool front here...it's supposed to go all the way done to 70 degrees. Wow, I don't know if I can handle it lol. We are actually breaking records for the highest low temperatures in December. Crazy isn't it?
