a cute little book

6/4/13

Good morning.  It is still on the cool side here on the West Coast  as we are knee deep in what we affectionately call June gloom.


I have been enjoying some productive hours behind my sewing machine and am busy putting a super simple pattern together for a summer quilting class I will be teaching here in my home. 


I've been thinking that I will post it here on the blog as well, so that you all can sew a long.



I had to share a few photos of the cute little book I made for the shower I went to on Sunday.


These little memory albums are so fun to put together.  I think we'll have a book a long in the near future, too.



I just finalized the details on one of the doors that has opened to me recently and I can't wait to share it with you soon.  There are still a couple of puzzle pieces that need to come together and so my learning to wait skills continue to be sharpened.  Ha!  I guess they must have been pretty dull to start with to require so much work now.


I guess that's it for me this lazy Tuesday morning.  Now it's your turn, what's keeping you busy?  And does it feel like summer where you are?

xo, Patty

  5. You are so good at making little treasures, Patty! As for the weather here, it's a beautiful, sunny spring day. I would have been in the garden, but had a lunch to attend today.

    Enjoy your sewing!
