NEXT!

I completed the blocks and they are in the mail to my swap partners! YEAH! Now to those two little boys that recently had birthdays that I wasn't able to attend their parties.

If I can find some denim in my stash I may make Austin some overalls to go with his homespun shirt. I thought some Fall type clothing would come in handy since it really won't be long until we are experiencing some cooler weather.

I happen to have a bunch of Earthy squares cut all ready so perhaps that will be one of my near future projects. I think next I want to make some candle mats and mug rugs though to have on hand for quick gifts.

The boys have stuck pretty close to me all day. Here they are this morning trying to see who could out cute whom and have the desk space next to me. Tesla won out in the end as he followed me on into the sewing room.
