Have You Joined SJA Yet? ...and My New One!

Sewing junkie!  Yeah! that's what I am!    I just can't seem to get enough of it.  Guess that's why my embroidery machine is always clicking away while my Janome 6500 and I are having another bonding session.   

Believe me, if there was some way I could run my embroidery machine and both of my Janome sewing machines and use my GO cutter to cut the next project, all at the same time,  I would.  Just haven't been able to figure out how to do that ........YET!    

There's always SJA ...(Sewing Junkies Anonymous) but, I just can't bring myself to join and GO to those meetings.  They'd probably make me give my stash away!   Oh No!...my goodness.....what a thought!


Pictures on a post are always more fun, than just talking, so......



The sewing progress of my latest quilt.   And...Yes, the squares and binding were cut on my GO cutter.



Here's one of my faithful "helpers" hanging out with me and my Janome while I sew on the binding.




Sassy Chocolate and Bright Pinks...shabby chic...ahhh!    (oops..picture is a bit blurry!)




Close up, that's better.    This one is now for sale in my Etsy store.



Thanks GO to Sew Cal Gal and Accuquilt for this next picture.  I was one of four lucky winners on her recent blog giveaway and chose the Rose of Sharon die, designed by Sharon Pederson.  Can hardly wait to use it and create something with it....maybe a couple new pillows for my sofa.   Sew Cal Gal is one of my favorite blogs to visit and she is constantly informing everyone about the latest happenings in the sewing world.  You should definitely GO visit her blog and become a follower.




Thanks for visiting......and come back soon.

Just Foolin' Around and I'm a Winner!

Time to quit the pink and red colors (Valentine's Day is over) on my blog, so now it's green time.  So just been foolin' around this morning testing different colors, etc....


Wanted something simple.....and had to be green and here it is.  We'll live with it for a few days ........then who know?




The Win Fairies are flying all around me here lately....and I've really been lucky.  Sure puts a smile on your face, that's for sure!  Maybe it has something to do with my new picture at the top of my blog???


Sew Cal Gal informed me yesterday that I was one of the four winners on her Giveaway blog for AccuQuilt.  I won a GO die of my choice from AccuQuilt.  Now, it just can't get any better than that.


The question is.......which one do I want??  I won quite a few of them, and have bought many, many of them, but there's still a couple of them I don't have yet.  Let's see............

Mmmmmh!!     maybe Sun Bonnet Sue or Rose of Sharon or the wider 4 1/2" strip cutter. 

Which one would you get??
