And my fabulous mother recently found an estate sale of another fabriholic (may she rest in peace) and horded boxes of fabric for me. That's really the only reason I wanted her to meet us in UT when Kayla went into the MTC. FOR THE FABRIC! Ok... it was also nice to be with my mother for a few days. And since we are on a spending freeze in our house - I can be happy for some time now :) with my stash.
What's wrong with getting rid of a few kids? I just take over their space! These are the cubbys that used to separate Braden & Shea's rooms. Now I keep my lovely fabric there. The denim quilt on the night stand was one of my first ventures into quilting.
I am an entrepreneur by nature and earlier this year (when the mortgage industry started going in the toilet) I thought I wanted to be a quilt designer. That was until I found out how little they made and how time-intensive it would be. But this is one of the quilts I designed.... "God Bless America" It has all the words to the song appliqued or embroidered in the quilt.
This was a fun quilt I recently did... "Lost Socks" You can't see it, but I've embroidered all of our names next to different socks.
This quilt hangs in the back guest/fabric room. It is one of my favorites... and probably took the longest. It has such fun prints and patterns in it. These are just a sample of the quilts I've done. I estimate that I've made over 2oo quilts. It's definitely an obsession!
So there you have it... now I need to go sew.

Bliss....ann and I just looked at your quilts....I love the sock one. I am on chris' lap top and I love it...so now I need to save for a new computer....my is getting old.
I didn't know you sewed so much. My sister and I started about 2 years ago, well just when I moved to amarillo. I enjoy it but I'm still working on a quilt from a year ago. I guess it's not my time with little one's in the house
