My 1st Baby is Finally Here!

This last year has gone by like a whirlwind. The Stitchin' Post is doing Great and for Christmas I received a pair of colored Angora Goats, one of which was pregnant. Today the Big Event Happened and here are pictures of my precious baby. Mom Prada is very attentive. I had to put stall mate Mattie into another stall because she wanted the baby for her own.

Baby is less than an hour old and still wobbily on her feet. The picture with her mama Prada is my favorite. Haven't named her yet. I was really shocked at her coloring, but she is gorgeous.

Stitchin' Post

As you can see I haven't posted in over a month. Sybil announced that The Stitchin' Post was closing at the end of March and I was in a panic to get everything finished and sold. But I have good news, Jane Bell and Linda Bowlby bought the Stitchin' Post and are moving it to 1500 1/2 Macon Drive in Macon Market. They were finishing up putting everything into storage today when I was there and the new building won't be ready until April 15th, but it will be all nice & new. New fabrics have been ordered and we will be getting in the new Viking Machines. They are building me a new Service Room (I won't be under the stair anymore) and I have a bunch of new Quilting Classes in the works. Today Peggy McQueen took a bunch of pictures of the quilt and cake we did for Sybil and I will be posting those as soon as she emails them to me.

Fat Quarter Project Bag

This is a copy of the Townsend Sock in a Bag Swap. I was able to make it out of 3 fat quarters. The outer fabric is from Timeless Treasures and is newspaper articles about cats too cute! Hopefully I'll get enough people interested to be able to have a class.

Cornacopia

This is a very unusual colored quilt, it is peach & lavendar. It is a moda pattern that had lavender and a very loud color of green and I substituted the peach and it now matches the beautiful rose border. The corners were made by leaving the setting triangles out of the the on point setting.

Pretty in Pink

I love making half square triangles and this is a beautiful pattern. Quilting will come later when I have a little more time, but I have the perfect pattern and Sulky Blendable thread.

Rupert

A good way to start my blog is with my constant companion Rupert. I rescued him 3 years ago as a 5 week old puppy that the vet wasn't sure would make it. He is now a healthy, happy boy at almost 100 lbs.
