My creative space.....

I finished my stitching on Greenlightgo's tea towel. Her theme was nature. So I did a tree in the Fall. The embroidery pattern came from 'Urban Threads'. Great site to get cute patterns from.

I also got the machine embroidery pattern from 'Urban Threads' . I stitched it ( really my machine stitched it) on a T-shirt for my daugther who is into robots now.

On my table I am working on a Christmas gift for my daughter's robotics teacher. This adorable robot fabric came from Ariel.... who has an Etsy store. Yeah , so cute.

My husband's creative space..... he worked on Heinrich this week. My 1957 beetle.

sick

I have been pretty sick for a week or 2. Not pretty, just sick...LOL. I've had a kidney infection and now the flu. I really have not been this sick since I was 15 years old. My point is.... I haven't gotten a lot of sew done and it's killing me. All I can do is sleep and lie in the bed. I am up now eating a bowl of chicken noodle soup , so I figured I would check 'blogland' while I ate.

Last week I did get the boarders on my 'North Pole Quilt'. I think the red and green boards make it look more Christmasy.

My husband got me a new car for our anniversary. He is a 1957 Euro Beetle. I've named him " Heinrich". For short we'll call him " Heinz 57". hehehe

And this weekend while camping I stitched up the latest towel I had from the Tea Towel Tour 5. She wanted our state bird or flower on her towel.

Thanks for looking/ reading. I am headed to take more medication and get back to bed. Hopfully I can sew soon before I go crazy.

Yoda May

Yoda May is my beetle I got for Mother's Day this year. My hubby is going to fix her up for me. She is a '65. Jeremy, my husband pulled her frame off the floor pan tonight......
And he thinks she is going to be WAY MORE WORK THEN HE THOUGHT. But I still want him to try to save her. She is so cute .....and ....rusty.
Here is her little shell body. The work begins... for Jeremy.
I stitched up 4 of my advent calendar days today. I love how they are turning out.
And I tried a little machine quilting with the gloves....it is easier with the gloves on.

Beetle quilt is finished

I finally finished the beetle/bug quilt. I think I started it in June 2oo7. It is a costume order for a couple who collect the real thing, VW beetles. I like how it turned out. My favorite is the pink/orange convertible on the left.

Measurements: 36 X 41 1/2 ins.
