Fabric, One of the Love's of My Life

  Hope everyone has had a nice day, enjoying the things you like most. I've been so busy working with fabric most of the day. Seems funny to see empty shelves, but Lori's will be full.
  
  I plan to move all of my sewing "stuff " in, so it will soon be filled again, I've already moved  in a few things. My fabric stash is unbelievable, so many books and patterns. I might even get to use my Accuquilt Go, so much, so little time. :)
   
   I keep looking at new fabric collections... why??? I'm hooked on fabric... how many of us are? I placed a small order, my excuse is I don't want to lose my accounts. :) I have some of it listed on my Crafters Cottage Page on Facebook. Hope to sell some craft items, along with a small amount of fabric and etc.

 This has been a big change for me, I've had a shop and website for so long, but I want to sew and did find time today to sew for a while.

  Funny, how every so often our lives change and we move on to something else, I'm just backtracking to one of my other Love's, Sewing.

  
Be Happy,
Elaine

Star Quilt Blocks on My Mind....

   Have had a busy day, like most everybody else, had Star Quilt Blocks     on my mind, so thought I would write for a few minutes. My favorite Star Block is the Martha Washington Star, but have made several different one's, just don' have pictures. Guess I better get busy and take some. The picture I have for now is a 6" version of a Friendship Star. I have some of them done in Miniature, but need to look for them, with all the moving around... their here somewhere. :) 
           Hope everyone has had a nice dayI'm going to go watch a little TV and crochet or stuff cats. Sounds real exciting, I should be finishing some UFO's... but that may take a few more years.

      
          Never got this finished last night, Have had AJ this morning, as Angie had some errands to run. He likes being outside, am glad it is a nice day. Guess I need to go again and do some other things, hopefully more about Star Blocks later.

         This is a Scrappy Frindship Star Block, hope you like it eas much as I do.

 Have a great rest of the day,
Elaine

Where in the World Have I Been?

       Its been an exciting two weeks,I have traveled all over Google Land, trying to post a Blog. HaHa! Today I'm writing in a new format they have or something. Anyway, I was so tired traveling I was ready to give up.
      
    Getting on to other things is fabulous! We had a very nice Easter and I hope all of you did too. The day goes by so fast, but it was great being with the kids.

    I hope to get some Cats cut out before the day is over. I don't get as much done as I would like, to many interuptions.:) Oh well, tomorrow is another day.

    So glad to be writing, hope this works out, if it does will be back soon,

Smiles, Elaine
