Holy Cow-I know my mom has said she misses my blog but I didn't realize it has been over a year!!  Where did it go?  I will tell you there was not a whole lot of sewing going on that is for sure!  That Red & White all over quilt is still a UFO and in progress.  I am happy to say though it is together and needs the papers torn off the back from the Gazillion 1/2 square triangles.  If I never do a 1/2 square triangle again I might just be alright!  But being my mother's daughter (with a VERY strong shopping gene) not sewing did not meant not buying fabric!!  So when I do get the room up and running I will have PLENTY of projects!

We are no longer Blogging from Central PA-we are now in Central Ohio and the sewing room changed from a great space with natural light and built in bookcases to a corner in the basement with great potential!  I am excited about the space and all it has to offer, I just need to find the time to set it up.  I get to organize from the ground up: flooring, cabinets, shelving....all of it!!

Last winter I actually was spending too much in the sewing by myself after working long hours so I taught myself how to knit and crochet so that I could at least be in the living room.  I love it!!!  I have made felted bowls, a felted purse, a cupcake hat for my cutie pie niece, a pumpkin hat for my cutie pie nephew, place mats....It is never ending!

I am hoping dusting off the blog will inspire me to get moving on the room or do something creative-I miss it and just don't know where to start.
