Good and Fun- a Round Robin

*sigh*
I am always late these days.
ALMOST caught up though!
Here is my center for the Good and Fun Round Robin. I actually originally wanted the center stripes to be slanted, but as I started piecing them together I realized how horrible my math was and that if I did, not only would I be wasting alot of fabric, but it would be alot more work than I planned! I ended up just trimming it to a decent sized rectangle, but I actually love how it turned out.

Now that my center is different than what I envisioned/planned I am even MORE excited to see what Julie and the other gals come up with! AND don't worry, I included PLENTY PLENTY PLENTY of extra fabric to be played with :)

And on a side note/off topic, those of you who follow along know that I recently moved across town. Well, now I am moving across country. In two weeks. *gasp* When it rains it pours, right? The good news is that once I get home to Chicago, everything will settle down quite a bit. I'll be working less, be back in school, and surrounded by family. I can't wait :) BUT that means this next week I am going to be a sewing fiend to try to get everything I can done, not only this month, but also for March! Wish me luck :)

It's done! (FNSI Results!)

Well, my Friday Night Sew-In turned into a Saturday morning sew-in, due to some unexpected houseguests last night, but I have finished up all the goodies that are going along with my pillow for the Pillow Talk Swap!
There's the pillow, a mug rug, a drawstring bag (I used this tutorial--so fast and easy!), and some leftover triangles cut by my Go! Cutter for my partner to use however they see fit! Believe it or not, ALL of these were made using less than a fat quarter of each of the prints!

Now I am not sure if I am more excited to receive my own pillow or for my partner to receive hers! Making a trip to the post office on Monday! Should be a nice Christmas surprise for her :)

Pretty Fabric :)

As if I needed any more reasons to love the mail lady...
I am now definitely addicted to the "Stash Builder Bundles" at Imagine Fabric. I'm sure you can understand why :)
I ♥ Joel Dewberry!
Judi, of Green Fairy Quilts, also helps me spend all my paychecks ;) (Have you seen the examples of her long arm quilting? *sigh* When I do get around to making a LARGE quilt, I don't know who I would want to send the first quilt to, Judi or Natalia of Piece N Quilt. Both ladies are AMAZING!)

Pillowtalk Finish!

I am all done with my partner's pillow! I quilted it using not-so-straight lines throughout all the grey sections. I didn't want to ruin the beautiful prints! The gray is a Kona Cotton, but I don't remember which one, I think it was medium gray. I also made a little mug rug to go with it, and will hopefully whip up one or two more goodies to include in the package. Other than that, it will be on its way to its new home soon!

Although, hubby says I should just keep it here ;)
