M.I.A.......

Ugh!  I have been so durn busy this week....sometimes I have felt like I am just spinning my wheels (ever felt like that ?)....
I have done some shopping, some Christmas present making, and puttering away at the pickle-dish, and to top it all off....a baby shower gift....for NEXT WEEK!!!  Yikes!
For the baby shower I am working on a Pinwheel Quilt with the lovely Cloud 9 fabrics...from the best shoppe in Central Ohio....
Love these fat little elephants!
I do love this pickle-dish...even though it seems never-ending...I wish I had an entire day to just sit and work on it...maybe next week...huh?
Some of my time this past week was spent bonding with my new LOVE....my husband decided a new machine would make a great Christmas gift....who am I to argue?????
So I decided to upgrade from my MC6600 to the new Horizon 7700!!!!  YAY!  I really like the 6600 and could not imagine liking anything more, but this is quickly becoming my new best friend....

It is huge....a clear advantage for pushing a big quilt through....I love the free motion on this machine....thank you Mr. M!!!
Hi Ho, Hi Ho....it's off to work I go!!!!
