A Work Day....

I love Thursdays....everyone is gone and I have a quiet house.  I usually get up about 5:00 am...the boy {my husband} gets up about 4:30 am to get his shower....so at about 5:00 I drag my bag of bones out of the bed and down to the coffee pot. 

Once everyone is gone...I do a little jig and get going.

This morning the Strawberry Fields got me cookin'....

After some deliberation over the cutting instructions....I have a few blocks beginning to look like they belong in a quilt....

I love this fabric!!!  It is Flower Sugar by Lecien.   Very Spring- y....

And I think I have decided that this Strawberry Fields quilt should be re-named Tea Party Quilt...

It is turning out to be a very feminine quilt ....

Delicate Lace....by Hokkoh....

So - of course - in honor of the Tea Party quilt....I had to make Blueberry Muffins :)

YUM!!!!

A girl has to keep her strength up....you know.....

I hope you are having a lovely Thursday....maybe I will have some blocks all sewn together to show you soon {and yes the pickle-dish is almost all quilted}....

Flanders and I wish you a happy Thursday!!!

Weak in the Knees.....

I've been waiting for the remainder of my Strawberry Fields {quilt} fabric to arrive....Oh GOODNESS....does fabric ever make you as giddy as a school girl, weak in the knees, and an all-around blithering fool???

Hokkoh Heaven.....

My favorite little fabric shoppe....and the place I spend many hours with the most delightful people....just continues to stock their shelves with absolutely irresistible fabric....

Such as this adorable Tea Party line designed by Hokkoh....

The colors are so clear and the prints are simply charming....

So while I am working on a couple other little projects, and working out the details for the Eloise Quilt....I am going to begin another from the Material Obsession book....what a surprise, right???

This is Strawberry Fields and, to me, it just calls for these fantastic Hokkoh fabrics...plus a few others....I can't wait to get started!!!
