MY VERY FIRST QUILT BLOCK!


Well here it is!!!!!! My very first quilt block. I must say I am VERY proud of

it. Thank you so much MM for helping me do this block! I enjoyed doing it with

you. It was work but I enjoyed doing it. I of course picked a hard block to do.
I am glad I did it because I know that if I would have chosen the other choice
I wouldn't of been happy with my finished product. I cannot wait to
put the whole entire quilt together!!! That is going to be VERY exciting to
see. We watched Evan Almighty today and it was sooooooo cute! Anyone who
reads this GO AND WATCH IT!!!! Lol. Well today has been a looooong day so I will go
for now. Ta-ta,

3 tiered skirts~

Well Today Tiffany a woman from our homeschooling group came over with her kids to teach us how to make three tiered skirts. One of her daughters came wearing her skirt and it was the cutest thing. I was REALLY excited for Lauren. Mom made Lauren's skirt this time and Rachel and I are going to make ours another time. Mom learned how to do everything so I guess we will be learning from her. I took care of Kate while Mom learned how to do it. I checked in with her now and then to see how it was going. She did SUCH a good job!! I was VERY proud of her since it was her first time using a sewing machine. She said I AM SO NERVOUS! HeeHee! That's exactly what I said when I first used one. We are SO SO SO the same! Anyway, Mom didn't finish the skirt completely but you could see how good it was coming along. She had already made about three tiers when I came in and looked at it. It was sooooooo cute! She picked out some pretty blue and blue floral print. It is going to look so cute on Lauren when it is finished. Tiffany took it home with her so that she could finish it. Mom was ALMOST done but Tiffany had to go so they decided to let her take it home with her to finish it. I cannot wait to make one for myself they are totally to DIE FOR!!!!!!!!!!!
