I have this wonderful assortment of fabrics...yet another collection calling to me. I'm nearly finished adding the borders to the Love Birds Applique' quilt, and already, I'm itchy to start another.Perhaps, I should find out if there is a vaccination for this affliction? I know it doesn't help to just lie down and hope that "it" goes away. The feeling never passes. I love sewing. I love creating quilts. I love the color play of fabrics. I could roll around in them all day. Well, maybe not roll. I'd have to refold everything...and get the dog hair off them...and rearrange the cabinets, color coordinated and all... No, I don't really mean roll, but you get the idea.
This is the pattern that came in the kit with all those gorgeous fabrics. I'm really loving Hartfield, the quilt. I know I'll have to add this project to my list. Gee. I guess I need to make a list. You know, a schedule so I know which one I'll be working on next. Would that be too...oh, I don't know...anal? Should I be more spontaneous? I guess I'll just try lying down again for a while. I'll let you know if it helps.
Time for me to reveal the name I drew for the Vanilla Extract.The Winner of my Vanilla Extract Giveaway is...

Congratulations, Natalie!
Your vanilla will be on its way next week!
I you haven't visited Natalie's blog before, you need to stop over and explore. I recently found out that Natalie is my partner in the Victorian Cuff Swap and I'm currently creating my cuff for her. She is a seamstress extraordinaire...and a pretty lass to boot! Click on her name above to stop in and say "hello".
My sister, Diana and I had contemplated putting a little of my vanilla into a small bottle for everyone who left a comment, but as the numbers grew, we knew it might get a little expensive to do. I really wish that I could have shared this with each and every one of you for leaving such kind and thoughtful messages for me. I hope you're all able to make a bit of your own vanilla from my tutorial, and that you might think of it as a gift from my heart to yours.
