No sewing except in my head...and a WIN!

No sewing this week due to babysitting...cleaning...company coming..  I did do some quilt dreaming and I ordered some fabric online.  Had to stay sane somehow, didn't I?   But the BIG NEWS is I won a Lil' Twister Template Tool from a giveaway Jackie sponsored over at the Canton Village Quilt Works blog.  It hasn't arrived yet (maybe tomorrow)  but I can't wait to try it.  Jackie has made some beautiful things with the template shown here!

Because I should have a picture in my post, I'll show you something my daughter made to take to college 10 years ago.  (Seriously?  It's been 10 years?)  I believe this is her first quilt.  (The photo was taken with an old camera under flourescent lighting.  Bleh.)  I love it that she sews!



:o)

So glad that you won the Lil' Twister!! I am looking forward to seeing what you will make with it... at first I thought that the quilt in the photo is what you would be using to cut up with the Lil' Twister. Whew! That would be a big one!! You will probably have it in hand tomorrow.
