I hope you had a fantastic holiday weekend, for those that had a bit of time off of work. It has been spectacular here - lots of sewing, catching up on stuff around the house, visiting friends, dining with family and general laziness around here.
You might see the general laziness sticking to this post...I just can't get myself organized enough to give you a glimpse of my sewing right now, so I thought I'd fill you in on the other scattered bits and pieces over the past few days.
In super happy news, my charms from Jenn's polka dot charm swap arrived. They're super! Isn't it funny how you look at the prints in flickr and you know exactly what you are going to receive, but when they arrive they are a million times better in real life?
In other news, Fluffy Sheep Quilting and friends made the Spring 2012 issue of the Irish Patchwork Society's news letter. Now, I know it's not like my quilts are appearing in some super fab publication, but still it was a nice surprise to see my quilts featured.
Now I'm wishing I wore something a bit cuter, but there I am in my little white shirt and blue jumper with jeans. There's Mod Logs in the upper left, Rhonda's rockin' Christmas table runner in the bottom left and Lattice Illusions in the bottom right. How fun! Next time I'll dig a bit deeper into the closet before the Society meeting :)
Finally...and I wish I had a photo for this...Stargazing is winging its way to Trudi to be quilted. I am so super duper excited about the swirly design we have agreed on. I hope it arrives at her place soon!

Wow! Lots of good stuff happening. Can't wait to see what Trudi does with your stars.
NOTHING wrong with having a rest and spending time with family xx
I'd be staying in my PJs sewing all day and every day if I could!
I wouldnt have thought that digging deep into the closet for a society meeting would be advisable... ;-)
So exciting that stargazing is getting quilted - its going to be so cool.
Oh how exciting!!! I love seeing my runner in print! THanks. I have been playing with Callee all weekend. such a fun holiday.
I've been pretty productive considering the egg hunting n'all!
Can't wait to see Trudi working her magic!
Woohoo, glad the charms made it! I can't wait to see stargazing along with everyone else and congrats with the publication, every bit helps and it's so exciting!!
Those charms are soooo pretty! I can`t see you very well in the photos - boo - but great to be in print!
Sure, can't pass up a bit of wining and dining around ;o)
Enjoy the charms, mine are still swimming their way here...
Yay for the feature too, we can say we knew you when... :oD
Oh man. I forgot about the scrap swap.....oh how a long weekend makes you lazy.
well done on the feature too.
Love those charms! I've been searching the high seas for polka dot prints, soooo lucky! Congratulations on the feature! =D
Gotta love a stash of spots!! And you look really cute in your jeans, white shirt and blue jumper! But I guess they were ooohing and aaahing over the wonderful quilty bits!
Congratulations - how exciting for you.
