My day started off with taking our sweet Duchess to the vet to have a spot checked out.  All is well with our sweet girl.  While I was out I did some thrifting.   I found a feed sack oh yes a whole one  and a cuttable piece of chenille.  You are never going to believe what else I found.   Yes another quilt top but this time it is a Dresden plate quilt.  It had a really nice price tag.  Just could not leave it behind.  Just love bargain's.   I have not had a chance to take a picture of it yet.  


.

I have been making other things but I can not show you yet.  They are for gifts and my friends read my blog.   I am a little behind on making my Valentine gifts.  Got a little caught up today.  My goal is to get some things out into tomorrow's mail.  All I have to remember is that the post office here closes at 11:00.  
Hope everyone is having a great evening.

Hugs
donna

  14. Always fun to drop by your blog too, it's so darn cute, and see what you are up to. Retro Sewing, now that I can relate to I love it. I saw the booklet on another post!! I have really put my quilting aside with all this fashion I'm into now.

  15. You are busy as usual. I got a quilt back pieced yesterday and I need to pin baste the whole thing together today. I am in a spring cleaning frenzy because I have all four of my children and their significant others coming on Thursday and I am out-of-town all week. Last day for baseboards and such.
