Happy Saint Patrick's Day!


Hope everyone has a fabulous Saint Patrick's Day! Be sure to drink lots of green beer and eat yummy corned beef & cabbage :)

We had a great weekend with lots of visitors, including this coyote! My cousin came up for a few days, and snapped this shot when she arrived...he was hanging out in our driveway, ready to greet her :) I stole this shot from her blog...but there are a few more photos there if you want to check it out. Mostly we power lounged, but there was also some creative work going on too...

For example, this dance belt that i made Jordyn...sorry for the blurry shot...she was busy spinning :) I still want to add some bling to it...perhaps some shiny coins, or some jingly bells...but for the most part its complete.

I also finished one of the February BOM squares from Ellies website...it didnt come out that great, im still learning as far as applique goes, and these hearts came out a bit crooked, but i have two more to make, so i imagine with more practice, my skills will improve :)
Cheers~

Jordyn's dance belt looks perfect (and goes so well with her outfit!) The addition of some blong would make it even better! The hearts are fine, and show all the effort you've put into them.

Sorry. Don't put any blong on the belt, just sparkly stuff! (Typing error, not brain error!)

Love the belt! She is going to have fun with that.

You are being to hard on yourself and your applique. The block is beautiful.

Your block looked great, be kind to yourself. And Jordyn's dance belt is adorable, she looks like she is really having a good time with it!!
