Chugging right along on the blog!

It seems to be going okay in blog land.  I got my pictures to work, and a gadget to work and I linked to another site in a small pic on the side bar.  Whaaa YOOO!!  glad I am finally getting the hang of it, because it really was cutting into my sewing time and I just could not have that.

Raw Edge Circle Qult - came out nice!!

This is the raw edge circle quilt I had gotten inspiration from Cluck Cluck Sew. Boy was it fun to do and it came out pretty nice.  Here are a couple of pictures to share with you.  Hope you like my efforts, this is way out of my comfort zone in quilting. 

Got the pics to work!! Yee Ha!:)

Well, it finally worked.  Got the pics to load into flicker and post to my page.  Now all I have to do is upload a lot of pics.  This blog has started to take up a lot of my time, it is cramping my quilting style.  I have to say blogging is fun, but I feel like I get  a lot more accomplished when I quilt. 

I am a bit frustrated with all the designing.  Will keep at it for now, but will see how it goes.

adding links is a chalenge

I just spent about 2 hours trying to add a link to Burnt Wood Bears.  I did it because it works. But I wanted it on my sidebar as a small pick that you click on.  Oh well, back to the insructions.  Maybe tomorrow I will do better.

Quilts for Kids - lots of fun to do!

I have been making baby quilts lately, not too sure why. They make up quickly and its fun to send them off to someone who really needs them.  The place I get the kits is amazing, Quilts for Kids, sends an entire kit for free no less.  Never expected a free kit.  But there it came to my door, worked up in a day from start to finish.  All they asked is that I send one of my own back with it.  So I did. Had a lot of fun too.  Here are are a couple I have done.

I made this in the winter of 2009.  Came out beautifully. 

My first blog!!

Wow that was pretty easy!   I am now a blogger I guess.  Not sure what to write but I guess this will be enough.  I will have to figure out how to post pictures next.

See you next time!!
