Schnitzel & Boo mini quilt swap

This was my first venture to participate in a mini quilt swap hosted by Kristi. Yesterday I got my surprise quilt all the way from Idaho . I love it... a house with a laundry line quilted with my favorite prints. Lots of text matched with Tula Pink fabric for the cross borders and an extra Anna Marie Horner stash of fabric. It's beginning to look like Christmas!

 Thank you Heather from the Quilt Barn, Idaho.

Keep me warm

I couldn't stop sewing doll and teddy bear mini quilts.

 Instant gratification in a day - one after the other for a fundraiser overseas. 

Every teddy and doll should be tucked under a blanket!

I remember that I had a Steiff bear as a child - I still have it,  slightly disfigured after

 our Golden Retriever took it for his new toy.

Here are a few of the mini quilts. They all have a soft backing to cuddle your cuties.

Each quilt has his own zipper bag with a fuzzy cut fabric stamp.

Bon Voyage!

Dance of the Jellyfish

If you are planning to visit Toronto don't miss the just recently opened Ripley's Aquarium of Canada

next to the CN Tower.

Meadow quilt

My meadow quilt arrived from Idaho.

 That 's when you want to hug the mailman and you can't wait to open the box.

Lizzy, from Lizzyhouse was teaching this class back in July. She recommended Jo from supposecreatedelight and she did a beautiful quilting job !

I will snuggle up in the quilt and this won't leave the house!

Hello Kitty ! Happy Halloween

George Brown College of Esthetics hosted today a fundraiser for " The United Way " dedicating their time with many young and talented make-up artists to get ready for Halloween.

Pick and choose your face from scary to cute.

My pick was a cat face - not the cute kitty face you know.

Jeffrey, who did my make-up was amazing and here is my transformation ...

First time long! yes long eyelashes!

and this is the team 

 Thanks again!

Happy Halloween!

Dew mornings

I left my camera overnight in my car which is not a good idea. The lens was all fogged up but with the morning dew it had the right effect. I am back into my sewing mode and will post soon some of my projects on the go. There are times I have so many ideas floating in my head but nothing is put down into action. I hope it will happen soon - you can rush it.

Country Landscapes

This photo was take with my iphone and filters were applied. But by late fall the sky turns purple and the old farmer's wife called her little paradise  " Purple Hills".
