patchwork napkins!

Well that was a quick break, right?

Actually, this is just a quick post to let you know that I have a new tutorial for patchwork napkins available. It’s posted today on Sew Mama Sew, so if you haven’t already been over there, head on over and take a look! Be sure to check out all the other wonderful scrap projects as well!

a blogging break

I need a little break. It turns out that blogging can be hard work, and while I usually really enjoy it, I’m currently in a bit of a blogging funk, and that certainly doesn’t make for interesting reading. Unfortunately there can be some negative ramifications that come with putting your work online. Usually I try not to let those parts of blogging bother me, but lately it’s been getting to me. I know I’m not the first to feel this way, nor will I be the last, and I’m hoping that a little break might be just the ticket.

WIP

I can’t leave you without a photo, so here’s a shot of what I’ll be working on – trying to get all 49 of these blocks sewn together into a quilt top, without completely losing track of the order! I even went so far as to label them… we’ll see if that helps!
