Little Brandon Michael has arrived, born on June 12, 2008. He weighed in at 4 pounds 6 ozs...(6 weeks early) 17 1/2 inches long. Just a little peanut. He is doing great. Has not had any problem at all. Hopefully he will be able to come home in a few weeks. He is a sweetie and a cutie. You can see for yourself here are some pics. First pictures are a few hours old. then up to last one at three days old.

CQ things I have been working on

Here a couple of pics of some items I have been working on. The one block is for a round robin, theme is summer garden. I added the bird house before I sent it off on it journey. The other pic is for the round robin purple color study. I did the purple pansey flower onthe dark purple fabric. and the two seams below it.

Spring Winter what season is it???

We thought Spring was here but Mother Nature decided otherwise.

All the snow was gone, we

were just waiting for the ice to go out on the lake. The first pic is the view from camp of Lake Kabtogama, ice is still on the lake. The next picture is from this weekend. We recvieved around a foot of the white stuff...wont say that four letter word...LOL..

Green Color Study Block

This is Tami's block I worked on for a Round Robin Color Study in Green. I added the Button cluster on the right and the seam to the left of the button cluster. I also added the seam treatment on the left top, The Maiden hair stitches with green beads for flowers. I really enjoyed working on this block, the layout and the colors Tami chose go very well together.

New York

These are some pics from a recent trip to NYC...This was my first time there. I only had a few hours in the evening, but this what I saw. The Empire State Building (lines were too long to go to the top next time maybe) Time Square...The M&M Store..Rockefeller Center..I got to ride ont he subway three times..That was an experince I wont forget...LOL..I even got a metro card..It was great..I will go back again, I think...LOL..

Color Study in Purple

In my CQfor Newbies group, we are doing a color study in purple. This is a block I recently worked on. I added the purple sprider roses. This is the first time I tried to make them. It was very easy, dont know why I havent done them sooner..LOL..We are suppose to be only using items that are purple to embellish the block. the lace and some thread look white in the pic, but they are a light lavendar. This is a very pretty block and I enjoyed working on it.
