Emily!!!

Emily said... "You're amazing Erin! How are you doing all this with your kids? Great Job! "

 

Congratulations Emily!!  Emily is actually a friend of mine who quilts but I knew her before I even started quilting.  She has amazing taste and always makes the most adorable things.  She recently made a baby quilt for a friend of ours that I was drooling over-- she just always finds the cutest fabrics.  I don't have a picture of it but it was made using charm squares from the Moda Hullabaloo line. Very CUTE!

 

And Emily, the key phrase is "doing all this with your kids"... cause I usually DO have to do it WITH my kids.  My sewing room is by the kids' playroom so that helps.  I also have a closet in my sewing room that has a bunch of workbooks, stickers, crafts that they can do in there with me.  The youngest was taking a lot naps, but he is starting to be awake more, so it certainly does cut into quilting time!   I have some extra time these days now that school is in session, so that affords me some free time.  Emily has 5 children so she knows that doing anything for yourself while kids are around is definitely hard.  However, I think it is important for kids to be able to play independently at times and see that their mom likes to do things that aren't ALL about them.  Still, I wish I had more time to do the things I love, but there is a time and season for everything!

Congratulations again to Emily and ALL of the winners!!!!  Thanks to everyone that joined in to be a follower!!

Thanks Leanne and congratulations!  I was happy when the number 5 came up on the 5th day of the giveaways, plus it is also my favorite number... all the stars aligned for this one I guess!

Leanne has a great blog to show off all her skills... one of my most favorite things she has done is her wall hanging for her Love of Solids partner (please be me, please be me!).

Congratulations Tiffany!  Tiffinay blogs over at This Crafty Fox.  She has the most adorable sprocket pillows made from Riley Blake's Rainy Days and Mondays line that I am simply in love with!  I also LOVE the quilt that she made for a Father's Day gift.  It is so awesome!!  I love this simplicity of it, how it shows off the fabrics, that it is MASCULINE.  Making a quilt like this has been on my radar for awhile and I just loved looking over her blog for inspiration! Congratulations Tiffany!  I will send you your fabric at the end of the giveaways and when I get your address!!

Congratulations Mary!  Mary is actually a member of several of the bees that I am in so I am excited to know that such a great person is receiving this first giveaway!!
