January Completed

-

If you are looking for the Blog Hop Giveaway click HERE!

January was a busy month for me even if I spent from the 10th to the 27th offline. Most importantly my youngest daughter delivered a happy healthy baby girl, Zoey Renee, completing their family of three. Mommy, daddy and baby are all doing great but I do miss them so much.

I am participating in the 2013 NewFO Challenge @ Cat Patches Linky Party

I was in delivery for Zoey! Does that count as a start/finish?

I started and finished this little quilt!

Lots of Pouches!

1. Dare To Dresden pouch giveaway, 2. Grow Your Blog pouch giveaway, 3. Owl pouch, 4. Type/Metro Pouch Back, 5. Type/Metro Pouch front

A dog bed and toys for Ollie!

(12) Burp rags

I crochet this rug, (2) dishcloths and knitted (1) baby and (2) children's hats!



For February, I will be doing my blocks for Skill Builder BOM. I love Robert Kaufman Kona Solids and will be using all these colors in one block called Soundwave!

I plan to link up with 2013 NewFO Challenge @ Cat Patches Linky Party. See you at the end of February with all my starts and hopefully some finishes. Forever Creating Something, Lisa

    Hi Lisa,
    I think that counts as a start and a finish!Congratulations to you and your family on the birth of the lovely Zoey Renee. I love this little quote so I'm passing it on to you... 'Whenever a little child is born, all night a soft wind rocks the corn and a little flower opens her face to the sun'. Anon

    Oh I cracked up at your picture of Baby Zoe on the link-up page. I'd say that counts. Good job getting some sewing done even with a little one in the house.

    Of course you had to pick the birth announcement post of your grand daughter! Zoey is adorable! Congratulations on your new title of grandma. I love your pattern for your burp cloths. Your pouches are so nice and the little blankie for Zoey too!

Cartwright Seam Ripper Giveaway

Welcome my friends and those who maybe visiting for the first time! Today, I am so excited to introduce you to a true West Virginian Artesian, Greg Cartwright , of Cartwright's Creations . His items are sold in historical shops throughout West Virginia. He is a lover of reclaimed wood of historical nature and creator of works of art! Greg (Cartwright's Creations) & I A note from Greg Dear Readers I have provided two seam rippers to Lisa so she can have one and one to give away. They are both made from beautiful old growth oak which was reclaimed from the original train depot in Weston (Lewis County), West Virginia. Train service was established in Weston around 1880. This wood is representative of a great part of my passion for this venture in woodworking for me – that is finding wood with a story to it. I must admit that my main focus is pens and pencils but it really doesn’t matter what I am making as long as it is from wood (although I have recently added pens...

Update This Giveaway is closed! And the winner is ... #105 gpc March 5, 2014 at 12:13 PM I follow your blog! :) Think Ruffles Blog Hop Welcome to "In The Boon Docks" and Day 1 of the "Think Ruffles Blog Hop"! My name is Lisa and I am so happy you are here today to see my quilt with ruffles! I have to thank Madam Samm @ Sew We Quilt and Amy (Head Cheerleader)@ Sew Incredibly Crazy for arranging this great hop! What is a ruffle? There are lots of different kinds and Madam Samm left it open to interpretation. She showed us how to make some and at the time I was thinking; ruffled bloomers, ruffled dresses, ruffled pillows. Then I saw a quilt in a magazine with what looked like ruffles! I kind of browsed through the issue of Quilt-it today , March/April 2014 issue and left it in my rocking chair and went to work. The second time I read the "Garden Path" pattern by Ann Baxter, (I had already made the quilt), it read "ruching", you don...
