Christmas in August Sewing Party!

445pm update...

I'm just starting to sew - between now and the next party I'm going to get me a sign that says 'NO BOYS ALLOWED!'  LOL!  Anyhoo, my DH wants to install a new router so just in case something happens, I might not be able to do an update until it's running - whenever that is.  Hope to be back soon...PARTY ON!

2PM update...

Just finished cutting (FINALLY), I went ahead and cut out a second set of background fabric for the 2nd Decoy quilt I do.  So, I put Viggo on pause and helped my guys bring in the groceries...

 

You know FALL is coming when you find pumpkin stuff at the store!!!!  I LOVE FALL!  Ok, my guys plan to grill burgers for dinner so after smoozing with them for a little bit, I'm going to start to sew.  Hope everyone is having a good time...

Arrival time 930am...

 

When Kelly first mentioned this event, I went to the calendar and marked it...AND made a special announcement to my guys that on the 28th I was spending it ALL DAY with the girls! LOL!  So this is what I'll be working on...

And just a little shout out to - VIGGO MORTENSEN (and Patrick)...God Bless America!   What a BABE!!! LOL!  Oh, and I just love how Kelly is using Mr. Linky for all of us to post our updates on so we don't have to surf everyone's blog to see if they updated - GREAT idea Kelly!

LET'S PARTY!!!!

Spring Sewing Party!

UPDATE @ 1115PM

DONE! WHOHOOOOO!! I had to put in Transformers to get me in the mood to finish this top.  I think the butt kicking music in the movie, helped me put it into high gear.  I LOVE this pattern & it makes me more anxious for Boutique to get here so I can make it with this pattern.  What a night! What a party! Thank you - Kelly & Joan for throwing an AWESOME party!

UPDATE @ 815PM

So, I knew I should not have put in Dirty Dancing.  30 minutes into the movie, I had to drape a pillowcase in front of the screen! Who could focus with Patrick on the screen?  I spent a good part of my time: pressing, cutting, checking email, gabbing with Cindy (she is a HOOT!) - back and forth about Patrick & CHOCOLATE!  And there were more than a few times I had to define INVISIBLE to my son.  So FINALLY, I am now able to sew.  I'm loving the chunky pattern!  Sorry for the so-so picture...

UPDATE @ 215PM

I've finally made it!!! WHOOHOOOO! I'm late but that's ok because it's going to be a long night!!!!!! So here is what I will be working on for the party...

Now I just need to figure out which 5-6 fabrics to use for this EASY & AWESOME pattern. The iron is heating up....I will be checking everyone else out.  Oh, and I just started Dirty Dancing...Patrick was such a talented actor and he was nice on the eyes...WHATEVER?!?!?!! HE WAS HOT! Thank you God for bringing him into the world!

UPDATE 2/27/10 @ 1015AM
 For the love of Mary, I forgot that we have to go to town to take care of some stuff.  I hope to be back by noon so I can show you my pattern and fabric.  See y'all in a little bit!!!
