To make this more complicated, I don't own a sewing machine. And may never own a sewing machine.
Honestly sewing machines terrify me. And they are expensive. But mostly I'm afraid of them. I have never been able to figure out how to use them without constantly having to fix something. Not to mention they are loud. And expensive. And did I mention they are scary?
So I sew everything by hand. Yep, everything. That doesn't mean I am an expert though. But I figure that will come with age.
And to make matters worse, I'm a Pinterestholic...remember? It's truly an addiction. If Pinterest had its way, I would have enough quilts to keep the world warm.
My brain is fried so I figured I would show you some of the blocks I have put together. If you are a quilter looking at these, please don't get upset. Remember I am a beginner...and I'm doing it all by hand!

| Cross |
 |
| Pinwheel |
 |
| One of my early efforts...you can tell because they are a little uneven (and the left one isn't sewn together)! |
OK so the next couple aren't really part of a quilt but hey they wanted to be shown off as well.

| Pillows I had to make for Cody...plain but comfy! |

| One side of a tablet case for Cody |

| Other side of a tablet case for Cody |
And now back to the grind...and by grind I mean playing with piglets and waiting for some piglets to be born! I have a gilt (first time mama) I'm waiting on pigs from. I wish I had brought some sewing with me!!
Guess I will have to study and wait for nature to take its course!

| OK, everybody needs some piglets to get them by :) |
HAPPY SUNDAY!
