I get around.

The Modern Quilt Guild blog featured my Spectrum Half Square Triangles quilt this week. How's that for making me feel cool? There is so much awesome inspiration to be found at the MQG blog.  I felt starstruck at the thought of one of my quilts deemed worthy to hang out there. Thank you again, Elizabeth.

Also, last week my simple pennant tutorial was featured at the Land of Nod blog. Fun times.

That's all.  I'm currently working on an etsy shop update for this week. It's return of the i-spy kits + some serious de-stashing. Stay tuned.
