Since I'm just sitting here....

I am waiting for my 2nd favorite man to appear at my door...
The UPS man!
I am waiting for some fabric that is essential to a WIP.
It looks like I'll be twiddling my thumbs until Monday.
Darn you Fabric.com!
I love your prices but your shipping takes forrrrreeeeevvvveeerrr!

So I guess I'll work on my Easy Christmas Blankets while I wait.


I bought the cutest flannel sheets from Garnet Hill!
One for the front and one for the back.

I'm drawing a very simple grid for quilting with my favorite washable Crayola's.
And I'm using a 6oz. loft batting so these blankets will be oh so fluffy!

Last year I made the quilt pictured below for  this newly started tradition.


But for some reason I just hated it!
So this year the I am offering up the fluffiest, coziest, warmest blanket for the nightly prize!
Let the good behavior begin!


p.s. Target also had some super cute Flannel Sheets too.

  4. Cute, cute blog. Perhaps I said that last time I was in??
    Your sewing reminds me I need to snap-to and work on the pillows I'm making for my upcoming show. Eeeeee.

    Have a great rest of your week!
