Honolulu Night Market

I know I said I was done with craft fairs for the season but I have a chance to be in an amazing market on Saturday.

I've been sewing a few new things for it and working on three custom quilts that I need to deliver next Saturday.

Plus there's still regular life, school, cookie parties, ice skating (tomorrow) and as always, laundry :-)

Yep, I am regretting piling so much on my plate this year - but I'm getting it done and trying to enjoy the season as I do it!

And I have great helpers - my two oldest baked all those cookies and are vacuuming the house as I type this.

And my wonderful hubby - dang I love him.

I got home from the last craft fair to this:

(he said that stands for Head Over Heels For You)

I have been wanting one of those new coffee makers from Starbucks and he bought me one :-)

Now I can have my own lattes at home whenever I want (and yes, so far I love it - just wish they sold the pods at Costco).

ok I'm off to sew.........I'll post the Lunden Designs winners on Monday!

Lunden Designs + Fabricworm Giveaway

Melissa from Lunden Designs has been hard at work creating more stunning quilts.

I got to test a few of her patterns  a while back - mine are still in block stage but I cannot wait to finish them!

Here are her 4 new patterns:

I tested Grand Junction:

and Northern Exposure (I cannot wait to make a cute baby boy quilt out of this one):

Melissa's patterns are really great - they come with paper templates and well-written instructions to help you through each step.

We have two giveaway prizes today.

First prize is for the Flag Day pattern and a bundle of Set Sail from Fabricworm! How fun right?!

Second prize is a set of these four patterns by Lunden Designs.

So leave a comment letting me what gifts you are making this Christmas season (and if you aren't making any, you can tell me what you are hoping to get instead).

I'll pick the winners next week!!

Comments are now closed!
