To me,
the most wonderful time of the year…
is when the sun is streaming into my sewing room,
BEFORE 6 a.m.!!!
Unfortunately, I won’t be sewing today…
I’m finishing up kits, getting ready to meet new
& not so new quilting friends
at the Kansas City Regional Quilt Festival tomorrow.
I believe there are still a few spots left in my
Dresden Love quilting class at KCRQF.
Now back to packing things up.
I hope you can join us!
Just Keep Sunning,
I mean Sewing…

It’s a beautiful sunny morning here!
It makes it easy to get up & start to work when the sun is streaming through my sewing room windows.
Did I mention that I’ll be vending at the Kansas City Festival for Quilters next week?
If you’re in the vicinity you should come out & see us!
Thursday, June 15 10:00am – 6:00pm
Friday, June 16 10:00am – 6:00pm
Saturday, June 17 10:00am – 5:00pm
I noticed that I was running low on some of the Tiny Dresden Seasonal Series kits so this morning I’m finishing those up.
Do you need a new little project???
These are some of my best-selling patterns right now!
They’re each 6″ x 8″ & there’s one for every month.
I also sell the adorable little wire hanger to display them on each month.
The patterns that include the button(s) each month, the kits and the hangers along with the notions that I love to use to make them are all on my website.
You can see them all here on my Tiny Dresden Series page.
I hope you’re enjoying summer!
Just Keep Sewing…

I gave a program to our guild this week;
all about my Tiny & Mini Dresden plate quilts.
Love my little Dresdens!
Of course I offered my patterns & templates for sale.
I received an order for two Tiny Dresden Friend quilt kits from my friend Carol N.
Yes, she told me “I have two friends…”
Well, she’s not making a quilt for me,
so obviously she has way more than two friends!!! Lol…
I didn’t realize I hadn’t made any of those kits actually,
so today I gathered up all of those fabrics & cut kits.
Do they look a bit Sheldon Cooper-ish?
(He has a bit of O.C.D. on Big Bang Theory in case you’re wondering.)
I like to line everything up so I can see that I’m not missing anything
& if it happens to look very organized well all the better!
Whenever I’ve had my kids helping me fold patterns or whatever, I always insist they do things so it doesn’t “look like a kindergartner did it.” No offense kindergartners!
There, is that better?
At any rate,
I cut a few extra kits to have on hand
so if you’re needing one (or two or three…) they’re on my website.
Kits are also available for my Tiny Dresden Birthday pattern.
I have the whole monthly series in fabric kits too!
They make great little gifts either in the finished quilt form
or in pattern form for a quilting friend.
Mother’s Day will be here before you know it too…
Just keep sewing!

I have a new quilt; Playtime.
Of course it’s made with Vintage Play!
It’s featured in Quilt Trends’ Winter 2014 Magazine.
A fun lap quilt using the panel with kids playing,
plus the green border
and a few more prints.
The pillowcase shown is made with the cute dog print in red.
The pattern for the pillowcase can be found here on Quilt Trends’ website
and the quilt kit can be ordered from my website here.
A nice gift for a quilter on your Christmas list???
Until next time,
Susan
Quilting my way through life!
