Everyday Quilt Designs
I saw these tiles while shopping in The Villages in Florida.

Can you believe that paper clips can make a quilt?

I am sure you can see the quilt design in this crop circle. Makes me want to pull some fabric out!

A little bragging on my part...
How I love this Grand baby Gabriella....perfect baby if you ask me!

After visiting my parents in Florida,we decided to make some stops on the way home. One of them was in Savannah, GA and the other was in Richmond, VA.
My friend Joyce owns QUILTING ADVENTURES Quilt Shop. It makes me crazy when my time is limited, I could have spent all day looking around. Her shop is HAPPY and loaded with all kinds of goodies for every type of quilter. I highly recommend you stop in when in Richmond, VA.
Joyce has a blog too!!!

I thought it would be great fun to do something different for "Your Color Fix for Today" for my February Valentine's Day/Month post. Usually I have all kinds of different, vibrant colors, but I thought it would be fun to post "Red/Pink" things we all use in our sewing room. I hope you enjoy it ! I'll resume back to the regular color fixes after this post.....but all in all, I think these colors will get your mojo going too! Let me know!

Who knew there were red sewing machines? Makes me want to have one now!

Don't know about you, but without glasses I'm a stitching fool! Mine are orange, now I want red!

I love, love, love this idea!

Thank you all for stopping by.Something new I added.....at the very top of the blog page is a Google search of my blog. If you are looking for something special here, just type the words in and it will show up with that blog post! Cool!!!
Hope you leave a comment, it makes my day! Where's the comment area you ask? It's in very little letters that say "Comment" underneath this post!
And I leave you with these pictures. That's my little Zoie with her few last Frisbee tosses while waiting for the "big snow" that starts tonight. I try to exercise her as much as possible while she can still see above the snow!

Rotary Cutter Hording,Superbowl Trophy Maker,Office/Studio Make Over,Ode to the Tomato Pincushion,Your Color Fix for Today

How many rotary cutters do you own? I really want to know! In my organizing frenzy, I have learned that I own 14 rotary cutters. How ridiculous is that? Thankfully 6 of them will be going to new homes, to new quilters and I will return my rotary cutters after using them to their new designated place in my sewing room!
At the bottom of today's blog post, leave a comment and let me know how many you own!

Do you know who makes the Superbowl trophy? The people behind it?

Well...I do and one of these amazing people is MY DAD
My dad, a silversmith for Tiffany & Co. played an integral part of making the Superbowl trophy for 38 years. Imagine being given a blob of silver and transforming it into a world known symbol for the Superbowl game millions watch every year! My dad is the silver haired man second from the left. One of the great things I got to do was go to Tiffany's every year and hold the Superbowl trophy and get my picture taken with it. Here's a little secret.....the initials of this team are secretly (well not so secret now) engraved inside!

Still focusing on the organizing and redoing of my office/studio and I am really pleased how it's turning out. Oh believe me....it has been an eye opener from the beginning. I found out a few things about myself. I "over-collect" things. Things like greeting cards, scissors, rotary cutters, office supplies....well you get the idea. I feel that since I now have a place for everything and knowing what I have, this will avoid mis-spending and over collecting. Finally!!! These pics are just the new things that have happened since my last few postings of pictures of the office-makeover. Keep tuned to my blog...there is still more to do in here...stay tuned!

Click on the scissors and it will take you to a website that has sewing related cabinet knobs just like these scissors!

ODE TO THE BELOVED TOMATO PIN CUSHION
With all the craze of making pincushions, I wanted to revisit our old friend, the original tomato pincushion. She is still alive and "very" red!
