Halloween Soup Can Surprise!

I cannot believe that October is already more than half over!  Where does the time go???

Today for my Thursday’s Thought, I decided to make these fun Halloween Soup Can labels, instead of a thought, I don’t think that anyone will mind… right?

I am sure that you have probably seen this idea before but they are such a fun idea for kids, grandkids, co-workers, visiting teaching, neighbors or to BOO your friends!

Halloween Table Quilt

I finished my Halloween Table Quilt last weekend!  Hurray!

I feel like I have been sewing non-stop lately, but I have been able to get a lot done, so I am not complaining!    My husband went hunting last week so I did no cleaning or cooking for a couple days.  It was nice to just be on my own timetable and do whatever I wanted when I wanted!   I have two more quilts that I want to get done.  A Fall/Thanksgiving quilt and my Christmas Stitched quilt.  Oh, and I have another minky/baptism quilt, (but for a girl this time) coming up the first part of December!  So I have 3 more to go!

But here is my Halloween Table Quilt.  I think that it turned out pretty cute.  I love all the details in this little quilt.  It is good for a wall hanging or for a table quilt:

Thursday’s Thought-“Eye” Hope You Have…

Today is Thursday, so it is time again, for my Thursday’s Thought!

This is just a silly little thought from my silly little mind, but maybe it will get you all in the Halloween Spirit!

Halloween-Picture-000-Page-1

This is a fun print that would be great to frame for a sign for your Halloween party,

or just to put on your kitchen counter or your work desk!  

It would also make cute tags to tie onto your Halloween treat bags!   But whatever you do…

“Eye” hope that you have a bewitching Halloween Season! 

Have a great day everyone!  Love Ya!

Easy Chevron Halloween Quilt

Here is one of the quilts that I have been working on this past couple of weeks! 

I was a little bit worried about how this quilt would really turn out because I bought some of the fabric at a quilt show that I went to and after getting part way done with sewing the quilt, I realized that I had only gotten 1/2 as much fabric as what I needed!  So I went to my fabric stash and got enough to sew about 3/4 of the quilt and then I had to go buy the rest of the fabric!  So this is really a mismatched quilt, but I actually like how it turned out!

Stitched Christmas Quilt Blocks (WIP)

I have so many projects going on right now that I am driving myself crazy!  I tend to do this every year in the fall, I get the bug to start sewing, crafting, reading, baking, canning and organizing!   I just need to pace myself and finish one project before I start the next one!  Do any of you do that too, or am I the only crazy one???

I am working on 4 different quilts right now with the patterns and fabric for several more!  I bought my quilting machine a few months ago and now I think that I have to use it all the time… it just keeps calling my name…but I love learning how to use it! 

This quilt that I am trying to get finished up this week, my WIP (Work in Progress), is from Bird Brain Designs and the name of the pattern is Snowmen & Reindeer Bluework Quilt.  I got this pattern last spring when we were in Arizona on our little annual vacation.  I am doing it all as a redwork so that it will match my other Christmas quilts that I have already made.

I have been working on these block since last spring and I have all but one of the blocks completely stitched and I am hoping to get the last one done this weekend!

Oct 2013 Visiting Teaching Handout

Here is the visiting teaching handout for this month for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

This month they are starting a new series on the visiting teaching message: “This is the first in a series of Visiting Teaching Messages featuring aspects of the mission of the Savior.”

The Divine Mission of Jesus Christ: Creator

This month the aspect that is being taught is that Jesus Christ is the Creator.  I chose to feature the quote by President Utchdorf; “We are the Reason He Created the Universe!  I love this thought and I hope that we can all remember this in times of trial and sorrow.

Thursday’s Thought -Only Bad Witches…

Here is my thought today.  I don’t think that it needs any explanation or introduction!  

Because it is what it is…right?

Only-Bad-Witches-000-Page-1

This would be a fun one to print and frame.  Perhaps you know someone that would like this on their desk, or kitchen counter to make them smile when they look at it.

Happy Haunting today and if you are going to be a witch today, make sure that at least you are a beautiful one!  :)
