Fresh Sewing Day!

I can't believe it's November already.
Looking back, I got far more done in October than I thought I did, mostly bee blocks and swaps.

My favorite piece from October was my 241 bag in Pernilla's Journey. So far, it's gone on weekends to the Kentuck Festival and to Savannah. I love it. I have another one being constructed in my head....maybe 2 more.

Today is the last day to vote on the Eternal Makers Japanese Scrap Bag challenge. Even if you don't vote for me, there are awesome women who should be supported over there. So much creativity!


I'm linking up with Lily here.
Fresh Sewing Day

On tap this month:
My Black, White, and Grey swap
Being a Caretaker for a 3x6 hive.
Making a crapload of bee blocks (New Bee on the Block, Sew Bee Blissful, 3x6 and 4x5 blocks)
Also planned, quilting my Dead Simple, a second run at it as a cross quilt in another palette.
MORE stockings!
Um...oh yeah...and a buncha Xmas presents that need making.
I have a ton of pouches to design/sew, in theory, a quilt that needs quilting for my mom (the reality is that it's too big for me and my tiny machine), a bag that needs making for a friend, a quilt for the Pirate's friend....oh, and I signed up for a bunch a more charm swaps and have signed up for this:
Gen X Quilters

Did I mention that I've got parent conferences and I'm presenting at a conference next week?!
Today my drama class presented a work in progress. It well received by family and friends. I'm pondering starting a kid bellydance troupe. I'm still thinking of doing it, even after dancing for over 3 hours tonight.

This may be my last small blog linkup at Lily's. I'm at 49 followers. I have a giveaway planned when I hit 50. Want to help me make it this week?
