Ribbon Star vs Rainbow Cupcake

So funny.. a couple hours before, I said I don't wanna to get near my sewing machine this weekend.
But, because of my daughter busy baking in the kitchen and I should watch over her. She didn't want me to help her.. "I can do it, mom!".. so I just watch her from dining table.

What should I do then? .. Well, I took some bright color fabrics and cut them and start to touch my sewing machine again (hohoho) .. Ribbon Star tutorial, here.

My daughter's rainbow cupcake came out beautifully, how about mine?

I like to join Quilt Along "Solstice Stars Series" from Fresh Lemon Blog. 

So wish me luck!

Twister - part:2

Finished before weekend .. yeahhh!
I have another plan for this weekend, don't wanna get near to my sewing machine..lol

I combined my twister block with Wonky Stars. You can find Wonky Star tutorial here.
It's really fun project to make.

Lil' Obi always playing around since beginning. He always pounced on the Twister and Wonky Star. Maybe he wants a quilt too. ( I will think about it, Obi!)

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!

Twister - part:1

No more templates...
No more tracing...
No more slipping...
No more frustration..

Only Fun!
(that's what they say about this tool)

Ahhaaa, No more frustration!!! .. yes, this one is what I need :))
Find tutorial here.

He is curious with this tool. But watch out Lil' Obiwan, it's not yours!

I need to put him on a bed, so I can work with my rotary cutter.

Only need some 5"square (assorted fabrics) and 3"strips for border.

Will be continued later ;)

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2012

In a few more hours year 2011 will change .. For some reason this year just really flew for me.. My mind is dancing back to the time that has elapsed.  As I thought back.. What did have been done?..  What dreams have come true?  Whatever it is, Thanks God for everything in 2011.

End of my lips was raised, a warm smile accompanied the heart and mind forward into the future. What will be for next year? A million dreams popping up again.. with the hope that it would be better next year.

May you be surrounded by the love of those closest to you.

May the special moments you share help you build warm memories that last a lifetime.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2012.
