Good morning! You can tell when I am off from work, you hear from me a little more regularly. I finished the above little bag yesterday, a Nancy Halverson pattern. Stippled on the machine. Fun! Hearts are really my thing, since I am a heart nurse, and I just love them anyway.
Here are my fabrics for Judy's Star block of the month. How nice of her to share her patterns! Her finished quilt is just so pretty, I saw it this morning at www.patchworktimes.com. And I finished my first block below...
Turned out Ok, some of my seam allowances was not spot on, and I need to press the whole block. But pretty pattern, right?
*******************Birthday stuff***************
We went out to eat at a mexican restaurant I just love. I had fajitas, and came home stuffed, even though we shared a meal. Yummy!!! And then I received a new bike helmet...this is great, seeing as I fell off the bike earlier in the month...and lots of other goodies. I am spoiled, I tell you!!
*******************odds and ends****************
I am kind of at a loss for what to do today. I need to get in there and do some deep cleaning! And I think that is where at least a part of the day will be spent. Have a wonderful day!!

What a lovely bag Julie, but red's my favorite colour so it's a winner right away. Sounds like you had a lovely birthday...
Beautiful bag Julie, and the fabrics in the quilt top are fantastic.

Such a pretty bag, you did a great job.
I really do like your fabrics for the star blocks and your block looks perfect to me. I am printing out the patterns, but have not decided on fabric yet. I am thinking a patriotic quilt as I don't have one and I do like seasonal quilts that I can set out at different times during the year.
I love those hearts....it is a seriously cute bag.
I love the bag. So awesome. You are doing a great job on your b-attitudes. Makes me want to go get the book and do it. I love Judy Halverson designs. Happy b-lated birthday:)
