Just Plain Happy :)

It's been lovely weather, and I'm feeling fairly good, and the garden is growing, and I am just happy :)
I have also been working on this...

Halfway There...
These are the "leftovers" from my version of the Jewel Box quilt in the Fat Quarterly e-zine. I actually got enough half-square triangles for 12 blocks total and they're all made. This afternoon I'm going to put the top together and load it onto my GrandQuilter to quilt it :)

I'm still working on the Jewel Box quilt. I just need to make a few more blocks and I can put that top together, too.

7:365 Happiness :)
I also indulged this weekend and bought 1/2 yard each of all 40 prints in the "Freebird" line by MoMo for Moda. I ordered them from Hawthorne Threads on Saturday and they came today! I call that good, fast service :)

This morning I've gotten a lot done in the way of housecleaning and I've made yogurt and bread. I'm feeling all domestic today :)

  12. I just love this pattern, which to me is a version of the pin wheel...more fancy. And you have a wonderful choice of fabrics.
