I'm sorry

I really am ladies.  I am sorry I have not completed Teriny, Sarah and now Liz's square.  I hate being late and am usually very deadline oriented.  That being said, I am just swamped.  We have been terribly busy setting up shop here in Denver.  It's all going well, but still it's an awful lot of work (as I know many of you who have moved long distances know).  We've also embarked on a bit of homeschooling (K12) of our oldest since school here started so soon after we moved here.  He will probably enter our neighborhood school by October, but that is keeping me nice and crazy.  My biggest hindrance is that the spare room (a.k.a. the sewing room) is sort of like the room of requirement (in the room of hidden things incarnation) right now.  And what with so much going on generally my time to attack the spare room to even make room for any sewing is short.  I really am hoping to get things squared away and be all caught up soon.  But I do feel bad and had to post that I do realize how behind I am and I am trying to rectify it.

All of your work is beautiful and inspiring and I hope to give all of you a square you love.

Thank you so so much for your patience!

For Liz Love, Jen




Dear Liz,

This square made me feel like a true quilter.
It took me a few hours to finish putting it together.
I really went out of my way to find fabrics you would like.
In the end, I felt it to be very Liz-worthy.
Enjoy!

Love ya,

Jen

half square triangles for my mom

It's my mom's month at her other quilting bee.  She's going to make a lovely quilt out of half square triangles with this moda line that seriously looks like her house! A quilt that I'm sure the grandkids will quickly commandeer and make their own! 
I got to make a square for her quilt too!
