I'm back sort of...

Truthfully, these last couple of days have had their ups and downs. Friday I was frantically trying to get all our things together for our trip. Somehow I managed although I was up from 4am to midnight! Saturday we spent 12 hours in the car..oh that can be tough. But we made it here. I worked on a few hand piecing things as you can see.
Above photo I am using paper piecing squares to make a pincushion with the new Mary Englebreit fabrics from Moda. I just love making them. I scored the fabric from the Fat Quarter shop....I love it. I also made out with some of the new Urban chicks line Swell. Yippee...I get to play with new fabric!
And some yo-yo's from susan branch fabrics.... not sure what they will end up on but I was just maiking them...applique flowers maybe?
And more finished pincushions....well the 4 on the right need buttons...I thought I had good colors but after auditioning I decided to change and look for more contrast. Something to shop for at A.C. Moore. Hmmm what will I do with all those pincushions? And another WIP, it's going to be a purse for my oldest DD. I hope to finish it while we are here.
