My last weekend in pictures part one...

Since my mother in law was here (for a root canal) we had to fill last weekend somehow.
So I drug out my Sizzix cutter and circle die and cut her over 100 circles to make yo-yo's.

I cut this stack from my scraps and they are beauties...
We also cut dresdens with my Go! cutter for another hand stitching project,
but I forgot to take a picture.


Saturday my husband and I got to go away for the day.
okay we left at 7am and were back by 3pm...LOL
We chose the IKEA in Canton MI.
We had never been to that store.
It was good, but I prefer Cinncinatti because there is a Jungle Jim there.
While we were driving I sewed on a binding for that quilt....
48 x 48.
Not showing the front yet...
you'll have to use your imagination,
a little Lucy's Crab Shack by Sweetwater
and a plain ole BIG block ;)

How fun to get away with just your husband to a little adventure! I've been playing with Lucy's Crab Shack too, and is it CUTE! I'm anxious to see the front of your quilt!

I can't wait to see the front of your quilt! I think I need to investigate getting a sizzix,
or maybe I just need to investigate dies for the go and go baby I have here.
Question, bottom picture of the circles you cut is a yellow fabric with little houses..do you by chance know what it is> I want to see more of it, I think I need some lol!
