i'm still here

but not for long...

april has been a whirlwind including the following huge changes: i got a new job (and 2 days after i resigned from the company i was working for they announced they were sold, craziness), we put our house on the market and we sold it! the only thing that hasn't happened yet is finding a new place to live. house hunting has got to be the hardest thing to do. i'm convinced there is no perfect house, and we can't seem to agree one one to live in.

meanwhile, time is running out and we'll have to say good bye to our adorable home. i have to admit, i'm a bit sad about it. if we found a new place to buy i'm pretty sure i'd be more excited than sad.

here is the slideshow of our house.

the first tie quilt

i have an order for several tie quilts so this will be the first of many.

i think it turned out pretty great!

i heart pets

i had a couple of pet portrait orders over the past few months. this first one was actually a gift from one of my friends to a musician that i totally enjoy listening to. it's crazy to think this is hanging in his house right now!

and here's a cat.

stargazer quilt

i just finished up a custom stargazer quilt order and it turned out great! the customer also wanted matching pillows for it and i have to thank her for the great pillow idea. I think they turned out swell.

barcelona pictures

our trip was incredible and barcelona is so much fun. everybody should go there at least once in their life even if only to see sagrada familia. it is a masterpiece of a structure and trying to put it in words or capture it in photos is impossible.





i've been super busy lately and don't have time to post about our whole barcelona trip, but hope you enjoy these few.

happy new year

i hope everyone had a great holiday season and new year. we had a very busy (but fun) christmas with our families, then hightailed it to barcelona for a week where we rung in the new year. more pics and a longer post about it will be coming.

how did you spend your new year?

rock n roll quilt finished

and the rock n roll quilt is finally finished! and it's huge! i stopped keeping track of how long this one took, but let's just say it took forever. i first blogged about it in february.


not only is the front the shirts, but the back is too. shirt backs :-)


it was dark when i finished it so the pictures are not great. i'll try to get some better ones this summer since it'll be residing in the house beside me.
