Oh my, time has been flying by. I haven't intentionally given up on my little blog. I'm actually surprised to see that it's been over a year since I last posted!! What the french?? I have no excuses, just the usual busy mom ones. I'm sure you can all relate. Wait a minute, I do actually have something to blame. It's Instagr*m. (I'm afraid to put the word on here, cause it insights tons of IG spam, which is totally annoying) You know what I'm tallking about. It's the lazy blogger's blog post!! I love it. I love getting to see what my friends are working right when they post it, it's cool, dude.
I have lots to share, but for now I'm excited about finally finishing my Union Jack quilt! Charles was helping me to baste it. Actually he was no help at all, he kept streaking back and forth across the quilt, being a fluffy menace.
It's about half way quilted. I saw wavy quilting at Peace and Quilt that looked so nice! Like the little flags are blowing in the wind. Mine doesn't look quite as nice, and it's taking forever to quilt. Forever. But I'll keep on keepin' on... I will be victorious!!
Well, it's my first post in over a year, so as not to strain myself I will now take my leave. Thank you so much for visiting, seriously, thank you!! I've got some blog make-over plans for the new year that I'm pretty excited about.
I'll show you the quilt when it's all done!! x
I have always admired this pattern. Your quilt looks great!

Your quilt looks so great! You're not alone being away from Blogland. I've been neglecting my blog, but really missed Blogland between my posts. I use facebook and IG all the time, it's a bit more easier than writing blog posts, but I must admit I think it's sad we don't share that many posts in Blogland. I've decided to write posts more often, I really love the comments and visits from my fellow quilter friends.

A YEAR!!!! Whatever is a SW to do with you. I'm seriously agrieved that you and SW1 have moved over to IG -- Slutting Around, that's what I call it. Hubby and I are thinking about demoting you two. Speaking of Hubby, did you see that he's coming back in January???

LOVE it! I found you by accident again. I was considering that perhaps it was witness protection that lured you away but glad to know it was just life. It happens. Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a happy new year. I think of you each time I used my tea things!
