I refuse to shovel today

Snow, snow, snow. Every day it's been snowing. Every day I've been shoveling. But not today. So far. I'd rather be inside sewing.


I did get one more pair of jammies done. Last pair for a while. I FINALLY made it through all my jammie fabric stash. I love this fabric!



So comfy!

I wanted to make my son some throw pillows for his new couch. So I got busy at the sewing machine and came up with these.



I think he'll like them. I used a bag of fabric scraps I bought. Yeah, I actually bought a bag of scraps. Like I don't have enough of my own around here.

I signed up for a jelly roll quilt along. I'm excited! Every other Monday we'll get the pattern for the newest block. I bought a jelly roll from an etsy shop. I can't wait until it gets here so I can start my quilt. If you don't know what a jelly roll is, it's a whole bunch of 2 1/2 inch x 40 inch fabric strips that come all rolled together in a package. That will save time on some of the cutting. I also ordered a pattern for a Schnibbles quilt. Funny word. Schnibbles. It's a little quilt made out of little pieces. I'll be using a charm pack of fabric for that. So while I wait for these things to come in the mail, I'll be working on a totebag. Can't wait to get started on that!

Love the pillows! One of these days I'll learn to sew.
