It seems like the last three months around here it’s done nothing but rain. A couple of weeks ago we got high hopes that warmer weather was on its way, but no such thing. Day in and day out it just pours. Over the weekend there was such a downpour that several parts of the city flooded. Let me tell you… it’s wet.
And it’s cold. Today I felt I had just had it. So I finally lit the fireplace. And at long last I have been able to sit at my computer and work without shivering. You see, the fireplace is in my office! This is what I am enjoying while I type:
I guess the warmth helped to inspire me, because I finally finished the last two patterns or our All Buttoned Up series that I had on the back burner since January.
And I got a head start on our Christmas in July series. I think this year’s patterns will be fun. I don’t want to spoil the fun, but here’s an itty bitty sneak peak of what’s to come. 🙂
I am a self-learner. I taught myself to sew and to quilt. And I taught myself how to draw. I am learning how to dye my own fabrics and am dabbling with mixed media. I am a quilt designer and teacher, and design and publish my own line of quilt patterns. With this blog I would like to share the bits and pieces of my life.

I love your fireplace. I wanted one but our house didn’t have one, hopefully we can build one someday. Love your new patterns, great ones for christmas and gift giving.

Your fireplace is beautiful and I know about this cold. Is summer ever coming? I better make space for Christmas in July in my sewing calendar. I’ll be doing that one.
Angie, esos proyectos de Navidad prometen ser excelentes! Sin duda alguna, haré el de los osos y pingüinos, mis hijas estarán encantadas con él!!!! Espero terminar antes el de Feliz Navidog y el de Merry Beary Xmas que tengo a medias…
Cariños,
Irene
