i am off this week from work … and i am having the best time!!! i’m cooking dinner every night … spending time with each of my furbabies … and doing a whole lotta sewing! :) it’s my perfect week!
we were in lancaster over the weekend … and i visited some awesome quilt shops. it’s probably a good thing that i am far from LQSs. i would spend WAAAAY too much money! :) i did buy a few precuts and a couple of quilt books … but i didn’t go TOO out of control.
we stayed in a cool old converted factory. tons of red brick! it was really nice inside … lots of local art everywhere. a tad over priced and a bit pretentious … but not a bad stay. :)

but three charm packs got me here (i’m not using the purple or blue colorways) and i couldn’t decide if i wanted to stop here and make this a wall hanging or buy a few more charm packs and make this a quilt. i am strongly leaning towards the charm packs/quilt idea. :) i’m sure dave will be thrilled!
while i debated this … i still had some sewing time left … so i pieced together this with some leftovers …

i am thinking about hand quilting this one … maybe. depends on how quick i want this finished … i kinda want to hang it now!!! :)
my plans for the rest of the week? sewing!!! :) some more cooking … some family time. reading. napping. :) all good things!
have a great week everyone!!
xoxo
