I didn't have time to take many pics and didn't get many good ones but I thought this blurred one was pretty cool with the way everything is floating.

Sewing on Saturday & Block Party Book
I'm up, I've had a good week and I'm really inspired by some of the amazing and pretty things I've seen lately so I'm ready to get sewing but my sewing machine has other plans. I'm taking it in this morning to get the tension sorted out. The good thing about taking it in though is that it's a really good shop & they'll fit a free motion quilting foot for me. I'm not sure if I'm ready for that yet (eek!) so I'll ask them about a walking foot and if they think my machine is up for the amazing quilting odysey it has ahead of it.
But I did mention pretty & inspiring so I'll share two of the things that made me happy this week - take a look over at Heather Ross' blog if you haven't visited lately. She has the loveliest drawings of the owl & the pussycat, wait until you see the honeybear bottles! She is such an amazing designer and her storytelling isn't bad either. It looks like it might be for fabrics but there's no telling whether we'll get to get our hands on it. With everything I've heard about her deal with Munki Munki it will probably be more cutting up pajamas or bathers or some such for her fabric fans *sigh*.
The second really inspiring thing is that the talented gals over at Block Party have a book deal in the works & are changing over to a quilt along. They'll have a new block to make each quarter - I've never made a block in my life but I can't wait to get started. It's on my big scary list of things to learn so it'll be great to do it virtually with a bunch of other people. They're also having a giveaway to celebrate but there's no point you entering because that Erin Michael paint by numbers bird is mine! ;)
