Are you CRAZY?? or is it just me...


HI Y'all....I made this quilt using Stina's heart patterns earlier this year...and I just finished it, at least for now. I did some crazy quilting stitches around some of the blocks...and I discovered crazy quilting is something you can just add to, and add to, and add to! It was great fun...as I am studying for my CCRN exam, I would take a break and stitch for a few minutes.

Y'all have a wonderful day! Did you watch the World Cup??

Your quilt is adorable...glad you are having fun with it. I don't really understand soccer, sad to say (since I understand many other sports) so I didn't watch the World Cup at all.

I love this quilt and your crazy quilting stitches! Good luck on the CCRN exam! I just finished the RN to BSN program and my sewing room has been screaming my name! I plan to start preparing to take the CEN soon! Kathy

Very cute! You must take advantage of any little bits of time that you might have.

This is neat! I made a crazy vest for someone who immediately spilled a red beverage on it. Too bad mine was pink and mint green instead of your raving red!!

Great work. Hope your test goes well. I remember doing the same one!

I did not watch the world cup, but I had a little guy in my class that would come in and give me a detailed report each game! Cute when an 8 year old gets caught up in sports.
I love the heart sampler! Between it being RED, my favorite, and hearts which I have a huge collection of, it makes my heart sing!! I may need to give something like this a try, thank you for sharing! pokey

Pat said...

Yes I am!!! Love your quilt. I was very pleased with Spain as the winner of the World Cup. A great game to bad someone had to lose.

Your quilt is really cute, and I love all your crazy stitching. Good luck with the studying.

How cute is that, Julie!

How I admire the fact that you can study. I don't know if I remember how...not to mention the fact that that I doubt I have the self discipline anymore.

I watched the World Cup from start to finish and was disappointed that the Netherlands lost.

What a cute quilt and the stitching is really fun isn't it?!
No world cup for me, although I've been keeping up by reading the newspaper in the mornings.

Loris said...

That is so cute! Love your stitching on it. Good idea to have something to stitch on for little breaks with the studying. It will keep your mind more alert. Hang in there, you are going to do very well.

Karen said...

Your creativity in additional blocks for the little quilt, besides Stina's heart designs, is very good. I like the extra stitching too.

Very cute! You are ahead of the game for next year's holiday :)

DH had the finals on while we were both in the office, he watched for a long time, then decided to go downstairs. I saw the winning goal out of the corner of my eye. He missed it because he was on the stairs! Too funny.
