YO-YO QUILT IS DONE!!

I have actually finished this long desired Yo-Yo quilt. I have always admired the vintage yo-yo quilts I've seen over the years and always wanted to have one of my own. I was able to complete this quilt with the help of many blogging freinds who kindly sent me scraps to add to the overall peach, pink and yellow color scheme. I thank you all very much. Another great factor in completing this is the Clover Yo-Yo maker, it sped things up considerably, and was so easy to use with great results. There are 1,176 yo-yo's and the quilt measures 42" X 63". Each completed yo-yo is 1 1/2". I was looking for the essence of ice cream sherbert! It is bordered by one row of light green and one row of dark green. Once again, thanks to my freinds for their generosity. Did you notice Jelly Bean's rear end? You can click on the picture to enlarge it.

Successfull Re-Do

I think we got all the bugs worked out and now I'm pretty happy with this new look. I hope you all like it. It can be scarey deleting the old and trying to edit the new without loosing those items you want to keep. There's still a few links I need to add, but overall I'm done. Do you like it?

New Look...bear with me!!

Hey everybody...hope the New Year is treating you all well.  I haven't posted in a while due to a brief illness and also because I work for a game distributor so November and December where quite busy.  I'm going to try to re-design the page.  It may take a few days to get the elements the way I want them to be. 
I also have some great projects I've finished that I would like to share; along with pictures to go along with them.  So, bear with me, and hopefully we'll have a new look for 2010.
