Minecrafting Crafting
Just wanted to share a few of the things my boys and I have been crafting lately for the love of the game Minecraft :)
My Creeper Quilted Pillow:
My eldest's first try using a wood burning kit. I'd say he has a bit of talent with that burning pen!
He has always been quite an artist with a pencil and paper. My second son is a gifted graphic artist. I am so proud of their work, and they have even developed their own successful online business using their gifts. It is incidentally also related to Minecraft!! You can check it out at Fin's Graphic Design. My eldest is the pencil and paper guy, and the younger renders it all into Photoshop and is the online guy. Since most of my readership is probably moms like me, this might be a link you'll want to pass on to your kids or grandkids!

A Most Excellent Weekend Part 2
Remember this post? Gayle and her family returned to us this weekend and we managed to take some pictures of us together with our finished quilts!
Of course we did some sewing together this weekend too!
Gayle started her own hexies (tee-hee! I got her addicted too!) and I worked on mine. Another fantastic weekend with my quilty friend!

Simple Table Runner
Just a simple table runner to share today! This I made from a charm pack of Antique Fair from Moda I picked up at my LQS. The pattern is not original (nor difficult) and I used a picture I found online of a table runner. I also made this one the same way. Easy, peasy and quick, yet satisfying. And oh so fun to free motion quilt without the usual weight of an entire bed quilt like I'm usually doing!
This was a birthday present for my mom. I picked up the charm pack since the country colours made me think of her!
