Welcome to day 8 of the Text It Blog Hop! Today I’m sharing project number eight, the Life is Short wall hanging.
photography by Pamela Morgan – My Sweet Little Stitches
I had so many funny coffee ‘talk’ sayings in my head I had a hard time choosing one… in fact, I think I need to make one that says…
I did manage to find some time to make this one…
I hope that song doesn’t get stuck in your head now lol
We have three quilters sharing their versions today… please hop over to see what they’ve made and join in their giveaways!
Becca Fenstermaker – Pretty Piney
Becca and I met in Chicago at Sew Pro a few years ago; I distinctly remember the dresses she wore and (more importantly) that she made them herself. I was so impressed! We became friends and follow each other on social media. Becca is a 2019 Island Batik Ambassador and on her website Pretty Piney, you can find some fun quilt-a-longs and tutorials. You need to see her wall hanging that includes lyrics from Simon and Garfunkel, who are a fave of mine too!
Katie Bock – Sewing with Katie
Katie has began sewing and crafting as a teen, and shares her sewing and quilting love through her online magazine, Our Quilting Journey… read more about Katie here. You can also follow her facebook page and hop over to enter her giveaway and see her project here!
Alla Blanca – Rainbows Bunnies Cupcakes
You will find Alla blogging about her sewing and quilting adventures on her website Rainbows Bunnies Cupcakes, I bet there is a story behind that name! You can also find Alla on instagram here. She joins us for todays hop with a fun wall hanging that has something to do with dessert; so you know it will be sweet! Hop over to her site to see her project and enter her giveaway!
