An Uh-Oh and an announcement

Yep, big Uh-Oh!! I have a new addiction! And that's bad! Once I become addicted to something, that's it, I'm done for! So, what is my new addiction you ask?    ONE WORD:
                          SWAPS!!!!!
Yep, I love 'em! I've recently just finished up the Doll Quilt Swap! Wanna see what I made for my Partner?

This is the front of it!

And that's the back. It's sooo hard to give up though! I love it! I see making another one similar to this for myself in the near future! I hope my Partner loves it as much as I do....and I think she will!!!! I can't wait to see her response once she receives it! I also made her a little mug rug that I hope she will like.

I've also recently joined 2 more Flickr swaps and 1 private swap. (I'm up for a private swap ANY TIME just incase any one wants to know!)
The first one is round 3 of Modernista Homemade and for this round we are doing the living room! What did I request? Well, of course A PILLOW! I have none, zero, zip!!!! And I'm in DIRE need of one, or two, or ten!!!!

Here is the mosaic I made for my Partner to find some inspiration! I love everything about each of these photos, the colors, the designs, the fabrics! I'm not hard to please so I think who ever my Partner is will do just fine!

I just finished signing up for round 2 (but my first round) of Sew Sew Modern !!! In this swap you can request one large item and your Partner has to make or buy something that coordinates with the large item. So like, a sewing machine cover and pin cushion, or table runner and napkin rings. (I'm using the examples from the rules) But I've requested either throw pillows (CUZ I NEED THEM!) lol or a sewing machine cover (because I haven't mustered up the courage to make on for myself yet!)

Yes, this is my mosaic for SSM, and it is very similar to the Modernista mosaic, but I LOVE these designs!!! My color request for this one is either a blue (aqua), orange, and gray or a rainbow. And I'd be happy with either/or!!!!
I also am doing a private pillow swap with a friend from IG!!! And yes, we are swapping PILLOWS! LOL!

This is my fabric pull for her, and she chose the Charcoal gray to go along with those pretty pinks and purples! (top right) I can't say I blame her! I can't wait to see what her choices for me are!!!!

I am inlove with IG (insta gram) and if any of you have IG and are not yet following me, you can find me under the name CraftNurseQuilt! I post lots and lots of pics on there! But, I just recently hit....

 

TWO HUNDRED followers!!!!

*Happy dance* So, for miss PrettyPenny7 I am very thankful! So much so that I'm going to send her a little goodie of some sort!!!! Thanks again!!!!



On another note, I've been having a few requests to join my quilting bee, so I've thought long and hard about this and I've decided that IF there is ENOUGH interest I'm happy to start another "hive" and it will consist of the same rules as the one I'm running now. So if you are interested in joining leave me a comment telling me so! 11 people is all I need and I can get the show on the road! If you need to find out about the rules go here to read a little more about it!
I hope to hear from you guys soon!!!
~Hope y'all are having a GREAT day!!~

Kona Neutral Swap

So, I had a blast doing my Kona Rainbow Swap! It went very well! Only a few slight "gliches", ya live and ya learn right? Well the wonderful peeps who were in my swap want ANOTHER ONE!Sew, without further adu, I introduce to you

 No rainbows this time though! We are going for Neutrals!!!!!! And instead of doing the 5" charms we are going to be doing 5"x 10" "bricks".  This one is going to be a bit different from the last. Instead of you being assigned a specific color group and then picking the color and posting it, I will be posting the pics of the different colors I have chosen and on your entry form you will be giving me your top 3 choices. I'll show you some of the colors I have picked out!

Butter

Charcoal

Cream

Earth

Ivory

Iron Grey

Parchment

Taupe

Steel

Oyster

I will have 26 spots open, (I'm taking 2). The max number of spots one person can take will be 2 that way more people can join us! The more the merrier, right? So that will be a total of 28 spots. Each person will need to buy 2 yards of their assigned color (if you are worried you may make a mistake in your cutting you can always buy a little extra that way you have room for error).
I am hoping for a VERY quick turn around, which means that, if you can't get it in the mail by the mail date please, don't join this round (not trying to be rude, I just don't want to have to wait weeks on one or 2 people to send theirs to me!)
All rules and further details will be posted on the flikr group page!!!! So click here to find out how to join me!!!!!
