Welcome to finish it up Friday! Anyone else utterly exhausted? ;0)
Because I am stubborn to the end, I actually eeked out a finish for today. I had these pin cushions almost done, so I hand stitched them closed this morning. Hurray for finishing something! I have 3 more like it to finish-just as soon as I find my big bag of walnut shells. I bet it'll be a few weeks before that happens! :)
(there is a tutorial here for making a mini whirlygiggle block if you'd like to make something similar.)
A few more BIG finishes that are happening today. It's my kids' last day of school AND we are selling our old house today. HUGE finishes, wouldn't you say? Both very good things! I'm excited for summer!
How about you? Any finishes to share today? If so, please link up! Happy Friday to you!
I can't believe you have a finish in the middle of moving, traveling and teaching. You are Super Woman!!
ReplyDeleteCute pin cushions! Congrats on all the exciting changes going on in your life!
ReplyDeleteHuge finished for sure. Best of luck with all of the changes going on. Since the weekend retreat I just got back from had a UFO theme I have more than the usual finishes to share. WIsh I could pull that off every week but then I guess it wouldn't be as special.
ReplyDeleteadorable pincushions, and how wonderful to be selling the old house, yay! and double yay for school being finished.
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing that you got a finish in with your crazy week of moving, guild visit, and all the other stuff. Good job! They look fabulous too! Thanks for the linkup!
ReplyDeleteI'm impressed you managed a finish at all with all that has been going on for you in the last week!
ReplyDeleteThose are just so adorable!!! And a finish with all your moving, wow!!!
ReplyDeleteReally sweet pincushions. Thanks for the tutorial on the block you used.
ReplyDeleteThey are really cute! Yeah for selling the house :)
ReplyDeleteRoll on summer!
Wow, you're able to sew while selling a house, you're amazing! Those pin cushions are adorable, thanks for the wonderful party!!
ReplyDeleteThose are very cute!!
ReplyDeleteYou are crazy!! I can't believe you eeked out a finish in the midst of all you have going on but then again, I can. I have that internal drive too.
ReplyDeleteAre you a unpacking ninja warrior?
I hope you get to celebrate the start of summer and the house sale with a bang!
Then we'll be inviting ourselves over soon to distract your kids while you get some work done :)
ReplyDeleteHappy summer vacation!
These pin cushions are sooooo cute! I pinned them on my Quilt and Sew board (hope that's ok with you).
ReplyDeleteLovely pincussions! And yay for finishing them during this stressy time! Happy unpacking (if one can call unpacking "happy"...)
ReplyDeleteMy finish for today is also a pin cushion. :)
ReplyDeleteThose are so cute! I need to see if Walmart has the walnut shells in their pet department.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you're still posting in the middle of your move! ...and those are adorable pin cushions, of course. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope all is going smoothly with your relocation!
Happy Friday to you too, Amanda Jean. You've been so busy lately ... thank you for managing to keep your "Finish it up Friday " going through it all.
ReplyDeleteWishing you all the best with your move :)
Good for you---finishing is a good thing!
ReplyDeleteI love your pin cushions!! I still have yet to make one :o) Good luck with the move and school ending!!
ReplyDeleteanother project for me to do, but if I just do a pin cushion it will not take long, mind you followed the link and liked the mini quilt too.
ReplyDeleteHope move has gone successfully and yu will all be very happy in your new home.
Cute pincushions!
ReplyDeleteMy finish is a new pattern published, so I'm celebrating with a giveaway! (http://www.adventuresofaquiltingdiva.com/2-cute-quilts/b-is-for-bunny/)
I have just borrowed your book - Sunday Morning Quilts - from my local library. OMG! It's absolutely fab. I am going to buy my own copy.
ReplyDeleteThey're lovely! I still do not own a pin cushion. Must get on to it, though I have been using the excuse of not knowing where to get walnut shells from in Australia. Will have to investigate...
