Need a little help from my friends

Hello everyone,
I am making this darling pink & brown quilt from a kit.  The quilt measures 46 inches sq., but I decided to make it larger to fit my bed.  Which leads me to my quest for some help.  I have been searching for this yummy fabric for the border but can't seem to locate any.

It is pink spirals from the Charleston  collection by Judy Rothermel for Marcas Brothers.
If any one can help me find more of this fabric,  it would be greatly appreciated.

Here is a good start of making my blocks.  They are so pretty, I just love pink & brown Civil War quilts.

Thank you for any help some one can give.

Hugs,

Rebecca

 

Back home

Well it is a few days after Christmas and I hope you all had a lovely one.
We spent our on the sands of Hawaii in 80 degree temps.  I was a first for us to be away during the Holidays but spending it relaxing made me think about doing it again.

I did get home in time to have a great Christmas lunch with my girl friends & exchange gifts.  I managed to find time to make them each a darling quilted Christmas tree.  The pattern is by PJ embroidery designs.  You build each piece one at a time & adding them to each other.  I love the bling of the crystales.

I wanted to show you the beautiful Christmas gift my friend Deb

We got to know each other on a quilting forum & have been friends ever since.  I just love the trees & fabric.  Warwick give her stamp of approval.  Thank you from the bottom of my heart Deb.

Hope you all have a great day, thanks for stopping by.

Hugs,

Rebecca

Merry Christmas to all.

What I've been up to

I have not been posting for quite a while because I DO NOT LIKE THE NEW FORMAT of blog spot.  I simply don't know how to do posts or find blogs anymore. 

Plus life has been crazy.  I probably won't be on for awhile again because this is what we are dealing with.
It's called the robber's fire & is in our back yard.  I have my sewing machine  packed in my truck in case we get the evacuation warning.   Gregg & I ran through what to take if he is at work.  Grab the antique quilts, the cat.   I really hate summers due to the fear of fires.
Please keep us in your prayers.
Rebecca

Hello again

Hello again my friends. Where have I been & what have I been doing? Well I took a little break from blogging, but have been reading & catching up on all your blogs. You all have been making pretty things, & doing some exciting things.

Let me show you a few things that has been going on in Rebecca's Room. I finished my red heart twister quilt & just love how it turned out. I didn't get it finished in time for Valentine's Day, but that is alright, it will look great hanging anytime. This one will be a gift for someone, I made an all pink one for myself because, well, if you know me I love pink. It just needs to be quilted. I believe I showed it to you in an older post. 

 

My Friend Penny who comes to sew with me sent me a link to DIY on how to make dress form pincushions. Now I love & collect dress forms so this was so perfect. I have been having so much fun making dress forms. Putting gigas & bling on them is the most fun.

Notice this one has a tape measure flower.

 

This one has a zipper flower. Ah they just make me smile.

Can you guess what all my sewing friends are getting for Christmas?

Well, nice sharing with you, thank you for stopping by.

Hugs,

Rebecca

Happy Valentines Day

 

Wishing everyone a very Happy Valentine's Day!
Do you have big plans?  I know it can be difficult when the big day falls mid week, but I am planning a nice dinner for my man.  Now am am not much of a baker so  I found the cutest individual sized cheese cakes.  Gregg loves cheesecake so that will be a hit.

Wishing you all love & happiness,
Rebecca

My new purse

I wanted to share with the the darling purse & small bag my friend Deb made for me.  I just love the fabric she picked.  She gave me the pattern so I can swap the purse with a different fabric sometime.  I don't know if you can see it, but the zipper pull on the little bag is scissors.  Isn't it cute?

Here is a shot of the inside, beautiful Deb.

 

 

Then she made me this darling shopping bag with it's own bag to to store it in.  It folds up nice & tiny to fit in your purse until you are ready to fill it.  Now how did she know I love black & white cows?    I just love those faces.

Thanks for stopping by,
Hugs,
Rebecca
