Still Busy

As the summer winds down my weekends definitely haven't. My husband and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary on the 5th of September. We had a wonderful time although I spent very little time doing anything crafty.

So this last weekend I buckled down and tried really hard, well sort of. My intentions were pure, my enthusiasm was present, my thoughts were in order... but so were my friends! And therefore, I accomplished very little aside from eating pizza, watching football and hanging out.

To continue the fun, today was my first day of work at a new job!

So, despite all the events I've attended and the very little bit of quilting I have done, I did manage to go fabric shopping. I guess you can say I had a little bit of pent up shopping energy.

I found some really pretty seasonal fabric.

And a bit more and some pink.

And some very adorable black, grey and white numbers.

As well as some very pretty blue and green fabric.
Now, the only problem is finding something to make.
I saw these in a store while I was on vacation, I thought they were absolutely adorable! I'm pretty sure I could make these, no problem.
I have also received a request for some superman inspired quilts for twin boys. I believe they are around 2-3 years old. I went shopping the other day for some superman fabric and this was the only pattern I could find, not in flannel. It seemed a bit violent for the recipients, or maybe it's just me?


I was hoping for something with a little less fighting going on, I feel like this is gang superman fabric with the graffiti lettering and such... the search continues!

If you find any please send me the links, I'm looking for something a little bit more adorable than the above!
