Better Pictures!

I'm so happy with all the sewing I am getting done! I'm nearing the quilting phase of my quilt and i'm so excited!!! I though I would give better pictures because the last one I put up was horrible.  -Amber :)

So much of the front done!! :) (7/13 rows!)
On other ladies' quilt blogs, they always have pictures of their cuddly little cats lounging all over their quilts. I was jealous, so I had my silly little dog Jake lay on mine! I guess he does just as well.
The backing fabric along side the front, I think that the colors are going to look great together!!!
(ignore that cheese-it on the quilt, we had to get the dog to sit still somehow!;)

Progress!

I'm so excited that i'm actually getting closer to a finished quilt! Yesterday I went to joanns and got my backing fabric and some warm & natural! My mom swears that green and pink don't match, but my quilt is going to look lovely :) I have sewn 4 rows and 9 more rows of blocks to go! Sorry for the poor picture quality.

Hey everyone!

So, I haven't posted in almost a month. For a quilt update, all of my 195 squares are sewed half ways, and I half 100 left to square off! Maybe on the weekend. Batting coming soon. For today's post though, I thought I would share my thimble collection! I have collected them since I saw one when I was little and though it was so pretty! I didn't even know what it was for, and it says September (my birthday is in March). So far I have 27 thimbles. Today I was gifted 4 new thimbles that my boyfriends mom found! Someday I hope to snatch a few from my grandma's  lovely collection. Here is a picture of all of them lined up, maybe soon I will do a few close ups! I will try to post as soon as I can! Please come back to read more.
