Too Scared

I want to do another post, I have the photo(s), BUT I'm too scared. My son isn't here and is too busy to help me. How do you like that, kids busier than parents? I'm not confident enough with the picture part of this whole adventure. If I tried it right now on my own, it would take me an hour. We quilters just don't have that kind of time~~Right? I'll get there...
Last night I was up late cutting and creating. I'm doing the JOY pattern by Thimbleblossoms. Most often, cutting takes longer than the actual sewing for me. I've also been making Christmas pillowcases, not late~ just early. I want to get these Christmas things done while I'm "in the spirit" and while Christmas fabric is on sale!!! For Valentine's Day, I'm seriously eyeing the Raggy Hearts quilt that Cheryl posted over on her blog at polkadotsandrickrack. (See I don't even know how to post a link!)
Monday night my good ol' Singer konked out. It needed two new gears. I found a gentleman right here 4 minutes from my house that fixed it right up in no time. Good for another 31 years! I am thinking about sewing machines for my two college daughers. He advised me on what to get~he has been in the business for many years. Thanks Scott.
Take Care~~maybe I'll be back tonight with some photos~something vintage ~~again...
