Hugs & Kisses


Hugs and Kisses Blog Hop

oh Valentine's day how I love thee..
It's wonderful now that I've been married for 
3 years or so..
And with the baby on the way 
how could it get any better..

I love lots of colors.. 
and this project was sew much fun.
I found it started from many, many moons ago 
in my UFO box.. 
Sew, I finished it for the blog hop..
The fabric for the hearts & the backgrounds around them 
are hand dyes I did a long time ago 
when I was first learning how to quilt.. 
I think it turned out quite nicely.
& now it has a nice little home hanging on my 
sewing room wall...

I subscribe to a service called 'Birchbox'
Birchbox is a company that sends you a little box of 
cosmetic goodies once a month.
It's great.. 
But, now I have all these boxes.
Sew I covered it in fabric..
& made a cute little valentines box.. 
Inside, there is 3 fat quarters of fabric.. 

So.. if you want to WIN the box..
this is what you need to do:

1. Let me know what your favorite type of Valentine's candy is?? 

If you are a no-reply-blogger PLEASE leave me an 
e-mail address.. If I can't respond to you, 
you can't win the cute box& fabric.. 


Rosie & Gizmo will draw a name 
Saturday Feb 16th!!




xoxo~ I want to thank Madmm Samm & Jane for having such a wonderful little hop.. 
& for letting me be a part of it as well~ oxox

Please check out these other wonderful ladies on the hop:

    Your mini quilt is so sweet. I like that way you found a UFO and gave it some love and finished it for this hop. Wonderful way to recycle the box. My favorite type of Valentine candies are dark chocolate. I have a bag of Dove dark chocolate hearts that my hubby brought me home right now .... mmmmmm!

    Thanks for sharing ... XOXOXO ... :) Pat

    I love your heart quilt. I have never heard of Birchbox before. You found a winner in this UFO I usually find duds. My favorite Valentines candy is Andes Mints or Brachs Large Conversation Hearts.

    What a beautiful wallhanging or mini! Great colors and design! It's wonderful that you were able to finish a UFO as well, extra points!! hee I love how you "re-did" the boxes for storage, just lovely! My favorite candy, for Valentine's Day, or anyday actually, hehe would be milk chocolate and if peanut butter was combined somehow, even better.

    Thank you for a super giveaway and a chance to win.

    I don't really eat much candy, but when I do it's peppermint flavored, usually a candy cane or peppermint altoids...does that count? I don't like chocolate.
    Now, onto your heart. I absolutely love royal purple and red together. It is the only way I will use red (I just don't like red...don't even have any red fabric except two scrap pieces left over from a challenge project, which I did in brilliant reds and a bunch of royal purple, and quilted in extra dark orchid). Anyway, I love your color choice and thank you for the chance to win a nice little gift.

    Hi Laura Anne. Congratulations and best wishes on your new arrival. Be sure to get in a lot of sewing before the baby comes as your time will not be your own when you have a little one to care for. I don't have a favorite Valentine candy, but do like dark chocolate and cinnamon jelly bellies. Those cute little hearts are so traditional, but chalky in texture. Thanks for sharing your work with us.

    Oooh, great boxes are a definite love of mine! Currently my smaller or new UFOs are stored in corn dog boxes - they're hinged and perfectly sized. Of course, they all look alike, so it's an adventure if I'm looking for one project in particular!

    Oh - and it's conversation hearts. But not the 'new' flavors. They taste like soap. Okay, then. Maybe not conversation hearts. Jordan Almonds... those are a goody that are in style all the way through Easter!

I love almost any kind of See's chocolate, but I think mine, (and my family's) favorite is called Bordeaux. it's kind of a mocha flavor, but not too heavy, with either milk or dark chocolate on the outside, and little chocolate sprinkles on the top..simply delicious!
