My valentines .. 

For those who know me, know I'm not a huge fan of paper-piecing.

It's not my favorite thing.

 Upon, asking to do this hop,

 I didn't know until I got the pattern..

 Surprise!?!

So, I decided to give it another shot..

With the bigger pieces it was easier & fun.

 I enjoyed it.

I had the best of intentions today to get it quilted..

 But, with a thriving 8 month old

I found there aren't as many hours in a day as I would like.

 And well, our neighbor across our street ran into our mail box too.. 

So, there was that to attend to as well.. 

I would like to take a moment to thank madm samm for hosting this blog hop. 

Now to the giveaway..

 I'll be picking a name February 20th 2014

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??
