My third Libby Quilt top is done. I really like this one. Even after having to rip out seams, it is going to be a favorite..JPG)
Too cute. Those baskets are 4 inch blocks set on point. .JPG)
Now to plan out the next one.School is not going well this year. It is one frustrating day after another....I took control yesterday, so I am assuming the better day we had today was not a fluke. After an incredibly stressful morning yesterday, I told Sweetheart I just HAD to get out of there for a while. Where did I go? Acorn Quilts, of course! I grabbed a yard of a beautiful black fabric (not pictured) I need and can be used in several projects. Also, 2 half yard cuts...another black (which I used as the borders for the above Libby Quilt),and a pretty floral...another perfect Libby Quilt fabric.

6 different fat quarters.....THESE are my favorites and I think I may get some actual yardage of that large floral..JPG)
Some yellow, cause you gotta have some yellow..JPG)
And this interesting piece. A great Libby Quilt border, I think..JPG)
All in all ,that fabric therapy cost me 33 dollars. Blessedly, I got an unexpected $60 check. Still, it is not something I will be able to do very often, so those kids better pull it together QUICK!!!.JPG)
I am really concentrated on the Hidden Star. I am at the count down! 9 blocks to go! I can not WAIT to have this thing finished!!!!.JPG)
Tonight is church and tomorrow is a day with my mom. Both activities I look forward to. That silly cat! She just lands her butt where ever she pleases!.JPG)
She got the spray bottle just after this pic was taken! Her expression was the same as in this pic where we were telling her to get down....a "Who me? How dare you" look!

That is adorable...
Love the little baskets so adorable. The fabrics you chose are awesome, what a great find. Sorry you are having issues with home schooling, will say another prayer for you.
Sweet! I think that is my favorite "Libby" quilt too! It is darling!
and I must say, Sassy looks so beautiful on your Fall table!! She was just posing for a pretty picture Mommy!!
What a cute little quilt!! I love the colors....it looks so elegant.
Your new fabrics are beautiful, that large floral is fantastic...it's my favorite one too :0)
9 blocks to go is a wonderful feeling...the end is near. I'm happy to hear that others get bored with a large project like I do but stick with it until it's done. Then I love the project all over again :0)

Yummmm! Love all the fabric. Boy, If I didn't have ten children and a husband, I would be a quilt maker!!!!! LOL! I love fabrics for quilts now. I have been working on a quilt for about three years now.
My 2 dd's joined up for a quilt swap and are getting all their pieces and we are just so excited to begin (me, again LOL!) our quilts!
Oh...it looks like the kitty is like, "Mua, do'ns undrastan ze engla-shhhh..." LOL!!!!
Hugs sweet Bren!
Being as it is October and the *decorations are going up* I am committing to pray for C each time I pass them...
Also just felt led to share, though I don't know your specific homeschool struggle, that for each of my children they had a "puberty brain fuzz year" where they really struggled to think clearly. For my boys it was 7th grade and for my daughter it was 6th.
Fortunately homeschooling is a marathon and not a sprint!!
Praying today is a good one!

Sometimes we all need some fabric therapy! Your Libby quilt is adorable!
Did you forget that Cats have servants? LOL!
She is cute. Love your quilting.
Such gorgeousness Bren!
You know what I am gonna say but I have to say it~ you are "sew talented"!!!!
I wish we lived close so you could teach me to quilt~I am too much of a chicken to try on my own.
What a darling cat! *Ü*
Praying about the homeschooling!♥
I use a spray bottle, too. Seems to work pretty well...Smokey doesn't get on the table or counters anymore...at least not when I'm home.
