I turned on my sewing machine again and laid out t I turned on my sewing machine again and laid out this lovely quilt on the floor so I could sew the blocks together (I'm still in the process of unpacking and organizing my sewing room - so scrunched on the floor is the best I have right now 😏) ...and then I spent my night marco poloing a friend. ðŸĪĶ‍♀ïļ So now to put it away again and turn off the machine. BUT I got closer!! So I'm calling that a win! AND I did make some awesome business plans for this year!! So I'm so so excited and happy to feel like I finally have some direction, and that saying goodbye to quilting is off the table. I'm sticking around y'all!! 😘🎉 Now to find the time to actually implement everything... But I'm excited nonetheless. 😉

Hello! It's been forever!! How are you?! I've miss Hello! It's been forever!! How are you?! I've missed you! âĪïļ and I hope you're well and have survived 2020. One day left, knock on wood (can you imagine if there were suddenly MORE days added onto 2020?! ðŸ˜ģðŸ˜ģ), we've got this. 👊😆

I'm doing well. Things are good. Though I feel completely directionless with so many things - I'm not sure what the future holds for anything really - including quilting, but I was very happy to turn on my sewing machine tonight! I didn't sew anything. And I'm not sure I've sewn anything at all in the last 4 months. But it's on! And my sewing room is fairly clean. And that means that I CAN sew something if I want to now. 😁🎉 Maybe I'll start with finishing that stack of quilts next to my machine. 😉

Happy New Year's Eve eve! 🎉

Hey y'all!! It's been a while since I've even logg Hey y'all!! It's been a while since I've even logged into my IG account, so I thought I'd say hi and introduce myself to all my new friends. 😘 Thanks for following along!

I'm Diane! I have 6 kiddos and moved back to my home town of Logan, UT last month. It's been awesome!! And an adjustment. It's been full-time parenting, unpacking, and playing in the mountains. âĪïļ My heart is full and my mind and body are exhausted. ðŸĪĢ And I have barely had a moment to work - hopefully as we get more settled I'll have more time to jump back into the routine and finish up more patterns for you!! 😁

In the meantime, I hope you'll keep sharing all the awesome projects you're making and be sure to tag me and #fbppatterns so we don't miss any of them!! 😘 I'll try and share them in my stories as I see them! I love sharing all of your amazing talent and creativity! Keep it up! âĪïļ

It's finished!!! And it's been mailed! ðŸ“Ū I'm st It's finished!!! And it's been mailed! ðŸ“Ū I'm still a bit dumbstruck by how long that hand quilting actually took me... ðŸ˜ģ Though I will say it was absolutely worth it! That texture for a pillow is ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐! I hope my partner thinks so too! I added a few extra goodies in the package, and it should arrive soon. âĪïļ #fbpswap

In other news, now it's crunch time to pack up my house in 2 weeks time, find a place to live, and move across the country! I found a dream house and I'm 🙏ðŸĪžðŸ™ðŸĪžðŸ™ that no one applied before me (ug - the joys of going back to renting) and that we can finally know we have a place to go that is just right for us. (Please send your prayers my way! Life is so beyond stressful right now 😭 - not counting covid life, or that 2 hurricanes are headed our way in the next few days. 😎ðŸĪŠðŸ˜­ðŸĪŊðŸ˜ģ Add on top of that really hurtful people and I'd say it's actually probably just a classic 2020. Quite boring really. ðŸ˜īðŸ˜ī) I can't wait for this transition time to be over and done with so I can finally breathe again. 😔

I know, I know. I'm still not done. ðŸĪĶðŸŧ‍♀ I know, I know. I'm still not done. ðŸĪĶðŸŧ‍♀ïļ But I'm determined to finish it tonight!!! 😎 (With this being my first sashiko project I had absolutely no idea that it would take me this long... Not including the typical, "oh, it'll be fast" miscalculation that is automatically included in every project, because EVERYTHING always takes longer than you'd think. 🙄ðŸĪĢ ) #fbpswap #fbpcelestialstar

In other news, we have BIG life changes coming up, including selling our home (we have a buyer!! Wahoo!!), moving across the country, finding a place to live, still being undecided about what to do with school even though my time to decide has expired and I'm now a delinquent mom (moving makes everything so complicated!) ðŸĪŊ😔

Oh life... I can't wait to be in the mountains, to smell that fresh dry air and hear the wind rustle through the trees as it rolls down the mountainside, to sit on the shelly shores of Bear Lake and feel the sun tanning my skin. To hear the laughter of my brothers and sisters as we'll be able to spend so much more time together. Life is hard. I anticipate some of the hardest days ahead. But they don't get me down. What I hold onto are the little things. The magical things that breathe life into my soul. Oh, I can't wait to be home!

I had a last minute change of plans on how to quil I had a last minute change of plans on how to quilt this and decided to hand quilt a sashiko design for the background. ðŸĪĶðŸŧ‍♀ïļðŸ˜ðŸ˜ I was also planning on finishing it today and getting it out in the mail, also today. But instead I got a text saying that someone wanted to come walk through our house. (Yay!!) So all plans went out the window and we cleaned instead. 🙄 PLEASE pray that we get a buyer! 🙏🙏 We are living in complete limbo, beyond what covid is doing to all of us, and I'd love to have some kind of structure and certainty. ðŸĪžðŸĪž We reeeeeeeaaaallllly need to sell our home. 😎

Anyway, this will get finished asap. I've LOVED #sashiko for so long and this is actually my first time using it, and I am in love! I hope you love it too! 😘âĪïļ
