dots on dots Blog Hop

I am so thankful to be a part of this blog hop. Thank you Madame Samm over at Sew We Quilt for being such a great inspiration to so many. Thank you also to Corrie over at Quilt Taffy for hosting this hop. We thank both of you for bring us all together in our love of dots. 

Right after I signed up to be a part of this blog hop I started thinking about what I wanted to make. It took me about 5 minutes. HA HA! I love dots, I love hexies, and I love rainbows. I put all three together and came up with this beauty. I wished I had taken a picture of all the hexies stacked up. I made 42 hexies. I then hand sew them all together in rows. I pinned them down and machine sewed them to a piece of white Kona. 

I then auditioned all kinds of dot fabric for the binding. I had four pieces out until I decided on a piece of black with dots. Here it is all bound. I love how the black corrals them all together. 

This is the back. I added corner hanging triangles so that I can put it on my wall. I even had fun drawing on the back to add a label. 

Thank you for stopping by. Please take some time to stop by the other blogs on today's hop. You will love everybody's creations. If you have missed any of the blogs go back and take a look. Also there is one more day left so don't forget about hopping tomorrow.

Maniac Monday

I have not done much for two weeks. The first week after taking DD#1 to college was hard. The second week was better. I feel much better now. I feel like I can get a lot done today. 

Here are months May and July of my Saturday Sampler Stitcheries I have been doing. They are so fun. The pattern says to make them into little pillows. I am not sure If that is what I am going to do are make them into a little quilt. 

These two blocks are from my partner from Block Swap Adventure. They are both so great. I sweet Fall one and then a very pretty bright one. Thank you!!

I made two of these blocks for my Let's Bee Together partner. They are so pretty. I love that fabric. 

Before my DD#1 left for college we went to a near by river and took some family pictures. Here is DS and his wife. They have been married for over 1 year now. 

 Here is my husband, DD#1, DD#2 and me. 

Here is a fun picture of me and Jayden, the little guy I am watching for my brother and sister-in-law. He is a sweety!!

 Last week was Homecoming Week in my small town. We go TDed. I hate that!! Here is our front yard. You know I don't mind all the paper on the ground, it is so much easier to clean up then the stuff in the tree. She that piece there in that tree, my husband can't even reach it. Now we get to watch it fall apart all winter long. Darn those high schoolers!!!

I forgot to post this two weeks ago. So here it is, LOL!

 Here is a fun picture of my baby, LOL! 

Well this is the week. I take my daughter to college on Wednesday then come home without her on Thursday. She will be there until December 15th. I will be strong but on the way home I WILL CRY!!! We had her 18th birthday yesterday and it was a blast!! My husband was murdered and my daughter-in-law was the murderer. We did a Murder Mystery Party, no she really did not kill him, HA HA! We had so much fun. I need to get a few things worked on tomorrow. We will have our PQA meeting tomorrow and it will be DD#1 last one until next year.  That sounds weird.
