Look here! I finished a project yesterday! I hadn't plan to buy anything on my last visit to the quilt shop, but I saw the charm pack of Candy Kisses from Sandy Gervais so of course it came home with me along with some coordinating fat quarters. I kind of made up my own design, bravely did some free motion quilting and ended up with a nice little February table topper. Just don't look at the back - which of course I would never photograph anyway. I'm still having a little tension problem with the free motion stitches but I'm still practicing. 
Check out my side bar for a couple of new "buttons". Mrs. Goodneedle over at the Strawberry Patch is going to be hosting Lets' Talk every Tuesday. So next Tuesday, stop by and say hello and make a comment on the Tuesday topic. This week it was "how long have you been quilting and why do you continue?" She's provided a cute little strawberry so you can click on it to hop on over for a visit. Then I also signed up for the Siggy Swap that Connie and some other ladies are putting together. I think she still has room for a few more in the swap. We'll all be making blocks with our signature on them, sending to one location then we'll each receive 45-60 blocks, one from each participate. Of course there's a deadline to get them done, so hopefully I'll not procrastinate and be late!

Instead, here's a link to the Lentil Soup that I've been making lately. I use turkey sausage instead, trying to make it a little lighter. Some of you have commented on my cookie header. Those were made last year and are long gone! I guess I should find something else to put up there so not to tempt you with sugar cookies!

Everytime I look at your blog I see those dang sugar cookies which happen to be my all time favorite cookie. LOL!!!
Love your little heart quilt. It's very cute.
Thanks for the publicity! The check's in the mail ;) Seriously, come back next Tuesday... this is fun! I love the heart quilt, it's GREAT!
We won't be looking at your quilting 'cause that heart is just too dang cute. I need to get my siggy swap thingy on my sidebar too -- it's just a little bit of work!
I love the heart table topper Mom. You did a really good job on the free motion. You're better at it then you think,
Love the table topper.
What a fund project and you stippled! It looks great Janet.
