 Look at the beautiful Waverly fabrics which came in the mail!  I won a total of 6 yards of decorator fabrics and also a stylus and earbuds from Creature Comforts. I have no idea what I’ll be making yet.

 Sew Mama Sew winner is Bee – congratulations and I will be emailing you!

I am sorry that I didn’t visit anyone in my Linky Party last week and never replied to the comments on my giveaway. Computer crashes are no fun. I have a cute little red micro mouse!

 I am getting used to my new computer…a powerhouse Lenovo and Builder Bob got a Gateway for his work….games.  Builder Bob and I got a crash course on Windows 8.1 and so far……we are doing pretty good. He is excited about all the games he can play.

I really, really thought I had done a good job on backing up my files but……I didn’t. I lost almost everything from the last 3 months as I backed up on my D drive which is actually part of the C drive. I have a EHD but I was “organizing” my files and hadn’t copied them.

My computer guy still has my old computer and will see if he can retrieve the data but if he can’t I will survive. I will miss the photo and EQ projects I was working on but no worries…..I’ll just have t recreate them. I am going to start using my Microsoft SkyDrive to backup photos and files.

I have EQ7, Photoshop and Adobe reader already installed. I will need to buy Microsoft Office and I don’t know if my ancient copy of Illustrator will work….bummer. Lots of other things to install and learn.

I forgot to mention that the front brakes also went out on my Jeep this week……$368 for brakes and rotors…..hopefully this week will be better!

Tomorrow will be the first day of the AccuQuilt Block Party Blog Hop and my day will be Wednesday! AcuQuilt just released 11 new dies and we will be sharing projects.

Sneak Peak at a project……look at those beautiful Island Batiks!

Have you seen the QAL that Vicki Welsh from Field Trips in Fiber is doing? I saw a post on Exuberant Color and Wanda is making a beautiful batik quilt. I also love half square triangles and have the 6 inch and 3 inch AccuQuilt dies and…….lots of batiks! I’m joining!

    Love the new additions! I agree with Sarah above, what a great idea! Do you think the auto mechanic will go for it?

    Yay for fabric! Boo for brakes. I just had to get new ones too. Why can't you pay for car repairs with fabric? It'd be so much easier, and you could get rid of fabric you were no longer in love with. 😀
