Dropping In

The summer has started off with lots of activity - some expected and some unexpected, so it's going to take me a bit to get caught up and blog about all of our exciting adventures. So in the mean time, I thought some of you might like to check out this online auction on eBay.
Last Fall Heather contributed a few things to the first Craft for China charity auction and when she decided to join again this Spring, I decided to join her. Friday before heading out to spend the holiday weekend in St. Louis with my parents, I mailed off three mini quilts (made from donated fabric scraps and left over materials I had on hand) and one burp cloth bundle for the auction. I am particularly pleased with the free motion quilting I did on this quilt, and love the yo-yo embellishment's on this quilt (and people have actually started bidding on this one!!)

Hopefully my contributions will help bring the charity a few extra dollars. There are some amazing handmade things contributed by very talented artists. If you're looking to do a little early Christmas shopping, consider bidding on some of these items, and let your money do double duty!
