bento box

My bento box is done!!! Hip Hip Hooray!! I LOVE it. THERE ARE A LOT OF SEAMS THOUGH!!!! But what is encouraging is that I'm improving on my seams. They are matching up! I still haven't finished the very first quilt I've ever made yet because it looks horrible and seams are one of the reasons. I've been challenged by a friend to finish it before the month is up. We'll see.:)

It's fun to have a splash of orange. This is going to go at the end of my new queen size guest bedroom quilt. Which is now called Cool Breeze. I'm going to sew up the back today and pin it so I can start quilting it!!!!!

Lastly, here is my little Ruby asleep on my grocery bags. She is such a little honey. With all the fresh air she has been getting lately (due to the nicer weather) she has been pooped more! :) We are very thankful for that!!:) Hope you have a great day!!

  8. Fantastic quilt! I love the pop of orange. Is Ruby a Carin Terrier? I had one when I was little - she looks so sweet!
