Eye Candy

So after Christmas and all the sewing I had done I took a few week break. I have since made a whole new batch of boy swaddling blankets and burp clothes on my new serger and hopefully will get pictures up in the next week. I have to say that I LOVE my new serger! It sews and threads like a dream. If any of you have used a serger you know that the threading of one can be a nightmare. The serger I got after Christmas is a Bernina 1150 MDA with automatic threader and micro thread control.

I just had hand surgery this past Thursday on a ganglion cyst that popped up this past October, right in the middle of all my Christmas sewing. This has my hand in a splint for the next 2 weeks and then I should be good to go. Today I stopped at a local quilt store just to look and got lucky that they had these patterns on sale. Amy Butler caught my attention last fall with some of her beautiful patterns in fabric I started seeing online. This book and patterns will give me something lovely and new to ponder while my hand is recuperating!
