I'm still sewing my hearts onto my muslin squares. I've got 20 left. Will you forgive me? I promise I will be up to speed next week and ready to move on.
So I decided on a very random post today. I'm all caught up in the first week of school happenings, deadlines for the new book, and stillllllllllll working on the house. (Door trim and doors are back up, now they need to be painted.)
How about a picture of some of my arts and crafts books? It's lovely isn't it? Sigh...
I heart books.
Sara is one of my daily reads and she showcased Meg today (awesome blog!), and that is where I found this really fun meme. (Just to add to the randomness of this post today)

So nice to get to know you, Chrissie! I love the quote from Erma Bombeck.
I have been visitng your blog from Southern Hospitality for several weeks but newver commented and have vistied your store befor but couldn't make up mind because all your things are so great. Commenting today for Joy's hope give away. I agree with your quote I don't want to have any talent left when I stand before God and I want to hear well done my good and faithful servant.
I've been so busy these past couple of weeks that I am behind on the heart quilt, too. I'm still cutting my hearts so am glad for the break! I hope I can get some sewn onto the squares by next week ... look forward to the next step!
