There just isn't enough time in the day to finish them and list them early enough so people can buy and receive them by December 1st.<br /><br />I have finished one more advent calendar but will have to give up on the other 3 that I have been working on for a few months now. I will just have to finish them early next year in time for the holiday season. I also regret not having had any time to make other seasonal items in both the quilt shop and the crafts shop such as Christmas decorations, tree decor, paper garlands, cards, placemats etc. but next year I'll just have to start earlier with that.<br /><br />So here is the advent calendar, reversible again with a funky wonky design in Kona cotton solids on the back.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOf9Ig4szmwDk_Nh9TmlNvZzja2jm4PS5Uf3J4aIWt49JroXOYe-5j_BZuiU2G0T0SCPlZCQlLn19zIxXNgd8ttT6UbYLTjsw-r3tOgWtQUt2-r61VQihfermLHWapRNSGhSbfgVzvFiw/s1600/DSCF7626.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 278px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOf9Ig4szmwDk_Nh9TmlNvZzja2jm4PS5Uf3J4aIWt49JroXOYe-5j_BZuiU2G0T0SCPlZCQlLn19zIxXNgd8ttT6UbYLTjsw-r3tOgWtQUt2-r61VQihfermLHWapRNSGhSbfgVzvFiw/s320/DSCF7626.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5672271877202594370" border="0" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0sb0KNHT05qRl5leT5xEr1vzfvYYo0OsrlHrvdTu1U33XB15G2t1wEfC5Lh8RDc0Aj1b3DA5eysOAc3WiT7j9nw54GPNulAUlhCt9RquDwhbJdt-AWQY7Fs08h6ApIK6u0znJtronZe8/s1600/DSCF7627.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 302px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0sb0KNHT05qRl5leT5xEr1vzfvYYo0OsrlHrvdTu1U33XB15G2t1wEfC5Lh8RDc0Aj1b3DA5eysOAc3WiT7j9nw54GPNulAUlhCt9RquDwhbJdt-AWQY7Fs08h6ApIK6u0znJtronZe8/s320/DSCF7627.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5672271870727013618" border="0" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXvKIWt67abpMYH9LPaTDFs_KwgBUT7zkXJsBMgZN8eEEGRXXZ2aj5sK8CwJMhXeWoc5KkwbYil-3lNMUGUlKz0MdaeoTzqYCeEdTqJHClTkTzsFZJltCXpDrxc4vofIbyCUROdmubbDo/s1600/DSCF7621.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXvKIWt67abpMYH9LPaTDFs_KwgBUT7zkXJsBMgZN8eEEGRXXZ2aj5sK8CwJMhXeWoc5KkwbYil-3lNMUGUlKz0MdaeoTzqYCeEdTqJHClTkTzsFZJltCXpDrxc4vofIbyCUROdmubbDo/s320/DSCF7621.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5672271864938297874" border="0" /></a><br /><br />What do you think?

Hey everyone,<br />
<br />
I have been really busy and am still behind in blogging the newest creations. So here is another new quilt, a baby boy quilt, which I absolutely adore.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsiw_0y6C84IzizjQjx4CbM_LBxIAalsBGWmxStoogHiFqfD0oFCJjGc1ZtYBhwXskAmBqpnqBkh7BcXHH2uPzF-Hyys9RjSMdLNBI4SvDRU3IzcEkmPUqbosgOr41u7ZgeZz0vkrMDGw/s1600/DSCF7030.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsiw_0y6C84IzizjQjx4CbM_LBxIAalsBGWmxStoogHiFqfD0oFCJjGc1ZtYBhwXskAmBqpnqBkh7BcXHH2uPzF-Hyys9RjSMdLNBI4SvDRU3IzcEkmPUqbosgOr41u7ZgeZz0vkrMDGw/s320/DSCF7030.JPG" width="320" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
The back is so soft and fluffy made with super cuddly blue fleece and on the top I used some Central Park fabric which I had been dying to cut into.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh04gqMTL5hIrkxiKhAq_8_g-_KBAKSxzcphzUgj94XcLwz42A1oYpO6o2FY4zPDsAZ5DJSCUi3KRTX-FlhVxosR_xjvtay0_2-kqhjrP0ALUiNuFuZDv7aMQqJX6FSmEWZ1bkq7wVd0lc/s1600/DSCF7021.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh04gqMTL5hIrkxiKhAq_8_g-_KBAKSxzcphzUgj94XcLwz42A1oYpO6o2FY4zPDsAZ5DJSCUi3KRTX-FlhVxosR_xjvtay0_2-kqhjrP0ALUiNuFuZDv7aMQqJX6FSmEWZ1bkq7wVd0lc/s320/DSCF7021.JPG" width="320" /></a><br />
<br />
I used a simple design, you know I like those best because they bring out the lovely colors and fabrics better, and I used some Kona Charcoal for the first time ever and I love it. It creates an amazing contrast to the strong bright colors in the Central Park. And as per usual I quilted it in straight lines, outlines actually, I still can't do a meandering stitch on my machine and really need to get that sorted.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglnsosggOFh8h2ne2WQK1qD5ucUdsoiECkP9_HTJMteI4xnybgsf-KHLd8H7oN3Xw5JSbQUhmkbXv3UT8YEE7Z1dPkKXzc4c5kwZL4BNhSZeGFy0p7dL9RiWe65PQUcOWtY7d1h2bvdjc/s1600/DSCF7020.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglnsosggOFh8h2ne2WQK1qD5ucUdsoiECkP9_HTJMteI4xnybgsf-KHLd8H7oN3Xw5JSbQUhmkbXv3UT8YEE7Z1dPkKXzc4c5kwZL4BNhSZeGFy0p7dL9RiWe65PQUcOWtY7d1h2bvdjc/s320/DSCF7020.JPG" width="320" /></a><br />
<br />
It is 42" x 42", so should be perfect as a baby quilt, right?<br />
<br />
<br />
What do you think? Do you like it?<br />
<br />
I listed it on <b><a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/82021373/baby-boy-quilt-central-park-with-minkee">Etsy</a></b> but it was hard, I tell you. I would definitely keep this quilt if I had a baby.<br />
<br />
Lots of love from York,<br />

back of the wardrobe to only get it back out one year later? <br /><br />Well,
not this one. When Christmas has come and gone you just turn it around
and use the back as a decorative wallhanging. The hanging sleeve has
been attached to the top rather than the back so both sides of the quilt
can be displayed. <br />
<br />It's my first finished advent calendar and may I just say <b>IT TOOK ME FOREVER</b>, I can make a quilt faster than that, but the numbers and the pockets took forever to sew. I will make more advent calendars but need to figure ot how to make them faster or they won't be ready in time for xmas. I also just bought some more Christmas fabrics for children, so I better get back to it.<br />
<br />
What do you think of this one? Do you like it? The blocks are a little wonky, especially on the lefthand side, and I made that clear in the <b><a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/81548629/reversible-advent-calendar-doublesided">Etsy listing</a></b> too. Do you think that is ok? <br />
<br />
Lots of love,<br />

I am so chuffed.<br />

That's a record. She was ordered by a customer who wants to give the Owl to her friend who lost her baby Olivia. That must be one of the most horrible things to happen to a person and my heart goes out to her.<br />

It happened to a friend of mine too, her baby Betty died only a few weeks after birth, and it was the most devastating thing I have seen in my life.<br />
<br />
All my love goes out to the mums who have lost a little one. I cannot even imagine the pain you have experienced.<br />
<br />

<br />
I just realized today that I haven't bought any fabrics lately and only picked up some nice ones at the Festival of Quilts, but for once I am not actually craving any new fabrics.<br />
<br />
Normally there is always some fabric that I REALLY REALLY REALLY WANT, something that I just have to wait a little and save up for, but right now I want nothing. Is there something wrong with me? I must be ill (apart from the nasty cold I have at the moment).<br />
<br />
I think I need some more Christmas fabrics to make more Christmas goodies for the shop, but I don't necessarily want any new fabrics.<br />
<br />
So have you got any suggestions for me? Any new fabric lines that you totally adore and that I need to check out? Feel free to post links.<br />

<br />
<br />Yep, I am getting old next week and you did see that right, I am celebrating with a <span style="font-weight: bold;">35% SALE</span> in both shops, from today until the 31st of August, because let's face it, at some point I need to accept that I am now closer to 40 than 30 and I could use some of that lovely cake to ease the pain.
<br />
<br />Being 35 can't be that much worse than 34, or can it?
<br />
<br />Argh, where is that cake !!!
<br />
<br />But I am sticking to it, there is a <span style="font-weight: bold;">35% SALE in both shops</span>, because one percent for each year of my life doesn't seem all that much now, does it?
<br />
<br />The discount will be deducted automatically at the checkout so go check it out, see what I did there, my brain still works even at almost 35. :)
<br />
<br />You can shop for papercrafts here:
<br />
<br /><a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/nadinesaupe">Paper Scissors Butterfly Kissers</a>
<br />
<br />and you find the quilts and plush toys and lots of other stuff here:
<br />
<br /><a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/QuiltedBlissByNadine">Quilted Bliss by Nadine</a>
<br />
<br />Now on to the othe rimportant bit, <span style="font-weight: bold;">pressies</span>, I wouldn't mind such a nice cake if you got one lying around. And now that I am getting old it's too late to watch ahem, *cough* , the figure anyway, right? Might as well tuck in.
<br />
<br />Lots of love,
<br />Nadine xx
<br />
<br />PS: You can find that lovely cake <a href="http://howaboutorange.blogspot.com/2010/05/sugarcoat-it-studio-cakes.html">here.</a>
