Leave a comment about...........I know the obvious would be which charm pack would you pick. Well, missy, we're not going there today.
I just want to know what you're doing today.
I have no idea what I will be doing today because it's not really today, yet.
It's Wednesday. Shhhh, don't tell anyone. I'm really getting ready for bed. Shhhhh. Don't wake the baby.
Random drawing tomorrow night.
Uh, I mean TONIGHT.
Yes, Tonight, Thursday night.
Good Luck!
lol It is Thursday here....and I've just got home from work and decided to reward myself with a mooch around blogland while I cool off! It has been HOT here today....roll on autumn! Being Thursday means going to the local Chinese for dinner....and then stitching on a biscornu! Have a wonderful Wednesday/Thursday!

Where I'm at it's Thursday afternoon! I spent the morning shopping for fabric because my sister and mother insist I make clothes for them now that I know how to. I'll probably have to spend the rest of the day washing and hanging out the fabric while watching some tv in between :D
ReplyDeleteBest wishes!
It's Thursday evening for me right now.
ReplyDeleteToday I quilted a table runner and tonight I plan on hand stitching the binding on.
It's a Thursday morning here in Italy. Sunny, but cold... Today I have to seed few things: basil, parsley... I adore fresh & aromatic leafs.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice day!
It's around lunch-time here in Norway. We have cloudy, foggy weather, snow, and the sea is calm!
ReplyDeleteI am home from work with a sick child, trying to get some housework (boring) done, and also trying do clean up my sewing-room (a little less boring, but still boring)...
We are both waiting for a father/husband and older siblings/children to come home for the week-end/winter-break! This was quite confusing...LOL
Since housework isn't the things I like the most, I'm surfing around in blog-land! And I enjoy it!
Have a wonderful day, no matter what you are doing!
I will be making fabric thank you and birthday postcards out of selvages. thanks for the chance to win the giveaway!
ReplyDeletei will be cutting fabric, organizing my sewing room and shipping some packages. if i am lucky i may get some sewing done.

ReplyDeletehope your day is as good,
Sue..
Sadly, I am working...but I sure do wish I was sewing the top of a quilt together.
ReplyDeleteToday I am going for the dreaded "annual checkup". Would much rather be home quilting or reading blogs about quilting.
ReplyDeleteIt is Thursday am here in the Midwest. I have to run to the post office and clean out the refrigerator. Then I will head to the sewing room to cut out another quilt kit to take to retreat on the 27th... Tonight I will sit and finish reading Homespun magazine that Granny Loz sent me....
ReplyDeleteToday, after work, I will be having a parent/teacher conference with for my first grader. Then hopefully, I will be catching up on some quilting since the children will be out of school till Wednesday.
ReplyDeleteoh. emm. gee.
ReplyDeletemoda is the devil, but i heart moda!!!
tehehehe.
what am i doing today:
getting packagaes ready to mail.
{4 seasons swap, 3 fat quarter swaps, spring quilt block swap, and my australia brushfire block.}
then i have to work on my calendar quilt challenge quilt.
along with my almost irish quilt.
all this coupled with 2 toodlers running around, while 1 of them is sick.
:O(
p.s. did i mention laundry???
hahaha.
What am I doing today? I just got back from Alaska visiting my dog musher son, and I am trying to adjust to the 4-hour time difference. Yawn.
ReplyDeleteIt is a snow day at school and my granddaughter is here who is ten and my grandson who is three is here like always. so I am busy. just fun things to do. Linda Gerig
ReplyDeleteToday I'll be working (from home) as usual. But it's supposed to be the warmest day yet this year in Seattle, so I'll play hookey a bit to walk my daughter to daycare, and maybe do some weeding. I'm ready to feel a little spring, even if it is only 53 degrees! :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm at work this morning and I'm supposed to be working, but, um, I'm reading blogs for a little bit first. You don't want to rush into a days work all at once. Much better to ease into these things slowly. After work today there will be grocery shopping, laundry and a quick dinner. If I have any energy left, I'll be working on a couple of quilt blocks for a swap I'm in while I watch Lifetime Movie Network. Oh yeah, I'll probably head to the fabric store on my lunch break for batting and thread since its on sale today.
ReplyDelete....going to the gym then sewing, sewing, sewing! Thurs. morn in freezing Elgin, IL
ReplyDeleteTypical day for me - up at 5:30 AM to do some quilting, working from home (on a conference call right now), laundry, dinner, walk the dog, watch The Office and ER.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win - you guys are the best.

I am working today, but wishing that I had another day off to do some of the things that I want to do. Like stiching on a small binding. And now I just might be dreaming about the lovely things I could make with a charm pack. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI am at work right now....wishing that I was at home relaxing and sewing something!
ReplyDeleteBlah to work!!
Work... then home for dinner, last night's LOST, and a shower before bed. Thrilling, I know!

its almost dinnertime for me, and soon i will be feeding the clan homemade pizzas!
ReplyDeleteI want to work on my 9 patch. But I really should go to Sam's and Kohl's. I also need to get a baby quilt done, some half square triangles made, and shoot some stuff off in the mail. Who knows what will really get done. LOL
ReplyDeleteUm, I think asking what charm I would like would be more interesting...because I'm just working today...and probably working late, at that! *sigh*
ReplyDeleteI'm quilting today. Hurray!!! I went to a quilt group yesterday and got some help with applique (badly needed), but I'm on a roll now. I don't have a blog, but you can e-mail me at rtolton@afconnect.com. Love your blog. Love, Tricia
ReplyDeleteToday, I have to do school, then I have Honor Society, then I have clogging tonight, and somewhere in there, I'm going to work some more on a vintage dress I sarted.
ReplyDeleteToday, well today I will be working.. work work work! But, tonight I will be addressing over 200 Wedding Invites.. I would MUCH rather be sewing though!
ReplyDeleteWell I'm TRYING to sew of course!!! But, my 3 yr old thinks I need to watch "toon-toons" (cartoons) with her! I'm torn! Thanks for a fun giveaway!
ReplyDeleteMona

It's Thursday now....I am off to a first grade field trip. I would rather be sewing.
ReplyDeleteI'm wishing over a Quilt magazine photo while I work. Kind of reminds me why I'm working, what I can do after work and makes everything less of a chore.
ReplyDeleteToday I'll be picking up my son at the airport for a long weekend visit. Haven't seen him since last summer!!!
ReplyDeleteI almost can't find the laundry room with the huge pile of dirty laundry in front of it. If I don't get it done, I'll have to hide in it!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to the hospital, for visit my brother!!! Today I can't sewing, and quilting...
ReplyDeleteI am doing nothing but organizing my house and trying to keep my boys from tearing it all apart!
ReplyDeleteLet's see....get kids ready, drop of kid, laundry, clean house, laundry, try to make sick baby nap, clean house, laundry, pick up kid, go to dance, come home, make dinner,feed kids, put laundry away,put kids to bed, work on Creative University stuff, go to bed, get up with sick baby, go to bed again......maybe I should just go back to bed know and skip all that....
ReplyDeleteHi, I am doing a load or two of laundry, then working on my tea swap project and watching my daughter play her B-Ball Game. got to run!!
ReplyDeleteToday...oh, I will work on piecing together a quilt when my son takes a nap. Other than that, I'll probably watch some Elmo's World and read some books to him! Should be fun. :)
ReplyDeleteI would love the sweet and make myself a table runner, sweets for the sweets! ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm at my Mom's today and we're going to make a quilt for a new grandbaby today. Fun, fun!

ReplyDeleteI'm at work, coding HTML pages, wishing I was at home working on my quilt!
ReplyDeleteToday I'm cleaning up my mess from yesterday. (Even though yesterday was organizing day- it always gets worse before it gets better right?)
ReplyDeleteI love reading your posts. They always give me a laugh! Anyway, today I'm cutting sashing for my daughter's quilt and thinking I need to hop in the shower while the baby is still asleep. Maybe I'll go to the store and I know I need to clean, but we'll see...Thanks for the Moda giveaway. Love charm packs!
ReplyDeleteToday I have to: clean the house, school with the kids (we home school), help with a sewing project each of my girls are working on, and start working on a new dress for myself.
ReplyDeleteNice giveaway! Thanks.
cleaning this office. wish me luck!
ReplyDeleteToday I'm trying to make myself clean out my closet. But its pretty scary so I will probably just go to Target instead and get popcorn and diet coke. Lovely fabric!!!! -Allison jollyrencher@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteThursday almost midday here in Boston; I'm wasting time on the internet when I should be focused on work. As is the norm. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteBut I love charm packs!
I am working today...whoo hoo, big fun...but at least we're ever closer to Friday! (rphmel30@yahoo.com)
ReplyDeleteI am in love with charm packs right now, great giveaway!
ReplyDeleteAs for today...my 3 year old and I were going to have a playdate until our friends apartment flooded when their water heater went out. We had other things planned to do today as well that aren't working out. So now, I think we're just going to stay home.
I have spent the morning working on birthday blocks for my online quilting group. Now it is lunch time and I am in blogland looking around! Gotta love it!
ReplyDeleteJeania
I'm hanging out with my kids. Not much on the agenda today--those days are nice once in a while!
ReplyDeletei am nursing 4 sick kids, hubby sick, and i am feeling under the weather, winning would sure make a positive in this otherwise crappy day, oh yeah, it's snowing out also
ReplyDeleteluv2knit@roadrunner.com
I'm just about to go to work...but I did spend my morning sewing.
ReplyDeleteToday I will be...SEWING! Yay! And going to the post office and also perhaps going to the fabric store. All around a pretty great day ahead of me!
ReplyDeleteI am home sick, looking at blogs to try and take my mind off how awful I feel. Thanks for the great giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI'm housesitting, so other than the farm chores and feeding the fire I don't have firm plans. I'll probably read and knit, and maybe bake cookies.
ReplyDeleteToday I am cleaning and packing and heading to the state hockey playoffs in Boise "GO BANTUM EAGLES" and U-14 and 19 GIRLS!!!!!" It will be lots of fun even better it is supposed to be 50 in Boise can't wait haven't seen those temps since last OCT...maybe I will bring shorts and wear them to the rink..Have a nice day!!!!
ReplyDeleteToday, well, let's see...Drs appt for the baby...clean house...homework...wanna trade? Have a good day!
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway, thanks! It's noon here and all I can think about is getting some lunch. I'm working, and thinking that a lunch break sounds like a good idea. I wish I were quilting, or sewing, or shopping for fabric instead. Maybe looking at all your lovely charm packs will help!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet giveaway! I love Moda. Today I am working my day job, and then hoping to get some nine-patches pressed at home tonight. I'm plugging away at a blooming nine-patch quilt.
ReplyDeleteI am currently baking two blueberry pies for my husband's pot luck. He just called me and said it isn't until tomorrow. So today, I will try my very best not to eat said pies. Oh the agony! Maybe I'll just eat one;)
ReplyDeleteI'm at work dreaming of getting at my sewing machine tonight. I'm in the middle of about 6 projects so hope to get at least one completed tonight. It's quite chilly here in southern Ontario Canada - thankfully I have a space heater I can run constantly.
ReplyDeleteThanks for having a giveaway :)

Today???? I'm playing with fabric - it's something I do try to do everyday (doesn't always work, though) LOL

Today I am babysitting for a bit, and then I need to go to the bank. Then I'm going to cross my fingers that my toddler naps today so I can lay on the couch and hope that my head doesn't explode from this cold. Ugh!
ReplyDeleteI hope your day is better than mine!
I had to take my toddler for immunizations this morning (there were lots of tears), then I stopped by a deli, and now I'm waiting for my sister to drop off her rugrats for me to babysit for awhile. Then I'm off to drop off for preschool and pick up from kindergarten, then it will be time to make dinner, and tonight I'm out for a girls night to see a movie and out for coffee.
ReplyDeleteI am trying to get my taxes done! Uggh!
ReplyDeleteToday I am doing my least favorite task.... Laundry! I don't mind the washing, I just hate the folding and putting away.
ReplyDeletemillkara [at] gmail.com
Today, I'm taking my two little boys to the church for an enrichment activity for the women...only, I am not going to participate, just socialize and eat. MMMM (they're sewing these little pocket things with placemats I figured I could do at home anyway).

I'm working on a quilting project and will try and fit some house cleaning and bill paying in between!
ReplyDeleteI am helping my sweet DH pack so he can go javelina hunting with DS and D Son-in-Law. He will be leaving in about an hour and then I will play the rest of the day.

It's Thursday, so I must be working! Love the charm packs. Hope I win!
ReplyDeleteI just finished homeschooling for the day and am about to make a skirt.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad I didn't miss this giveaway! And so thankful that you didn't make me choose right now! LOL!! I can tell you what I'm doing today: I'm NOT working, because my tonsils are sore like hell... I had a bit of fever, and awful headache (which is thankfully gone by now), and nausea, so I decided that it was a good day to stay home, sleep, drink a lot of warm tea... Until I got tired of being in bed and decided to get up a bit and check out what was going on out there in blogland :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great giveaway!

It's Thursday morning here in
ReplyDeleteSan Francisco and I think we're going to the zoo. I hear there is a new baby giraffe!
Every time I come to your blog you tempt me with all of these wonderful fabrics.....
ReplyDeleteI am meeting with several women today and we are sewing. They are not quilters but just teaching them to sew totes and pin cushions etc.
I spent some time today tearing down wallpaper in my bathroom and still have a bunch to go but I'm bored of that already. So after spending a bit of time in blog land I think I'm going to quilt a bit and then get dinner ready.
ReplyDeletewell, today i am working, and blog looking. i am also trying to figure out which forms to fillout to renew my passport, and trying to figure out if i got my first one the month before or after i turned 16.
ReplyDeleteI'm not doing too much today. Still have on pjs...Been doing a little cleaning and sewing....
ReplyDeletewhat a great give away! I am editing pictures of a friends art work so she can put them in her portfolio. Lots and lots of laundry and drooling over Heather Ross's new book I just got in the mail yesterday
ReplyDeleteI just got home from having three facet joint injections (ouch) and now I am going to cut out my first quilt using TWO Moda creations - the jelly roll and layer cake. I can't wait. The fabric is awesome and of course I could use any of the lovely new lines of charm packs.
ReplyDeleteIt's Thursday afternoon now. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI have spent hours ironing, and have more to do. That's what I get for waiting so long. Need to go to the grocery as well so I can get some food cooking to take over to our friends tonight. I wish I could say that today was a craft all I want day, but with a 2 year old and 2 month old I haven't had much of those lately. I wonder why!?!? SOON I tell you...SOON!
I have a sleeping 4 year old, 6 month old and 10 week old so I am getting my internet fix at the moment :-)
ReplyDeleteWell it is about time to make and eat some lunch here. I have a load of laundry ready to go from the washer to the dryer. I cleaned up the kitchen (emptied DW and drain rack, swept the floor,shined the sinks). I need to call VISA and then I am free as a bird until dinner time!! Trying to decide if I will scrap or sew today.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the charm packs -mmmmm, a little bit of EVERY print in a line. Mmmmmmm
Today I am babysitting my friend's 2 year old as she has gone into labour! Very exciting but a lot of work when you consider that I already have a 1 year old and a 3 year old! So I should imagine there will be a lot of settling arguments, cleaning up and reading stories!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great giveaway.
Thursday...today I had to take my daughter to swimming lessons then I worked out then took my daughter to lunch then went to the library then came home in time to put my daughter into her room for quiet time while I showered and picked up a little. Now is the first time I have been able to sit down and get on the computer...but I should be finishing up my mother in laws quilt (it is her christmas gift)...good day!!!!!
ReplyDeleteToday we're all sick, so we're just chillaxin' at home :), I did a blog entry this morning, husband is going to the eye doctor and give plasma, and I get to work (from home) tonight. Yippeee! Hope to get an hour or two of sewing after the kids are asleep...if I'm not first.
ReplyDeleteI had a great morning! I went to a quilt shop that is going out of business and shopped til I dropped. I am always sad to see a shop close but this shop is still going to be online so they are excited about their new adventure. I love the cotton blossoms charm pack and tranquility. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI've got to get both kids out into the cold to run a whole bunch of errands. I really don't want to do it, but heck, we have no more food in the house. So I guess I will. Hopefully, I'll be able to sew tonight after they're in bed!
ReplyDeletei am listening to my daughter try to take a nap and try not to wake her brother up...and we went to the park! yay!
ReplyDeleteWell, I was productive enough when i went to work this morning, but then i counteracted it all with a nap. Now i've been browsing blogland for the past 1.5 hours. Better start thinking about dinner!
ReplyDeleteThank-you so much for having this giveaway!! As I was looking through the post, I started drooling over the itty bitty blooms pattern. I couldn't help but order it right away! This is the first quilt (I know its for a table topper, but I'm thinkin of doing a quilt instead) pattern I've ever bought. I'm so excited! Ok, so today, I worked until just a little bit ago and now I'm eating lunch. Going to make a latte and sit down and start some sewing me thinks!
ReplyDeleteLets see, today I have been working. That means meetings, some more meetings, throw in some work-accounting. Making sure the debits and credits all make sense. Occasionally day dreaming about sewing. Should I enter "that" quilt in the upcoming show? That is what my day has been. Thanks for the give-away!
ReplyDeletetoday I'm attending a meeting for an organization called 'round the mountain for the first time. interesting group of folks dedicated to advancing arts and artisans in Southwest Virginia. Glad I went!
ReplyDeleteToday I ran a couple of errands with my hubby, and now he's about to fix my computer. It's been giving me fits for months, so hopefully he can cure it! :D
ReplyDeleteIt's Thursday here, and I am at work. Today, I spent the morning in the studio, being filmed for an educational video my company is making. I am wearing far more make-up than I usually would, and also, my hair has been pretty much lacquered to my head :-)
ReplyDeleteIt's been a really long Thursday here (at work) and I'm looking forward to going home soon. I will try to get some sewing in tonight. That will make up for the lousy work day!
ReplyDeleteHehe, gotta love the time zone issue on the world wide web! It's Thursday here and I'm savoring some free time while my newborn naps! Thanks for the give away!
ReplyDeleteToday is Thursday, and I am recuperating from the big catering job I do on Wednesday evenings, homeschooling four kids (learning about Henry VIII and Martin Luther today), changing diapers, playing with kittens, perusing wonderful creative blogs, buying fabric online, and smelling meatloaf in the oven. And oh, I took a shower too....what a great day!
ReplyDeleteIt is Thursday in New Jersey and I agree...there are so many stinkin fabric lines and cute, cute, cute fabrics that I don't know where to start either....of course, I started by ordering 2 items from your shop...but wished I could have ordered 10....
ReplyDeleteI would love to win a charm pack, pattern or ANYTHING at all...

I need to go to the post office tonight. I was planning on going today, but my cousin came over for a surprise visit - yay! It was a fun interruption!
ReplyDeleteI just got back from grocery shopping with my kids....surprisingly they were very good today and I was able to find all that I needed! Yay!!! Now the end to the perfect day would be to win some fabric!!!

ReplyDeleteWhat a surprise - I'm sewing! Today it's a slew of presents for my soon to be 9 year old.
ReplyDeletePlus, I got new fabric in the mail from Quilt Taffy! It's a great day.
Today was errands, and then lunch with my sister! It almost time to head to the school for parent teacher conferences.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win cute fabric!
I had a great luncheon at my house today with all of my mommy friends, and now that the kids are napping, I'm reading quilting blogs!
ReplyDeleteWell it is Thursday which means it is almost Friday and that makes me happy. Today in second grade I was on recess duty, we had music, and we shared our heritage dolls. My favorite was a little blonde boy who said, "Here is my doll. He is Mexican. I don't know why he is Mexican. My mom thinks we are Mexican. I don't think I am Mexican. Any questions?" Next I am off to tutor 2 kids with writing, then pick up dinner, and home by 7:30. Hope I win the prize! Thank goodness for Thursday!
ReplyDeleteMy name is Pamela and I spent the day working on my first large quilt, using Tula Pink's Nest fabrics. I designed a border for the first time and am excited. I'd love to win a charm pack and promise will use every bit - they are so much fun to sew with!! Thanks for this opportunity.

Well it's friday morning on my side of the world, raining, kids are at school. I've just had coffee with my best friend, I should be cleaning the house, but instead I am drolling over fabric.
ReplyDeleteWell, today I'm going to work and tonight I'm going to come home and look at my fabric and make something!
ReplyDeleteHey! This is the first Quilt Taffy giveaway I have participated in- hooray! Today? I've been cleaning. All day. It has been a LONG time coming. Then blogging, which consumes most of what used to be my cleaning time. And breaking up a lot of fights. Pretty normal day.
ReplyDeleteThanks again for the poetry collection kit- I am SO excited to get to it!
I finished my birdie sling at 12 something this morning. I couldn't wait to finish it! Then we went to the girls basketball game
ReplyDeleteThursday afternoon here! I hope to find some time to work on my Bento Box quilt tonight... and of course watch my shows.
ReplyDeleteToday I will be spending the day with love. We tried to go to a movie, but the times didn't match up. So we went shopping downtown instead! I also am making some sweet treats for a party tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteI'm getting over the stomach flu and I'm thankful to be on this side of it!Glad you didn't ask what I was doing yesterday.
ReplyDeleteToday is childcare day, so ive spent the morning traipsing fabric shops online, and then ill be finshing my chrismas advent stocking project, yes a few months late (or 10 months early lol!) then starting the cutting for a car quilt for my son. Have a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteYou are too cute! Yoday I finished preparing my fabric for a fabric swap I am hosting tomorrow. My group and I dont have much but we thougth it would be fund to swap a few blocks here and there and an excuse to get together and chit chat with our spouses or kids :)

It's kind of close to the end of the day here, but I did accomplish much today... 6 loads of laundry, a batch of bread and several dozen cookies, sewed up a pair of pj's for my girl, not to mention cooking 3 meals and cleaning up, a few errands, phew, no wonder I'm so tired. I'm so looking forward to my first ever quilt retreat starting tomorrow evening.... pure bliss.
ReplyDeleteToday I worked on a quilt my daughter started 15 months ago right after her first baby was born and she was going through severe post-partum depression and I thought quilting would help her. After she got to feeling better she completely forgot about her quilt so I am finishing it for her as a surprise.
ReplyDeleteToday I'm still making oven mits - still love them, Shelto! Dinner was Betsy's chowder - thanks again, Bets!

Wow! Charm packs are pretty popular - evidently. I love some of the new Moda lines. I like to visit United Notions just to see what's coming soon and drool. :) Today I took one of my kiddos to the dentist, typed up some stuff for cub scouts, ran to Target and took way too many pictures of really silly things. After reading what everyone else has been doing, I am feeling like a major slacker - Tomorrow I am baking bread!
ReplyDeleteJust trying to avoid bill paying tonight! I can't understand why we go to work every day just to give our money away! Go figure! Love charm packs!
ReplyDeleteI've been quilting of course! I just wish I were quilting something great for myself. I did finish some crazy curtains for a dear friend in England. They're quiltish. I also went to my violin lessons and was chatting with my dear 17 yr old son! Have a great one!
ReplyDeleteIt is friday afternoon here, and hubby's last day of his holidays. My 6 year old son has a party to attend (we are all going) and I am trying to get my new (old - very old) cupboard sorted with my sewing stuff. I think that is more than enough excitement for a Friday lol
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway! Well today I went with my husband to the deer lease to help him pack things away. Now it's my time. I'm in the sewing room and will probably work on my tea swap gift.

Thursday indeed! Today was spent with the septic tank fellow figuring why the alarm we didn't know we had went off two nights ago. We now have a clean and functioning septic system and I'm ready to hunt down the last owner of the house and shoot them for the crazy things done to this house!!!! Now I'm taking a break from packing for a retreat. And I'm drooling over the pretty, pretty fabrics and what could be done with them. Thanks for the treat.
ReplyDeleteWell, let's see -- I did two loads of laundry and worked in my new sewing room trying to get things organized. I've never had a space of my own (insert happy dance)and it's sew awesome. :)
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, I did battle with some Space Bags or whatever they're called -- one of the Billy Mays commercial items. I won. :)
