HUGS AND KISSES


It's all about love in the Hugs and Kisses Blog Hop.

This hop is brought to you by Madame Samm at Sew We Quilt

Today is my day.

I needed something simple that wouldn't take too long to do as I am getting ready to go to Florida.  If you are here now, then I am now in Florida. I did this post ahead of time so it would be ready to post from Florida.  OK enough about Florida, just because I'm now where it is warm doesn't mean I have to rub it in!

I wanted something different. As I was shopping one day I saw this pretty light pink Tshirt and my idea came to me.  Hearts on a Tshirt!  And I'll have a new shirt to wear in Florida! (sorry). Here's what I did.


I cut out hearts from my fabric, layered it on batting and quilted them. Added a backing, and stitched them to my shirt. Springtime fresh looking and not just a Valentine's Day shirt.



This picture shows the pink better. See, simple and fun.


Previously I had made a Valentine's Day monthly wall hanging.


I'd like to mention that my husband and I got married on Valentine's Day so our anniversary is tomorrow! lol, dare I day it?  We will be celebrating in Florida. A son near Gainsville, a daughter near Clearwater, and we are going to visit St. Augustine. I know I'm going to love it there.

Hope you liked my little projects. Be sure to visit the rest of today's blogs for more great ideas.

  13. Happy Anniversary!! Our 10th is on the 15th! We had set our date for the 14th as well but my mother could not make it on the 14th so we moved it ahead one day... Thenit came an ice storm and she couldn't make it anyway... But we couldn't change it back! ..... Fast forward 2 years later and my ex got remarried on the 14th so it all came out well in the end. lol

    I think he thought we got married on the 14th... sure fooled him. :)

  38. A new shirt to wear on your Valentine's day anniversary is a win-win! Have fun in Florida! I got to dive through St. Augustine after I left a conference in Orlando a couple of years ago (yes, I did Disney World and Universal--GREAT fun!!!). It was my first trip to FL and really enjoyed putting my toes into the Atlantic, having been raised on the Pacific.
