Peach Salsa Twister ~ Mug Rug reveal ~ Blogeversary!!!

Recently at the end of Stashtactular I won a $25 gift card!
Which you can read about here
The pattern for this mini quilt came from the Lil Twister
book that I purchased with my winnings :)
I am calling this mini quilt "Peach Salsa Twister"

Because today is my one year blogging anniversary!
My very first post was titled
Palisade Peach Festival
Jolene and I made Peach Salsa from some of the peaches
we purchased there.
Hence the name of my mini quilt  :)
More on that later.

This is the back side,which I decided to piece.
For the top of the quilt I used 20 5x5 charm squares that were
in my swap box of fabric,and then some from my stash too.

Kimber emailed me this weekend to let me know
that she had received her mug rug and goodies!
So I can finally show you the whole photos.
This is the top/front of the mug Rug.

This is the back side.
(sorry both pic's loaded sideways)

Now The part you are all so patiently waiting for,Right?

Today is August 22,which means that it is my 1 year Anniversary
of blogging!
Wow!  Could it have been a year already?  It sure doesn't seam like
it,but the calendar doesn't lie!
There have been a lot of changes in the past year.
Jolene & Gil have both left the nest (biggest change)

Mug Rug Sneak peak & a Pinecone Ornament too

This is the back side of my Mug Rug that I made for Kimber
(my swap partner)
I sent her these pictures and she gave me the okay to post
them on my blog!

Here is the front side of the Mug Rug.
I hope that she likes it!  Her favorite colors are included,as
are nature and Autumn/Fall  themes.

This is my first finished Pinecone Ornament of the year.
I make and sell these at craft fairs and in my eBay store,and
soon in the etsy store I plan to open!

Fall happens to be my favorite time of year also which is why
I decided to make the first Ornament of the year in these
colors.
The picture does Not do this Ornament Justice!
I will be posting more pictures as the Ornaments are finished :)
