Monday Morning EPP Count 2014 - Week 1

I got really excited when I saw Jessica over at Lifeunderquilts started a new Monday Morning EPP count.
I joined at her last one last summer and enjoyed it really much. It´s been so motivating to see all this beautiful projects and their progress every week and it really pushed me and finishing my work.

So I was a little sad that there was no EPP project in line at the moment and I couln´t join in.
I´m working on a special qulit at the moment (for one special little human), but it is mostly machine sewn (rectangles or triangles I am not sure yet), so it would not work for an EPP count.

First cutting for the new blanet, I may add one or two other fabriques if something hits the eye...

But I got a little EPP-obsessed last summer, so the thought of joing worked in my head all week, and on sunday I knew what to do. Since my sewing machine broke down a few weeks ago and I am still waiting for my new one I couln´t work on the actual quilt, so this was the time for the leftovers!

I decided on doing some extra stars to applique to the finished quilt, don´t know yet how many or how I will place time, on the front or on the back, but one could not go wrong with some EPP stars, am I right?

Now I am able to join Jessicas MondayMorningStarCount again, and I´m over the moon excited!!!

It´s been a while...

Puh, it has been pretty long since I bloggeed for the last time.

But there has been sooo much going on.

First I finished my bachelor thesis in September, and yes, it went well and so if finished school, whoop whoop!

Then I started my new job, first time teaching, first time primary school teacher, first time first grade. Oh man, do I have to tell you more? It´s been sooo many emotions this first few months, but most of all it´s been great.

But there has been one more thing that got me even more, one more thing that brought more emotions, was even better and really really really overwhelming... I am expecting!
Wow, I have to tell you, this was really a big suprise for all of us, but we are so happy right now! It´s our first one, so we don´t know what to expect, so each day is exciting.

18weeks bump with cat

The due date is in June, so there is still enough time for some fun projects, there is a knitted blanket in progress, some quilting, and lots of other stuff on the way.

Now that this news are out I hope there will be again more blogging over here, so stay tuned....

Someone is enjoying this new blanket already...
