Valentines Party! {show and tell}

Look at all these great Valentines inspired projects you’ve been working on!!

Barbara sent this to us! Love it!
I think this Northcote Range fabric, by Cabbages and Roses is very romantic.

 

 

This quilt and accessories are AWESOME!   In Jean’s email she said that she was inspired from the heart block video, and put this together!!

I absolutley love it!

I’m so glad you all shared!!

Do you have any specific Valentines day traditions?  Or things that make it memorable for you?  Growing up, my Dad always gave us each a little heart with chocolates, and we felt so special.  (he still gives us our own boxes of chocolates.  Such a sweet guy!)

As a Mom, i had to come up with something to do, that included everyone and would be the least painful. (as far as putting it together, and making everyone happy) LOL.

 So, I came up with one dinner I could make that ALL my kids would eat (without complaining.)

With 5 kids, that is a tough bill!  That is when I started the traditional Valentines dinner of French Toast.  (I make a few, stuffed french toasts, mmm) and the rest plain.  You see, I wanted to have a nice dinner and be able to express love to each other, with no whining!

The first time we started this, I think we only had three kids.  I had each one of them go around the table and tell one thing about each member of the family that they loved.  It is truly the sweetest thing.  They were all crying by the time it was over, because they realized how much they loved each other.  Such sweet moments, I hope I never forget.  I look forward to it every year, and it’s kind of fun to have our own little tradition.

If you have a chance to comment, I’d love to hear what you do with your family.

If you haven’t today, tell someone you love them.  There is never a bad time to say those words.

Come back tomorrow, I have one more absolutely adorable wall hanging to share.

Valentines Day giveaway and a little about what’s going on with us!

With Valentines just around the corner, I thought we should giveaway some beautiful Valentine’s fabric!  As some of you know, we are giving a layer cake away on Facebook and I thought, heck, why don’t we offer something even better right here on the blog!  SO … I am going to giveaway a layer cake AND a jelly roll from the same cute Happy Hearts line by Adornit!

 

So, just like on Facebook, to enter all you have to do is leave a comment and tell us about your most special or worst Valentines Day.  I’m sure enjoying reading all the Facebook comments and can relate to so many – I can’t wait to see what you guys have to say!

Anyway, things here at MSQC are crazier than ever.  LIFE.  Whew, it can sure be exhausting!  I just want to tell you all how incredibly grateful we are for you and your continued support.  You might have noticed that our site’s been having issues.  Although most are not affected by these issues, some have had a really tough time browsing our site and even checking out.  Since we are a family business, working hard to grow and offer you more and more, we don’t exactly have extensive IT Department.  In fact, our IT department consists of little brother Al (he’s still little to me, even though he’s 6.7″).  Really, he is a one man show on the tech side of our business.  He has had many sleepless nights, and we love him for that.  After we switched servers to make things better, we had some lost code issues, the fix for which has been like finding a needle in a hay stack – fun stuff (I hope you sense my extreme sarcasm)!  We hope that things will be running flawlessly soon and that you will all have a wonderful experience browsing our site.  Despite the problems, for the most part, things are much better, faster and we can handle more traffic.  Please rest assured that we are working diligently to get all the ‘bugs’ worked out.  Our intentions are only to have a better site that will offer you all more.
