The Jetsons Paper Piecing Set

Hello everyone, Happy almost Thanksgiving.

WOW, I can't believe it's almost Thanksgiving. Where has this year gone? It's almost time to start putting up Christmas decorations. It's a family tradition to put our Christmas tree up the weekend after Thanksgiving along with the outside lights. OMGoodness that's NeXt WeeKeNd!! I need to start mentally preparing myself. LoL...

Today Erich and I went and got new LED Icicle lights to put outside on the house. Last year we switched out the lights on our Christmas tree to the LED and We LoVeD ThEm. I couldn't believe how much cooler a thousand LED lights was compared to a thousand of the old ones.

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to make many paper piecing sets this month because I've been sick. I developed a virus in my inner ear so I was on a 24 hour roller coaster for a week. NoT FuN! This last week I'm doing a lot better. I just get a little dizzy and off balance when I turn my head or bend over too fast. Thank goodness I don't have to do much of that when I'm scrapbooking. LoL…

A couple of my buyers requested that I make some paper piecings of The Jetsons last month. I was able to get one set finished and half of this one before I got sick. Check it out.


The Jetsons Paper Piecing Set

When a couple of buyers asked me to make some paper piecing set the Jetsons the first thing I thought of was Rosie. She was always my favorite and as a child I always wished I could have her at my house. LoL…

Scobby Doo Paper Piecing Set

Hi Everyone, Happy Halloween

Wow, I can’t believe I haven’t posted anything for a month. Where did the time go!! For one week of it we went on vacation at Disney in Florida and of course we went to Universal for a couple of days. We had to check out the ‘Wizarding World of Harry Potter’. UnBeLiEvAbLe!!! If you’re a Harry Potter fan you’ve got to go if you get the chance.

Before we left I listed a couple sets of paper piecings but I didn’t have a chance to post them for you to see. I was too busy packing and getting ready for our trip. LoL.. While I’m sitting here waiting for the Trick or Treater’s to start coming I thought I’d go ahead and start this update.

I had a couple of my buyers request for me to make and list two Paper Piecing Sets. The first buyer wanted a set with ‘Scooby Doo’. When she asked the first thing I thought of was haunted houses. So here’s a look at how it came out.


Team UmiZoomi Paper Piecing Set

My second buyer wanted me to list a set of ‘Team Umizoomi’ characters and here they are.

Clifford the Big Red Dog Paper Piece Set


Hi there,

Last week I had one of my buyers suggest that I make a Clifford paper piece set. I LoVe it when my buyers give me suggestions. I don’t have to spend a lot of time trying to figure out what I’m going to make. It takes me so long to make up my mind. There’s so many I’d like to do…. Donna thank you so much for the suggestion.

I love how they came out. My only problem was after I finished making them they were a lot bigger than I was expecting. Here's a look at my newest additions.

The Flintstones Paper Piece Sets


Hi again,

It’s been so exciting since I’ve switched over from making scrapbook layouts to just making my paper piecing sets. I was so reluctant at first but it’s been such a blessing. I’m getting so many custom orders now. It’s unbelievable…. What’s so great is I don’t have the issues that I had with making my layouts. Now I’m able to create more. There’s no OCD kicking in… LoL….

I thought I would share with you the last 2 paper piecings sets I listed on eBay. They were really a lot of fun to make. Now here’s a cartoon that I use to watch and it sure was a lot different from The Family Guy. LoL….. I really don’t think they make cartoons like this anymore. How different life was back then.

Family Guy Paper Piece Set Custom Order

Hi Everyone,

I made a Family Guy custom order paper piece set a few weeks ago for one of my buyers so I thought I would make one to list on eBay. I figured because it was so fun to make that it would be a good idea. My daughter came in the night I listed it and was commenting on how beautiful they were. Then she looked at me and sad, “Did you list these on eBay? Have you ever watched this show?” When I told her no she looked at me and smiled saying, “I don't know mom it's pretty much out there." I hope I didn’t make a mistake. LoL… I really need to watch this show and see what she was talking about.
