When life gives you busy, then turn to the schtuffkies. So what is schtuffkies? (pronounciation: Shh-tuff-kies – definition: stuff, fodder, cuteness, whimsical junk). You know when you are so busy and have no time to take pictures of something new and wonderful? What do you do?
You just simply flip through the endless pages in your picture folder (y'all know what I am talking about....???), pull out the stuff that makes you smile….
…or inspires you to create again…
…and then SHAZAM!!! (and use your best Gomer Pyle Shaaaazam voice..) There you have it, a post! Lalalalala!!!! Singing like a song bird!
Now speaking of creating…..
**sigh**
There you have it…a schtuffkies post. So tell me about your schtuffkies….

Well your post made me smile too.
Love the post! Praying and thinking about you :)
Love the vintage sheet quilt! I have been looking for sheets for more variety in a quilt I want to make.
Hugs,
Donna
To tell you the truth Becky, I have very few schtuffkies in the house. It's a small home and I hate to dust so I have just a few things on shelves in the living room and kitchen and that's it! I always enjoy yours though, kind of like I imagine grandkids. Fun to hang out with for a while but you love that they go home with someone else. lol!
I love that vintage sheet quilt, wouldn't some of those prints look adorable as your ruffled bag?
I don't have any vintage sheets, but lately I have been thinking about starting a collection in order to make a quilt. I love yours!

I love your quilt. I have lots and lots of vintage sheets. I may just have to make me a quilt.
You have darling schtuffkies...I especially love the Native American salt/pepper shakers.
What a beautiful quilt...just beautiful!
I don't have many schtuffkies in my house...too many moves, too many packings....lol

Now that's definitely a new word for me but it fits the bill perfectly! Thank you so much again last night for our talk. You are so uplifting and so amazing. I gotta get to Cali.

The quilt is so lovely and sweet and perfect! I heart it very much!!! :)
Becky I have so many schtuffkies I would be here all day telling you about them. Yours are way too cute.
I love the song birds and I could almost here them sing. You always have the cutest post and I don't care if it's the same pictures or not. Love your post!!! I just made a fish quilt :O( and he loved it.
I guess that is all that matters, since he is 15 yr. old and a professional fisherman. I enjoyed making it and I need to make another...maybe another vintage sheet quilt...hummm, you've got a good idea.
I like yours better:)
He, he, when I can't think of a post, I say 'let's look and see if we have any unused pictures in our files'. Now I have a name for it! Your schtuffkies are inspiring and put a smile on my face. The 'sheet' quilt is wonderful. I would love to see you make more! Enjoy your day! Twyla
OH Becky, I love the quilt very much! you used sheets...a great idea. The colors are so soft and pretty. Did you do the machine quilting or send it out?. I'm working on a baby quilt right now for my niece.
So the sewing is all over my dinning room table.
I hope you can relax today, big hugs, Elizabeth XO
i love your schtuffkies. And the quilt is great. I love vintage linens!
yes elizabeth, i did the machine quilting - aka stippling. not hard, just time consuming. xxoo
This is such a cute post! I love your little treasures and your quilt is so pretty! I do know what you mean about needing to do a fast post...I just look through my 10,000 pictures and try to come up with a theme.
Have fun with your sewing...you are a whiz!
XO,
Jane
It is a wonderful post dear Becky...you have such cute,lovely 'Schtuffkies" to share...this is the first time for me to hear them called as such. I will have to remember that word!
Blessings dear friend.
Thanks for sharing...all your pretty thing sure made me smile! Love the little cuties and the beautiful quilt..love it! :D
Uwh* Under diress, you never know what will strike my fancy. For example, I had some bad news last week. Now I have 15 vintage pie plates that have been coming in the mail (via ebay)and that are sitting next to my desk at work, for fear of bringing them home with me. I think the birdies are much cuter! I will have to remember that the next time I am out of control. New fabric always helps me too!
These are just too cute. I bet they are salt and pepper shakers. Ok, now I am search for shtuffkies!
Jan
This is a great idea for a post. I am trying to de-clutter and am running across a lot of schtuffkies
Yours are really adorable!
And the sheet quilt is sweet, indeed!
Schtuffkies - love it! I have a troll doll collection. (a child of the 60's) That always works for me. Love the quilt!
...I just love the new word you taught me today! s c h t u f f k i e s.....so wonderful!
Mine are all fixing to get packed away and moved to another state. Love that quilt!
Brenda

That quilt looks so pretty with it's soft colors. Just the ones I would use if I were talented like you and could make a quilt. Shannon
Good Morning, Becky,
I love your post today. I have enough schtuffkies that I could do this once a week, for sure.
I love your vintage sheet quilt. I wish we were neighbors. We could work on one together.
Make a thoughtful Thursday. ~Natalie
