These Nativity rocks were painted by Lin Wellford...she painted 5 sets of Nativities at Silver Dollar City and they were all sold before she finished painting them! Doesn't she do a GREAT job!?


Here are some photos of painted rocks that I have done and that Lin Wellford has done. I painted this 'cat' rock while sitting at Silver Dollar City with Lin in September. I also painted this eagle and flag while we were there.

Well...I have not posted in a long time so thought I should add a note. We made 2 trips to Natchez in July and August and another trip again the first of November. We visited with both our families and attended a special wedding reception and helped with small projects with my mom and dad.


Usually when we go to Mississippi, we have quilts to take that I have quilted...or pick up more to do. This blue Fan quilt was pieced by my mom for my niece. I love stitching someone else's quilt tops...it's fun to see all the different patterns!













This yellow fan quilt was made from muumuus that our sister-in-law's mother wore when she lived in Hawaii. They saved them for years and asked me to make some quilts for them as a memory. This is the 3rd one I made.


This Dresden Plate pattern is the first muumuu quilt that I made for them. Each 'plate' is a different muumuu.


This pinwheel is the 2nd quilt that I made for them. They chose the pattern and I used the muumuus to make their quilt.
I have the 4th quilt finished but have not made the photo yet. I will post it when I get it made. We will be making another trip to Mississippi to deliver it within the next few weeks.
