I just wanted to share a new picture that was sent to me of a t-shirt quilt that I made for Greg for his Christmas from his mom and dad. His mom sent me the t-shirts and of course, he knew nothing about it. He is displaying it after opening it Christmas.

I also made his brother a t-shirt quilt and his brother's wife a wedding quilt of their wedding. They can all stay warm this winter!

We delivered 5 quilts to Mississippi this past New Year's weekend and also visited with our families while we were there. My dad had his 90th birthday party when we celebrated Christmas with all of our families, too.
This is a muumuu throw that I made from the scraps of the 4 muumuu quilts that I made. I have enough to make 3 more throws.

This Queen sized quilt on the left is made from quilt blocks that my friend's mother made and had packed away. After her mother passed, she found them and asked me to put them together and quilt them for her son and daughter. I had enough blocks left to make her a throw to remember her mother by.

These are 2 of the quilts we delivered to Mississippi this past weekend.

My mom and dad are surrounded here by my sisters and brother and me with almost all of their grandchildren and great grandchildren in their front yard. The weather cooperated and was nice enough for the kids to climb the trees.

Santa Gourds


Just wanted to share a photo of the gourds that I painted for gifts for our co-workers...and friends. I painted 36 total this month...T.Joe put a wire up in our kitchen so I could hang them while they were drying....I painted them in a production line....a little on each one...took 20 to work...and T.Joe took several to friends...and we still have a few to give before Christmas!
I have been busy making clothes for gifts for the grandkids....It's fun to make 'little' clothes...and decorate them with embroidery and maybe some rhinestones! Got to get back to work...Christmas is almost here! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
