This quilt was pieced by my sister and quilted by me, it hung in our bi-anual quilt show last month. I love the little critters I quilted in. The pattern is called American Pie by Mary K Ryan.

Whoooo Hooo!
I can finally post pictures again, thanks to my new camera and a lot of trial and error.
Here are some pics of my cute cute grandkids at yesterdays Easter egg hunt. They hold the hunt inside the middle school gym, for some reason we tend to have rain or the threat of rain every year. Everyone had a great time and grandson met the Easter  Bunny for the first time. I'm not sure he liked Mr. Bunny to much! lol!

Just call me busy bee

Well it seems I am still pictureless, will be buying new software and maybe more memory this weekend! I miss being able to post new pictures.
Finished quilting a customer quilt yesterday and loaded another small lap quilt, hope to have that one finished tomorrow night. Then I have a large edge to edge to quilt, then I can finish quilting my own.  I have been working on my Farmers wife blocks again and have nine finished. I have also been working on completing a flannel quilt that my mom started, want to get that one done soon as well.

Out of the mouths of babes, Three French Hens

My 6 year old granddaughter has been singing Christmas carols, this past weekend she delighted us with the The twelve days of Christmas. In her version when you get to three french hens she sings three french men and two turtle stones. How can you not be tickled pink with this version! made for lots of chuckles at my house this weekend.

Making Memories

Happy Holidays!
Today was a very productive day, sent two quilts home with their owners, decorated two Christmas trees with the help of my three beautiful grand babies, son-in law and two of my daughters.
Got a good start on the Christmas tree ornaments for my guild meeting, will finish those up tomorrow night.
Took apart an old Christmas quilt I made, and tied a few years ago, hopefully it will be loaded on the frame tomorrow and get a brand new holiday pattern quilted on it.
Now its a time for a nice cup of tea and putting my feet up, so I can look at my lovely tree.
