Today is Mom's Birthday





This is one of my favorite of our family hand crafted ornaments.  Eric made it the first year we started the ornament exchange.  It is a copy of a painting Mom did of the Little Drummer Boy.  Eric put the copies into pretty little frames.  If I don't display anything else at Christmas, this ornament always comes out and gets displayed.

Bahama Santa

I decided to display my Santa Ornament - hand crafted by Leslie - with my Bahama Breezes quilt.  That way, on the really cold days I can dream of the warm breezes down south, and also my Santa will be warmer.

Santa's Sleigh Ride


I saw this Anita Goodesign creation last summer when Sharon, Krisha and I did a shop hop in West Virginia. I wanted to do it and found after I got home. It took weeks to do because each individual square averaged about 25,000 sitches and 25 to 30 color changes. But I enjoyed watching it come together.

My favorite quilt so far


I just finished this quilt, called "Snowglobe Babies"  I had sew much fun making it!  And, here is the label I put on the back.  This time, I machine stitched it to my backing before quilting the quilt!   Beats putting it on by hand!

Christmas Projects

These were SEW easy to do, and they are beautiful.....okay, the pictures aren't all that great because I was using my webcam, but I hope you get the idea.  The table runner is so long, I couldn't get it all in one picture.
