Little Projects

The tree is down and most of the decorations have been put away.  But, I have not felt like starting a big project, sew have been working on little projects.  A friend asked me to make her a tea cozy and the madness began.  I made a mistake right from the start and ended up making some CUP COZIES.  Then got in a grove and made some Tea Pot Cozies.  And finally some pot holders!

Merry Christmas

It is very quiet around this house.  Both DH and I have that bad bad chest cold that is going around.  I am on the getting better list and he is on the maybe tomorrow I will start feeling better list!!  We are missing his family's big get together this afternoon.  But it is better for us to be home.


Wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas!

Cute, Cute, Cute!

Ten days ago, I was in Spokane with my brother and sister in law to see a "Celtic Women" concert. We arrived really early and had some shopping time!  We stopped at "The Quilting Bee", where I bought SPX fabric "Holiday Stitches" using "PepperLand" by Abbey Lane quilts.






Yesterday after golf, I made this little xmas tree without sewing a stitch.  Check out you tube for instructions.  I will make more!!

I don't remember being around anyone with a cough in the last two weeks, but some bugs got into my system and I have a chest cold with horrible coughing!  I don't know how much energy I will have today but will try to hang in there and get some quilting done!

Small Finishes!

Good morning, it's raining here, sew no golf!  I finished a couple of small quilts.  The first is made for a family member.  It measures 28 x 32 and is made from "Hearty Good Wishes"



The second quilt is from "A Quilting Life" small projects.  It measures ~21 x 21" and can be used as a doll blanket.


I am going to a Christmas party and gift exchange tonight and am making little cheesecake bites, YUM, YUM!

Until later...

PS  I need either a better camera or a professional photographer!  LOL!

Mini Quilt

Played golf this morning without a heater--got it lite and ran out of gas!!  After stopping at the store, I made some red beans and rice for super and then started dinking around at my sewing machine and made a mini quilt.  My strips were one inch wide and two inches long.



I am making progress with my "Trip Around The World" quilt and have made some little xmas goodies, but haven't taken any pics.  Maybe later.
