A Little Late But Finished

Well, I finally got the table runner to match my new tree skirt finished today...lol. Better late than never, right???  I pieced it a couple of days before Christmas and got to quilt it today....good thing it is little..lol

Quilted with silver metalic thread....pretend it's not upside down..ok...sheesh. Lesson to me, don't do pics after supper...lol!'!!!

And the back....

Now, next year I just need to remember that I made these things ..hahaha!!

Happy New Year to everyone!!

Christmas quilts

I hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas!!!  Here are the quilts I made my family for Christmas. I couldn't post before they received them in case....lol

I made these hockey quilts for the little grandsons...

the oldest grandson, who is 13 got at t shirt quilt made from his t shirts...

that wolf you see isn't part of the quilt...shoot!!  forgot to move it..lol

My oldest son and his wife loved this king size quilt...it is difficult to see since it is all one color.

Close up..bed runner and cushion go with it.

the second son and his wife. Got this one....hand quilted.

Now this is a picture of the quilt as this is the original...not the one I made. I lost the picture somehow...I used the same colors, but a bit brighter.

the youngest son got this one, Double Irish Chain....lost that pic too...but same colors as this sample picture.

Talk to you all again soon....Happy New Year!!!!!

A Wish for Everyone

Wishing all of my blogging friends a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!!

WIP Wednesday

Woohoo!!!     We are getting close to the big day.....lol. I finished wrapping gifts today, a very nice feeling and the tree is decorated!!

This week, I have this finished quilt to share with you...

All hand quilted and bound.  I spent the past few days piecing this one.

Sorry, you can't see the last row there...shadows.  This is just a small quilt kit from Connecting 

Threads.  It was really neat to work on too.

Yesterday I met with the sewing girls for our Christmas gift exchange and a little sewing.  We always have a good time sharing and helping each other with projects. Hoping you all have a productive week.

Getting Ready for the Big Day!!!!

It is a quiet Sunday evening here, sitting beside Merrill...both on computers..lol.  who would have thought...lol.  A week and a half til Christmas and all is good!  The tree is up...not decorated yet, but within the next few days I will do just that.  Merrill is working out of town, this will occupy my time. Still have a few gifts to wrap too.  

I finished hand quilting the Stash Star quilt and have it bound...

I really love this colorful quilt.  Here is a closer look...

I have started another small quilt...piecing will keep my hands busy over the holidays.

tomorrow is sewing day with the girls, which is always interesting!! 

Have a great week everyone...
