I'll be hand delivering mine this weekend... oh, so much fun!

I'm Thinking......

Have picked out some silks and some Aurofil thread. Now I am thinking "triangle trees"......

Mama's quiltlet

tiny triangle morsels...
will this be it?
or will I play out a few more ideas?
I'm in a very Christmas-y spirit... Since I will be giving away all the lovely quilts that were sent in for BASICS on Thursday!  The perfect thing to get me in the Holiday mood! ;-)

Yeah!  Feels good to get back to sewing stuff again.  I was beginning to seriously pine for my sewing machine and that messy room.  I did spend a couple of hours in here cleaning up some stuff, but you would never know it.  I don't think anything LOOKS different, it is just a bit cleared and organized.  Notice I said "a bit", that is all - a tiny tiny tiny bit.

See my helper?  See how beautifully her ears fan out?  Why couldn't she do that when she sat with Santa CAAWS for the picture that goes on my Christmas Card?  Why?  Aughhhhh!  #%$*& Bassets!

I can't show you the entire thing I am working on because this is a December Challenge from the Modern Group.  So here are some peeks. 

I am in South Louisiana and I used to think those Christmas cards with all the snow and the trees, and the horse drawn sleighs were all make believe fakes.  Our Christmases are very, very green around here!  (You would think I could match the seams on the flying geese after all these years of quilting, wouldn't cha?  I guess not.)

I am liking the way this is turning out.  I am lusting after it for myself.  Will I have the willpower to mail it off in two weeks.....stay tuned and see. 

PS.  I could make another one but I don't have anymore of that footprint fabric.  And those footprints go so perfectly with the entire thing.  Aughhhhh!

Two More Peeks

Making this for Brenda

really put me in a

holiday mood!

Hoping to mail tomorrow.

:-)

Just to let you know I am still here........

I have the most marvelous idea that I am sketching out for the December Challenge.  I am hoping it will work because this will be a unique and wonderful thing.

No peeks just yet.  Maybe tomorrow........

It was a bleak and dreary day, warm with no sight of cool yet.  A day for sewing. 

glen:  This, unfortunately is not my back yard, we went to False River (a bend in the Mississippi River that got cut off from the river where it went straight) for Santa Photos for the Bassets

Just One Peek

Having fun with this!
