Potholders

These are now done and a free pattern is available on my website for you to enjoy.  Insubrite would be a good idea if they are more than ornamental.  They are fun, easy and a quick pick me up for your kitchen.  Make lots for gifts!

Happy Birthday to Me

It is a bit early for my Birthday . . . but look who showed up to celebrate early . . . today.  As you can see, Annie is busy helping with the flowers, sewing, decorating, chocolate and of course lounging on the bed . . . what a sweet treat for my September Birthday . . . I love her . . . Thank you to my loving sister Grace . . . for this beautiful gift . . .

Finished Purse

I am so blessed to have had my sister make this purse for me at the Sister Party. She actually made one for all of the sisters. I just had to stitch on the handles and buttons. My choice of buttons makes it look like a face, perhaps I should change them out . . . :-) It has two roomy pockets which I velcroed shut and also a velcro closer. I stitched the top ends in a bit to help square the purse. Now I just need to cut a bottom for it and I am off to the fabric store for some fun!!

Dear Santa

Sometimes Christmas comes early . . . he sees our wish list and woosh . . . there it is . . . all wrapped up in . . . cardboard. Who would have thought?

Our computer presently is about 8 years old and sadly in need of replacing. It takes approximately one minute to switch screens and change anything. Seriously, you could click on internet explorer and then go take a shower. When you return, surprise, it is finally up and ready to allow you to click on something and then . . . wait . . .

For all you do and all that you are, for all you have given and for loving me . . . Thank you Santa . . . I love you too!

Table Runners

While stitching up a storm, I finished two table runners for Christmas. Pretty easy and quick. I think they will be nice gifts. I only needed one in Burgundy and Navy and now three with earth tones, one is done and hopefully one more today. Cross you fingers. Both patterns are from Anika's Treasures. Well written and fun to do! Thanks Anika.
