A Big Finish!

This log cabin quilt I made with ombre fabrics from Jennifer Sampou is finished!  Cheryl Bradford quilted it for me and did a beautiful job!  I LOVE it!!  Now it's ready to be gifted at Christmas 🎅🏼🎄, which will be here before we know it...



We have one of these fourth monkeys at our house 😉

Leaf 41!

Today's leaf is above 😊

Below is one that I experimented with, because I've added several more leaves to my tree so I'm going to have to do some extra.  I saw the circle (bottom picture) and decided to try to make a leaf with that design.  I like it!

The Toned Down class at Craft Addict is coming along.  One of the gals in the class, Rose shared these hand embroidered sachets that she made. Wow!! 😳. These are absolutely beautiful.  Her embroidery skills are top-notch.


Everyone is doing such a terrific job ❤️

Need Fabric!!

At first I thought, "how do they know I need pain medication??", then I saw the number ... and read the rest... and finally got it 😂


Shingles delivered.  Caution:  noise ahead!

Big Woods

My friend Nancy finished her Big Woods quilt (pattern by Sarah Fielke)!  It turned out so beautiful and I love the backing too (Big Backs by Tula Pink).  Eddy Davis quilted the quilt 😊

Needle Keepers

Today at Needle Keepers Theresa showed us how to make these crocheted Christmas ornaments!  Mine is above and I took a picture of the "best side" 😂. My first attempt and I love it!  I'm going to hang it on our tree. 😊

Becky made the all white one (the white yarn has a sparkly silver in it).  I just think this one is so elegant and beautiful.

What a fun craft!  I haven't crocheted in forever!


Look at poor granddog, having a little bit of FOMO 😂. She's adorable 🥰

Christmas Pillow

I worked on this Christmas pillow a lot this weekend!

Some of my stitches were good and others not so good.  I ripped a few out and started over and some I just left.  That's the way it is I guess!

Notice these two snowflakes above and below - the thread is the same but it looks more white on the blue background and a little beige on the green ...



I do love the Trellis stitch



Most stitches at least pass the 10 foot test 😂




I somehow "lost" the mitten when I stitched it but I'm not sure it's worth doing over or not?
