Good evening. Today I got to have the pleasure of getting another project off my stack. Both of our little ones got a Christmas quilt with binding on the edges, much the the unwillingness of my bobbin. *smile*
Now I am hoping to get the little bit of laundy folded and fishished up and I also hope to get another thing off my pile of projects to get to. I have a quilt that my great great cousin did most of by hand and then I took to it with my machine, it puckers REALLY bad and it is done at a diagonal. I don't see enough blocks to finish the pattern she started long ago so will now proceed to where the pattern could end and as I am used to straight edges I will "square" it off. It will actually be a rectangel. *smile* Then I will add some boarders to it to make it complete, but the step right now is to trim it up. Then I will get to the deciding of what kind of boarder to put on it. Probably a plain one of some kind as there are several different types of fabric in it already. *smile* It is a beautiful quilt and I want it to look really nice when it is done. *smile* This evening we took a drive to see all the different ways people decorate their homes for the most important day of the year...Christmas! *smile* It was a lot of fun to ride around in our warm van, listening to A Very Veggie Christmas (and singing along of corse*smile*), and enjoying the lights as a family! *smile*
I hope you all are enjoying this beautiful season. Hoping for snow soon. *smile* Winter blessings to you all. *smile* Remember to pray always.-Me-(Mommy of two little blessings)
Wow!

I love your quilt, the colors are fabulous together. Great job. Im very new to using my sewing machine. I made a few placemats this year for Christmas and am learning but far from the beauty you created - so cute. Great job!
I love my husband and am deeply loved by him. Of this I am certain.
