Merry Christmas

 Hello Everyone,

I want to share a few Christmas projects I have been working on...
I started this Christmas quilt a couple of years ago. I just never
got around to finishing it.  Well a friend came over and saw it hanging in my sewing room and said "OMG - I love this!"  So, that made me get back into finishing it.
Here it is just hanging and fraying around the edges, waiting to be quilted and put together.
Now it's on the longarm and I am quilting it in hollyberries,
 just like the ones on the fabric.
It's all done and it came out beautiful. 
I gave it to my friend 😊 she loves it!
I also made this cute deer wall hanging
Over this past summer I went to a wedding and wanted 
to give the newlyweds something they can remember.
I made them a keepsake memory quilt.
Here are a few pictures...
I also received a couple of nice gifts too!
These are absolutely beautiful!!
I received this Christmas tree
serving tray a few days ago for Christmas.
OMG - It's BEAUTIFUL.  - Thank you George  - I love it 💗 
Also got a hummingbird suncatcher - Hummingbirds symbolize
that the spirit of a loved one is near and it also symbolizes challenging times are over and healing can begin.
These are two great gifts that I received for Christmas and I love them
both very much!!!  THANK YOU!!!💗💗

Happy Holiday!

 

Hello Everyone, Happy Holidays!

 I know I haven’t posted
any projects since April…
I have been busy with work ~
and watching my grandson every now and then.
So it’s a little hard to get quilting done and post them too.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
Here is what I have been working on since I last posted… 
The Dress – Penelope"s Dress!
I used all of my granddaughter's
baby clothes for the tutu skirt -
I love this quilt. It came out beautiful!
This is my precious little
lucky Penny! 
All I need to do is add the 
lace neckline and she is done!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I also did some embroidery
on a few jean jackets
for my grandkids.
This one below was for 
my little guy ~ Gio
He loves monster trucks...
This one below is for Penelope
She likes Mirabel from the movie
Encanto...
And this one below I did for 
Kalianna with butterflies
and her initial "K"...
 Below is a halloween pillow I
made that glows in the dark and
lights up too - Everyone loves them... I now have to make 
a few more of these.  
I will also be making Christmas ones too.
This is the pattern I followed from Kimberbell...
I quilted these with glow in the dark
thread & used the cobwebs quilt pattern.
Here it is all done!

~ I will be positng more soon! ~

Nice Surprise


Hello Everyone,

What a nice surprise I got a few weeks ago...
I came home and there was a package on my doorstep...
It was wrapped so pretty with a beautiful bow.
I opened the card, which was beautiful...
It was from my brother George.  He had made me 
this BEAUTIFUL cutting board.  It's absolutely beautiful!
I love it!  It looks too nice to use- Thank you
George :-)

I also want to share what I've been 
working on in my sewing room. I made a few dresses for my 
granddaughter... these two were for Easter.
This one below I made for our trip to Ireland
this summer - Can't wait!
Here is my little lucky Penny
wearing one of the dresses...
They all came out beautiful.

Happy Spring to my Family & Friends

Happy Spring!

I want to share a few things I have been working on...

My grandson Giovanni loves
 to play eye spy. So, I thought I would make him an eye spy quilt.
When he comes over we can play. 

Here are a few pictures...
I used rocket fabric on the back of the quilt because he loves rockets.
Here is the label below...
It says Gma because he calls me Gma and Gpa
for Grandpa - We love it! :-)
Here I am below quilting it on the longarm
You can see the rocket pattern I used 
for quilting too.
I also made a couple of bears for 
the grandkids Easter basket.
Love the feet on this one above...
After I made these cute little bears.
I decided to make one for me...
Here is the label I will be putting on my bear...
I want to wish you all a very 
Happy Easter!
