Oh, the holidays, I love them so.

 Last week I made this Elenore Burns table runner.  My intentions were to make one for me and one for my Mother-In-Law.  The second one didn't get made and it turns out that she wants the leaf version anyhow.  Perhaps she'll get one for Christmas.

 I made this bag a few weeks ago and forgot to take a picture.  I don't like it and the button is all wrong.

 I only got to 3 Civil War blocks this week.  That's better than none.

 This is the beginning of an Eeyore quilt that my Niece-In-Law needs, stat.  There will be a thick border on top with the little girl's name appliqued & 2 thinner borders down the sides with thick rick-rack.  I'm liking it so far.  I hope to get it done by next weekend.

Last but not least, I started this super cute pin cushion last Saturday at my TAS meeting.  I probably should have taken a closer picture so that you can see better detail.  And for those who were wondering, the top was finished last weekend but I sewed it together this weekend:)


Now to get caught up on my Girl Scout junk!  Hope you all had an amazing Thanksgiving!  Mine was pretty great!

This hansome dude is my oldest son Hunter. He's modeling his sister Bethany's new dance bag. We saw a baby quilt in a magazine with this super cute owl on it & decided to make a hybrid of that pattern and the bag pattern I just got. Hunter drew the owl for me because the original was really big. Such a good boy :P The fabrics were found on my recent trip to Paducah. It doesn't show very well, but, my friend Pat Boker helped locate the stripe on the owl's belly at Eleanor Burn's shop. Now I have lots of leftovers to do something else later.

I've been planning this State Flowers quilt for so long, I don't remember when I started thinking about it. I've had several customers come in with their finished blocks trying to match fabric to them. So, I decided to match my blocks to the fabric before I even got started.

Originally, I wanted the blocks to be on a black background so that the thread color really pops off of it. Then I started thinking about how much work it was going to be to trace all those flowers on to black fabric. So, I found the yellow gingham instead :) I saw a really cute cross-stitch sample at Mom & Me Forever that used a lavender gingham background and LOVED the look. We'll see if it turns out, or not.

Since I apparently agreed to go camping with the family:( I thought I should get these prepped to take along if I need to.

We've also got a trip to Minnesota coming up at some point.

Last but not least, my lastest pin cushion. Raspberry Ripple Ice Cream, anyone?
