Margie/ARK







Son and wife bought Faith, now 3 1/2, her first tricycle. She was so excited. The one picture is she and her daddy she adores. And I think that is mutual! LOL


















Here are some pictures from the Boerne Retreat at Peggy's house. We had a very good time, a lot of sewing, good food, favorite stories and no sleep. Perfect weekend. We also had the pleasure of having Sheldon part of the group...he was our "token male".....LOL And we all loved him.

Here is Bugg and her backpack that I made for her. She was very pleased with it, also made a covered journal, and pencil keeper and a billfold that all matches. Had enough fabric remaining to make her mom a purse, she was pleased also.

Over Achiever Shows Her Black-White Strip Swap

Okay fellow swappers - here it is - in all it's glory! Realize this is just the top and it's lying on the floor - I didn't bother to smooth it out.














And a close up - see you fabrics? Thanks everyone for swapping. (I do have enough strips left to do another quilt - no idea what pattern yet)

Enjoy the view! JO-IN

I cut and sewed this all up in one day! It measures..40 x 49. Thought it was a good use for some of my orientals. guess I'll have to make another one or two since I have so many. Also good use for a large floral.

JO-IN Greens Quilt and b'day flowers

Just had to show off my neat birthday bouquets - this first one is from DS and his family - they live here in town. How about those perky polka dots? :) The second bouquet is from DS and family in Green Bay, WI The picture is so dark - but had to post it - the vase is a metallic gray and then the silver embossing makes it so classy - remember, I do like to be classy from time to time.
And last but not least - my Bricks and Stepping Stones using the strips from our greens swap. I didn't like it at first but the quilting sure brought it to life! It's folded in half, lengthwise.


This shows about a quarter of it.


Keep stitching, Gals!
