Good news: I have now been blogging for 5 wonderful years.
I have had 359 posts and 66000 views. It seems like an awful lot. I have shared lots of ideas, and it has made me accountable to accomplish things. The very best part is that I have met lots of wonderful people and learned so many things. I have done challenges, exchanges, and some donation quilts. It makes my heart sing.
Christmas plans are coming: I had a big cookie bake with my daughter and a friend on Saturday. 2 kinds of chocolate treats and 4 batches of cookies. Yum yum!
For the guild meeting tonight, I have a Christmas doll quilt : It started with the pad lining made by someone else needing a quilt and pillow to match. I did my easy 4 patch and solid alternating.
Then I added some borders to get it to a 9 by 13 inch piece.
Lastly, I have finished the applique for the grandboys on navy t-shirts.
I used golden threads on the back to assist with the movement. Bad move, the little pieces paper left in the zigzag are a huge pain to get out.
But I really hope they like them. Either it will be a hit or not. I hope it is not too hokey.
And I hope they fit...
Off in the MAIL tomorrow with some Christmas pajamas and assorted little Christmas goodies.
love those Xmas p.j.'s! congrats on your 5 years
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your 5 year blogging anniversary! Your shirts for your grandsons are so cute. I hope they fit, too!
ReplyDeleteThe little quilt is adorable. You should make a big one for yourself...for next year. The shirt are nice. How old are kiddo's, that might be the key on it's being a hit. Kids are funny, just about the time you think you have them figured out they change.
