Special Delivery

Hand stitched quilted postcard for a very special member of the family.  Hope it brightens her day.  She certainly brightens ours.

Simply Primitive!

Just a little mini quilt with redwork for a special friend's birthday.  She's an avid angel believer.
Wishing her wonderful birthday blessings.

Truly enjoyed working on the hand embroidery.  I especially like the simplicity of the primitive look.  I've already thought of several more projects I plan to do.  My creative juices are running!

Isabella the Great

For my "soon-to-arrive" great grand niece, my newest creation for the family's newest creation.  I've named it Isabella's Pinwheels.

We are all anticipating her "royal"entrance into the world in a few weeks.  I have heard from a very reliable source that she comes from a long line of princesses!

Flower Power

My Valentine brought me a touch of spring to brighten a snowy mid-winter day.  He's the best "Boyfriend" ever.  I am blessed.

Mid-Winter Stroll

Went for a little nature walk today and just had to share the serenity of our nearby brook.  Enjoy the blessing.

Winter Wonderland

As I work on a quilt for a soon to arrive great grand niece, I gaze out my window and am reminded of the beauty and wonder of nature.  We are truly blessed.

 Here is the quilt under construction.

 And, of course, my faithful assistant.

Newest Beginning

It’s been so long since I last posted.  I do enjoy sharing what I've been working on, but life has found ways of pushing me into too many directions at once.  Well, now life has finally  come to the place I've been planning for….my retirement.  I can now focus on my want to do rather than what I have to do.   Time is much less harried and more leisurely.  It does take some adjustment, but I’m sure I’ll become accustomed to it pretty quickly.  I have continued to knit, quilt, and crochet during my absence from the blog and below are a couple of quilt projects.  Soon I will post yarn projects completed as well.  Hope you enjoy these baby quilts.  The first is a little girl quilt for our special new neighbor born end of August.

  The quilt is called Pink Lemonade with Honey.  

 

The second is a little boy quilt for the first baby of a special co-worker.  It’s called Sea Dog.
