I'm dreaming of a white Christmas.........
....The temp. is currently 73* and the skies are bright and blue.
Oh well.
I guess I can dream....
These pictures were taken this past February 30 miles north of here. It was the first time my girls had seen snow. It was the first snow in 13 years, I think.
Anyway, we packed up the car,
drove north
and played in the snow....
in inappropriate clothing!
Snow suit what's a snow suit!
This is Alabama!
Happy Quilting

The Christmas Quilt Along is November 13th. I can't wait. That is in 1 week. Hopefully I can finish all of my Christmas sewing so I can deck the halls early. I am so ready for Christmas. It has been a rough year!
I received the other 2 fat quarters for the HoHoHo Swap. Thank you Tisha and Jennifer. They are lovely and I can't wait to chose one for an ornament. I have found 2 designs I like. I hate to make a decision....Tune in later to see what I make....Same bat time Same bat channel. Sorry I was inspired by Upstatelisa's post on Mork and Mindy.
I am listening to my Christmas CD collection at the moment. That adorable Josh Groban is singing Ava Maria, one of my favorite songs of all time. I have 19 CDs...these are just Christmas. I think I am missing a few. They may still be in the car! I'm going through them to see if their are any I don't like now...Yea right! Of course I need a new CD. I buy 1 new Christmas CD year (or 2 or 3...). Last year I bought Moya Brennan's An Irish Christmas. I don't remember much about it, except it is very different from traditional Christmas music. I also bought Celtic Woman's A Celtic Family Christmas with the High Kings. I love this one, especially the songs by the High Kings. You can probably tell I like Irish music! There's actually not much music I don't like.
So....What is your favorite Christmas song and who sings it...?
I gotta go sew. I bought new bobbin thread I can't wait to try it out.
Happy Quilting!

OK...I know these were not on my sewing list. When I saw them I knew I had to make them for my little girls. They were so much fun. They were fairly easy to make too. The pattern came from the new Quilting Arts Gifts magazine. They are for my 2 girls. The green and purple one is for daughter #1. She's more reserved and quite. The pink one is for daughter #2. She never matches and has her on style (she's only 6). I hope they like them! Now I have to make me one....I think I'll wait til after Christmas to make it!
Happy Quilting
