Christmas 2008

This is a before picture. We just put up a small tree because living room is so small. It is decorated with quilted ornaments.

We haven't made a quilt for Rick for a long time. He mentioned he liked this one when he saw it in a quilt book. I picked out the fabric, Jesse pieced it and I quilted it.

I made Keith and Rick blankies years ago out of twin sheets. Linda found a twin sheet the same as Rick's old blankie. I tried to make it exactly the same but they don't make batting the same as they used to. It disintegrated when I washed it so I had to make it a little differently.

The TV that Jesse watches when he quilts lost it's remote ability so we splurged on a new TV for him so the poor baby didn't have to get up and turn the channel.


This is how I sit in my favorite chair. I didn't even think how sexy it would look when I had Jesse take my picture :-) I'm just thankful my body still bends in that position!
