The Quilts

OK I got the word that everyone finally got their Christmas boxes. So I can unveil pictures of everyone's quilts.

Justine and Gregg------

You've seen this quilt before.

Megan and Mark-------


This one had a soft, fuzzy backing.

Melanie-------



Isabel and MJ---------






This one got done under the wire. As you can see the Christmas tree was already up.

Cara and Luis-------


This is the picture after they opened it. I'll get better pictures soon.

Kaylee and Derek------

You've seen this one before too.
And there they are. It took me most of the year. I made each one because I loved the fabric and the pattern. Dave helped me decided who got what quilt. Enjoy.

Ethan funnies and one finish

Ethan went with the YM to laser tag the other night. He was telling me how awesome it was and I asked him if he got shot. He said in a deadpan voice, "No mom I didn't get shot." And I said really excitedly, "Way to go, give me a high five!" And he said, "Mom stop being sarcastic to my sarcasm!"


This is a fireplace cover that has been in the works for a while. It is made up of flying geese which I've wanted to learn how to make for a long time. My friend Vivian had one on her fireplace and I liked the idea. So this is what I came up with.
