Random Things


Hi friends!

I have been working on these for a couple of weeks.

I think 2 more and I will start quilting each one.


 

Hubby had to fix a drip yesterday.

Now he is sore all over from laying over the bottom of the cabinet for hours. I gave him two pillows but that wood is hard.

Always something that has to be fixed!

Have a good one

Q-Bee's

Hi friends! 

I had missed our meeting the Nov. meeting and we usually don't do Christmas month but then I missed the Jan. meeting to. Nov. because my daughter was in the hospital and Jan. because was sick.

Afraid I was going to miss today but feeling much better today.  Sunday got out in that pollen and was sick by bedtime. Maybe I  have a  allergy to pollen?  Only six was at the meeting , so much sickness but Susan had car problems and Bonnie comes with her.

Beautiful black and white.

 

A five inch square quilt.

A snow man  hanging for a friend.

This will make a beautiful quilt.

Really beautiful work.

Great Log Cabin in show and tell.


What Charlotte is working on.

Charlotte  and Vickie holding up Vickie's quilt.

I loved this one, that's trucks inside each square.

A closer look.

Some great work for our sewers.

Have a great week

Half a Quilt


 Hi friends!

Dreary looking day but at least the storms have moved out.

Got to cut some off the other curtain may make a ruffle on the top.  Still got some sewing to do on this one, got to sew the sides !

Though I had a lot of these ready to quilt but seems I was wrong!

Going to do some more before I start quilting them. Went to Walmart for some cotton battening but they didn't have any!!! 

Bought some fleece but Hate to not use the same thing. May just get me up a order!!!  Jo-Ann's is usually fast!!

Ordered some!

Valentines and other things


Hi friends!

Hubby always gets me such sweet gifts for valentine.

No Chocolate bucause sugar free chocolate is GROSS!!!


 

Hubby says this is Bear claw marks because of the amount of distance  between each claw. I will not go outside after dark!!!! This is at the edge of the woods behind our house, Not Far Enough!!

Hubby is hoping for some nice warm weather so he can clean up this! Those parts of the barn was added 60 0r more years ago and knowing Hubby's dad they were probably half rotten when they used them. He has the barn full of rotten wood. Hubby has filled the hall of the barn with  new lumber some of which he has used on this house. But it seems when we have something done they always needs something we don't have.

Got to sew!

T-Shirt Quilt


 Hi friends!

Tatum's Drama teacher at Gainesville sent me some t-shirts to make a quilt for her brother, who was a referee.

This will probably be my last t-shirt quilt.


To me they are easier to do than a regular quilt but that's because of not having the equipment to handle the other  kind.

Have a great day

Angel!


 Hi friends! 

My granddaughter from Texas is up here visiting so we had a breakfast for her Sat. morning. She and her fiance Cameron are looking at the camera. Anna has her back to us with the yellow cap, her guy, Lindsey was at work , I think.

Alisha is past Angel with her guy Devan.  Mark and David on this side of the table..

Tommy and my daughter in the kitchen, she is doing great. She went back to work last week.

So happy she is doing so good!!!!!
In 2003 I had a stroke but by the time I got out of the hospital all my systems had vanished.

The blood clot effected my left side, hers went across her brain and the Dr. had to get it out. Plus it affected her speech but it went away fast!

Th Lord has realty blessed her.

Hi friends,

I made these, but not really satisfied with them! Thinking about a white panel to go with each one?

Maybe cut them down the middle and add a white strip for each!

Going to think about it for another day!

Layla's Quilt


 Hi friends!

We had Ashley and Michael's baby shower. We had a great time . Layla got just about any thing she needs, lots of diapers and tiny clothes!. They will have to change her little dress constantly just so she can wear them all..It will be a miracle if she wear them all but they can always save some for the next baby even if it's a boy.


I got all the decorations off but today we finally put in back in it's box! Until next year!

I still have a few things in here but 90% of them is put up!

My daughter carried me to the shower, now we can't wait for April for the baby girl to make her entrance to our family.

Tatun Michael 's sister  said she would be coming home more after Layla  gets here.  She lives in New York City!

Tree Up


 Hi friends!

Hubby took the Air conditioner out so I could put that chair that sits in the corner further down and put the tree up. 

I have been fluffing and putting on ornaments   all week!

Still haven't decided what to put on top!  Star? Santa? Angel?

Look and see after while what shape my tree toppers are in.

After Thanksgiving


 Hi friends!

We just got back from voting in a run-off! Want really be through until next week.

My daughter was in the hospital for days, we spent days at the hospital and today she starts therapy. She came home on Tuesday before Thanksgiving . The stroke affected her speech. She is only 56 years old.

I have been so rattled that I forgot my camera for both our Thanksgiving's.  Abby did most of the cooking on Thursday with Kim's help. They insisted I make nothing, that they did it for us! I have some great kids, all 6 of them!

Then for my family Thanksgiving Chris cooked  a Ham and my daughters girls made sides. I made sweet tea and we got together at my daughter's.

Prayers are needed

Visit To The Nursing Home

Hi friends!

Today the Q-Bees visited out local nursing home to carry some wheel-chair quilts for a few ladies and Vets!
They put up the quilts not for veterans to give as Christmas Gifts for people that doesn't have family to get for them.

You are not allowed to put these sweet people on face book so this is a picture of some of our qroup's members.
 

In this shot we were near the lunchroom, waiting for a very nice man to get a list of vets for us so we could go to each veteran and present him with his quilt.

This is Vickies wheel chair quilt that she made and we presented it today.

This is Charlotte's.


This is Susan's in a earlier picture.
