Getting ready to sign out for 2011...
WELL... What a past few weeks... I knew I had to get my Christmas gifts purchased/done, wrapped and sent out before my daughter and her family arrived to spend the holidays with us. I didn't want to waste precious time dealing with all that while they were here. They were here for 2 weeks, so we a lot of activity going on, which we really aren't used to : ) We had a great time and was sad to them leave this morning...
This photo was taken last night, while I still had the tree up. I did get the decorations taken down as my youngest grandson decided to get started by taking the ornaments from the tree.
On a quilting note... I can show the gift I made for my brother. I made him a banner that he can hang on his back porch along his pool.
These flags spell our last name F-R-A-I-L-I-N-G. I thought it would be a one of a kind gift that I could make for him. Okay... I just noticed that the first 2 flags are switched, but you get the idea. The hardest part of this whole process was adding the grommets. I had to recruit my husband to help me with that task. I got the holes clipped and he finished the rest. Thanks Brian!
There was one gift I did not get finished, so that will become a birthday present in this upcoming year : ) I have ideas forming in my mind for new quilt projects for this upcoming year... We'll have to see what the year brings.
Happy New Year and Happy Quilting...
