Princesses

For Christmas this year, seven of our Princess Granddaughters, each received a TuTu made by Grandma Holly. Yes, seven TuTu's!!! Grandpa and 12 year old Uncle also pitched in to help. We hope the girls are enjoying them as much as we had fun picking out the colors of tulle and ribbon to match the personality of each little princess! When they opened up their gifts there was alot of "twirling" going on around the room!!!

These little kiddos are trying out the "FREE QUILT" I recently made!

My "Guitar Boy's" Charter School was having a fund raiser so I dug in to my stash to make a quilt for the silent auction. I needed to make it quick so I cut browns and blues into large blocks. I let my hubby set them into a pleasing design of his choice and I think he did a great job!!!



The backing was from my stash. Then I pieced together batting scraps then quilted it with a design, that could please both male and female, of leaves, cattails and swirls. Bound it with leftover scraps from the blocks......So.......It's a FREE QUILT!

I love FREE QUILTS.....don't you??

Our small HARVEST of PUMPKINS were just picked when I snapped this photo.

Before we get too far away from Halloween I wanted to show what my "guitar boy" was for Halloween. I really don't know WHAT HE WAS......but this is what he looked like. He received quite a bit of attention from the other party goers at our YM/YW Halloween Party. I actually painted his face for him and I got the idea from our grandson that lives in Colorado when he went to a theme park and had HIS face painted for FUN! I just copied and it turned out pretty freaky lookin!!

And this was a fun Halloween Wall Hanging that I quilted. The candy corn border was so perfect for this fun quilt!
