Merry Christmas and Happy New year!! So I am seeing it has almost been a year since I last posted. This is what happens when life gets crazy. A lot has happened this last year, a lot of milestones, some heart break. This year I plan to change my focus. I have a plan, a plan that may take years to unfold, but the wheel starts moving now.
First things first.....(sound of trumpets)......I have a new Grand baby!!!
Nora was born at the end of June, just 2 days after my birthday. She's a doll. Naturally we HAD to see her so we took a week in July to go visit and spend some time with the kids and the grands. It was awesome, wish they were closer to us!
Oh.....and her quilt.....
I machine bound this front and back. Turned out cute. Her name is embroidered at the top there.
Here are some projects I did manage to finish this last year (you will notice my quilt for my bed is NOT one of them......again.....).
Hailey's quilt got completed. She loves it....
I bound it in black since the front and back do not match, but it is what she wanted. It is cuter in person.
The Grandma Bonnie was due for a quilt. I actually do not have a completed picture of this quilt (shame on me) just the quilt top.
She loved it. Fits the bed in the Extended Care perfectly and adds a homey touch to her room. She got it for Christmas.
I had also bound some misc quilts I had hanging around for at least the last 6 years. Two of them were Christmas wall hangings that I hung on Grandma Bonnie's and Grandma Nola's doors in the Extended Care. Added some nice homey cheer.
I have no good pictures of them so maybe next time.
That is the extent of my quilty accomplishments. Not much, but a lot considering the events of the year.
Hope you all are having a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Be safe out there. We just had a major blizzard blow through, buried in snow.
Always,
Gentrie
P.S. My toddler fried my laptop this fall by dumping pop on it. So another reason it has been a while....sending love.....
