We had a quiet day but really nice one. DM, #2DSon, Mike & I. We had a lotta dishes but they were all smaller than usual. We still have a ton of left-overs. LOL DM didn't wake up till noon so we ate a bit latter'n usual. Not a problem as I still hadn't made the fruit salad. Everything works out now doesn't it? We all took a nap then DM came back & we played Spades. DH & #2DSon beat DM & I.
We are having a second Christmas today. DD's family got back late last night. So we will have them over for Lasagna today. When they lived in FL they made their own tradition of Lasagna for Christmas. While I don't have her recipe for Lasagna & it won't be as good, we bought a Stoffer's Frozen one. She doesn't need to cook today. Not after driving home from the Houston area yesterday. I'm gonna fix some Spiral cut squash w/sauce for me.

Well, this is different. I'm sure we will get used to it.
I stopped getting notifications of this thread. I have been busy. Mostly w/extra company. Just a li'le bit at a time. I did work on a Brother Quilt Club. I am working a Coronado, which is a badged Brother (which were Singer clones.) Anyway it is green & was made in the 50's.
I also went to the Brownwood LQS & did the layout for my Bluebonnet Irish Chain.

Wow, that's going to be super!

Oh! Thanks QuiltnNan. It's 110" X120"! I am making it for my guest King size bed & I want a pillow tuck.

Oh lovely, Bev...And making big quilts is time consuming..that one is like making four 55 x 60 sofa throws! Kudos for all the work.
I'm getting ready to pin a large quilt on the LA...I won't tell you how long it has been a UFO, but want to get this one done!
I finished a tumbler quilt--sofa throw size for DIL's father who is undergoing cancer treatments..he's just had his first session. Plan on getting it in the mail on Monday. I pulled all the fabric except for 2 FQ' from my stash. I worked at making it a masculine quilt and had a tough time doing so. i didn't know I was such a flowery person with my choices in fabric!
In the off moments I've been sewing waste triangles together..going to take a lot of them to do something...anything..with.

Last night had a couple inches of wet snow that clung to the trees...it was so lovely glistening in the light of the single light pole. Have a good one, folks!

Bev that is a pretty quilt! Can't wait to see it all done and on the bed.

I rearranged my craft room and got it all cleaned up yesterday. Then I started working on a t-shirt quilt I was hired to make. I have 5 t-shirts cut/interfaced...there will be 10 t-shirt blocks, 2 paper pieced...finishing 3x4. The shirts are all dance shirts so the paper pieced blocks will be ballet slippers. I'll pick up the sashing fabric on Monday. My goal is to have the top done before we travel the end of January. DS has an archery tournament in PA. Someone else will do the long-arm quilting and then I'll bind it. It is a graduation gift so just want to send off by April which shouldn't be a problem at all.

When did they change the format for the Board???? I have not been getting notifications, and been so busy I did not even notice. The type is so small and I cannot seem to change it like in the old format.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and hope you all have a great New Year!

I read in the Frolic Mystery thread that you have to put your photo in again. Guess I'll have to find out how to do that.

Well I posted my pict from Flicker. It take a bit to get my picts onto flicker but once I have 'em there it is just a matter of copying & pasting a link. There are a few other places that I go to that require me to use Flicker so I already have 'em in there.
