Here is the quilt I made for my son's girlfriend for Christmas, also the craft project the female members of my family made at Thanksgiving. I embellished the quilt with buttons and beads.

Thank you all for your compliments. I had the quilt on my design wall for about 6 months, when I finished it, my room seemed so colorless. My grandsons liked to go through my scraps and match the scraps to the flip-flops. Naturally, I got right to work on a quilt to get color again. Although my sister tried to convince me to crochet the hats, I just didn't have the time, I got them at Michaels. Everyone had a great time. I think the women look forward to the craft project more than the meal! Thank you again.
