Wishing everyone one a happy and safe New Year.


Well, Christmas is finally over. What a busy time. The "kids" (all adults) are getting queen size quilts for their beds this year. Ryan (the youngest at 30) and Najla received their quilt at Christmas. They seemed to be very happy with it. Here's a picture. The fabric is Urban Couture and the pattern is Kathy's "Cute and Comfy" book from Lavender Lime. The quilting pattern is a new one called Aloha. The fabric, colors and pattern just seemed to fit Ryan and Najla's home.


On New Year's the other "kids" will get their quilts. Hope they like them. I'll post the pictures later.

Happy New Year

Great G-daddy's Photo Green Bag


My 87 yr old father recently became a Great grandfather when my nephew Tony and his wife Jenn had a bouncing baby boy (Mason McKinley). Since my father is currently in a rehab center recuperating I thought it would be nice for him to have a easy way to carry things about.

This is the tote bag I made for him out of a grocery green bag. You can get this now at all the grocery stores and Walmart for a $1. I covered the bag with fabric and photos of my dad with his family and even his kitty Sandy.


Happy Holidays to all!!

Catie's New Dress


This is granddaughter Catie in the "Lucy" dress/jumper and matching hat made for her a couple of months ago. Isn't she cute?

New Handbag


I thought I would share a picture of the new handbag I made. It is a new pattern at LL from Turkey Tracks called "Tote All". It has a pocket on the front and back and was fun and easy to make. I just love those batiks!

Happy Holidays to All


I can't believe that it is almost Christmas.


This is a busy time of year for longarm quilters. We are all busy with those last minute Christmas quilts for those special people in our lives. You can't give a better gift than some thing that you made especially for that person that has meant so much to you. I know I love getting and giving those types of gifts.


Even Bentley is geting ready for the Holiday Season.
