Christmas Heart

Zekaryah created this beautiful heart for his girlfriend out of a nice piece of wood. She loved it. I can't wait to see what else he creates and hopefully we can get him some more tools for all these ideas he comes up with to make the job easier.

Graduation and Christmas Quilt

This customers daughter finished up her Master's Degree, her mother turned her college shirts into a Christmas gift.
She purchased a gift certificate from me and I made this quilt for her.
They loved it so much they are thinking of ordering another one for her daughter in law.

Christmas Day 2015

Stockings are my favorite gift. I love them
This is actually out of our WINTER garden, its just amazing. We had even more tomatoes that we already made salsa from.
Meal times, I love having a full house and meals at our table.
I love that teenagers get excited about their stockings, even if this year they are more about necessities
We even gave our house guest her stocking full of goodies, we borrowed it from her to fill it up since she was with us this year
Smiling faces~ always a great thing
Sometimes the practical gifts get these faces..
Paul really needed a new wallet and socks so those were in his stocking
This is my favorite captured moment. Hatchet got a new toy in our daughters stocking and Paul was playing with her, lets just say our computer chairs and dog toys are not companions, over he went~
Jakob needed money for school so he got a Tshirt and two pair of jeans as well as some new shoes
Zekaryah really loves to dress up so some ties, slacks, dress shoes and a vest was on his list
Mekenzei bought Izzy a poster and this sweater for the dog, who seems to be Izzy's friend so much these days.
Mekenzei loves her new sweatshirt and hat
I love my new salt and pepper shakers/containers and Jakob bought me a three piece measuring cup set made from glass with his own money. A much needed gift. I didn't have one.
More meal times
The best part of break is lots of game nights. Since we don't have a couch chairs around my quilting table work great

Friends Christmas Gift to Son

The Last quilt order for December 2015
I made this for a local friend's son. It is twin size.
I quilted this one a little different and I really like it.
I took some logos off some shirts to create a center square

23 Christmas Quilts in 40 days

This quilt was made for a principal at a local elementary school that had to retire for medical reasons. I was honored to be asked to make this quilt from their school shirts.


The Magnolia Historical Society lost two members within a months time of each other so I made two quilts one for each husband as a way to show that we loved and cared for these women very much and for their spouses during their time of sorrow.
I am thankful to the people who signed the quilts to make it even more special, they were presented in public at our Hometown Christmas event then given to the husbands at our monthly meeting.
This is the first time I have made a quilt using photo paper, I think it turned out really nice and it will be a great option for future quilt orders
