Happy Valentine’s Day! I want to start this post by sharing some handmade Valentine’s. The first one is the cute on my mom made for me at the nursing home. Next are the ones that my very crafty middle daughter, Heather, made for my mom and me. The last one with the Hershey’s Kisses are…

WIP Wednesday–Red Month
This month’s color for RSC is red. I spent some time getting out red fabrics. Seems I have a LOT of red. Before I go on about that, let’s look at my to-do list from last week. I pulled out red fabrics, pressed it, and cut some of it for projects. Those projects are actually…
WIP Wednesday–Good Bye January
January is over and so is green for RSC. Looks like February is red. I look forward to seeing what I can make with red. Last week’s list: I decided to go ahead and make an all green jingle bell block. It will be part of great granddaughter Azalea’s birthday gifts this weekend. I wish…
WIP Wednesday–Finishes
This week I have finishes to show! Whew is all I can feel about them. My list last week: So far I am really enjoying taking part in the RSC color challenge again. I am using the color to make items for my booth. I think this will keep me motivated and continually adding to…
WIP Wednesday–Did You Hear Me Scream?
I could have screamed over the below zero weather and bad roads. What my title is referring to is the fact that once again I didn’t have enough strips sewn together to finish the locker hook rug. I even had sewn more together at home over the weekend to add on.’I could have screamed over…
WIP Wednesday–What a Week
What a week, with a couple of snow days. They are calling for another snow storm Friday. It’s nice to just stay inside and pretty much do whatever I feel like doing. After 2 days of not going out at all, it was actually nice (and probably good for me) to get out, clear the…
WIP Wednesday–Christmas Gifts
I only put one thing on my to-do list for this past week and it was to finish the Christmas gifts that I am making. I did get that done. Fabric boxes with candy for family gifts–yes, we have quite a few families in our family. I have a pillow for Jordan, snip it monsters…
WIP Wednesday–December Already
Whew! It’s December already and every day is one day less to get Christmas gifts made. I am moving along on them, but have discovered that I need 2 more fabric bowls. How is everyone else doing on gifts they are making? This is my list from last week: I should have removed my coat…
WIP Wednesday–Happy Thanksgiving!
So that everyone could be there, we had our Thanksgiving dinner this evening. If my count is right, there were 36 of us in attendance. I did take Elizabeth too (her urn and picture). I tried to get as many as I could in my picture. Better take a look at last week’s list– I…
WIP Wednesday–7 lbs. 2 oz.
Yep, Lemmy Lynn Elizabeth was a work in progress for 9 months and she is now here! She was stubborn and didn’t turn. The Dr. got her turned, but then the induction wasn’t doing anything. 12 hours later my daughter had a c-section. Long day but so worth it! As to sewing and crafts, here…
