I'm Back!

Hi Everyone!

Well, I'm finally getting back in the loop - FIL is recovering nicely from his open heart/valve surgery and my Mom is settling into assisted living. October and November disappeared quickly but I'm just thankful we are close to family.

Now here is a quick peak at what I've been working on:



This pattern is available from Kalico Kreations I'm almost done with the hand applique then I can quilt it and get it up for the winter! We've had a few days of snow flurries but no accumulation - sigh, I do love the snow :)

Below is a snowman I made many years ago:


A friend asked if she could make it in a miniature version, so we gave it a try. I had my oldest sis pick out the fabric she wanted for the hatband and scarf - a real prim plaid:



He is a bit small but next to the big one they make a cute pair. Now I just need to do a "mom."

That is about all that is in the works here - not much, but things are moving along. I'm still working on the wool wall hanging and Santa cross stitch I pictured in a previous post - I'll keep you posted as things progress!

Happy Stitching!
