Last post of 2010





Wow, time has sure flown by! Hard to believe its New Years Eve. The last night of 2010. Praying the new year brings blessings to all!

We had a wonderful family Christmas at my house this year. My house was literally bursting with 35 people. I was very busy in the kitchen cooking for all those family members. And I even managed to make several door prizes for the evening including this Christmas wall hanging, which my oldest daughter from Chester, NE. won! And a Snowman Table Runner for a ladies gift exchange, which my oldest sister Bonnie got!

This last week, I tried to get caught up on all the quilty things that needed to be finished before the new year. Happy Blocks due girls in Stashbuilder's group, and Dec. blocks for the three block swap groups I am in. Getting fabrics ready for another string block swap, and blocks made for a Bullseye block swap as well.

I am also awaiting January 10th. to get here. That's when I get to see Quiltville's own Bonnie Hunter in person at the Lincoln Quilters Guild. It is going to be so exciting!!

Everyone have a safe and blessed New Year!!

Mittens I made for Secret Sam 2010 Swap in the group Stashbuilders, I put a favorite color of fat quarter in each mitten for the recipient! Also sent a plaque,a mini Chicken Soup For The Soul For Women book, and some chocolate snowmen!
