I finished all the scarves for the volunteers that cover my lunch.
I got to work on a piece from "Across the Pond and Around the Bend" This is Jan's piece that started with the stork and boat. It went to Elizabeth who added the reeds and Otter and then made it's way to me. These two ladies set the bar high- let me tell you. Major intimidation! Jan and Elizabeth are amazing! I dug out every batik blue scrap I had and made the strippy ocean with the fisheys and reed. Jan's hubby is going to love this quilt. It is now on it's way to Brittany in Oregon and that girl has some mad talent.
Quilts are creative.
Quilts are personal.
Quilts are made with love.
Quilts can be a group effort
Quilts can teach you new things
Quilts are seasonal
Quilts are healing.
Soulmate and I had a lunch date today. We both have this week off and have enjoyed relaxing together. Today we tried a new restaurant called Savory Fare. Yummy.
We packed up the family in the van and took a drive to Taos.
We stopped for lunch,walked around the small plaza and then we
drove back. The best part was seeing the bald eagles near the Rio Grande gorge. Next places to explore is Ruidoso and Pagosa Springs
Photo taken by Chase Dekker in the Grand Tetons. How amazing is our nephew?! So proud of this man. Won picture of the week.
We decided this Christmas we were going to have a modest Christmas. We paid cash for all our gifts and put nothing on credit.
Jack thought this was an excellent idea. We had many belly laughs, starting with Soulmate handing Riley a box of plastic spoons wrapped up as a gift. The look on her face was priceless.
Both girls were on their little machines from last year with a newly purchased game. They are wearing some of their new clothes. Coats and boots and a few outfits for school.
And as I write this they are still playing.
May your days be merry and bright! Merry Christmas!
