Scrap quilt




I finished my scrap quilt. I got the idea from Quilty Folk. I have enough scraps to make hundreds of these quilts.  I machine quilted it.  I am not real good at that but it will do. I still have 5 quilts ready for quilting so I had better get busy. By the way, that's the new color of my bedroom.

Sewing for Children

I love sewing for my little grand daughters. I finished cowgirl outfits for both girls.  Sofie's is blue and Molly's is pink. I embroidered cats of Sofie's and rocking horses on Molly's.  Years ago I made a similar outfit for Mary that had butterflies on it.

A Family Vacation in Ocean City



We just spent a week in Ocean City, Maryland with six of our children and their families.  We rented a wonderful house that Mary found on the internet. It slept 18 and we had 16 there. The weather was perfect.  The sea was a little rough but lots of fun.  Hubby paid for the house and the kids provided the food.  Boy! Did we eat good. Salmon and chicken kabobs, barbacoa. a clam boil, steaks, and taco salad.  My kids are wionderful cooks. Obviously not inherited from their mother..
