A new year and lots of new projects



The last 3 weeks have been a whirlwind of family and friends and celebrations.
(Not to mention a lot of cooking, cleaning and laundry.)
We celebrated an 11th birthday
a 13th birthday
a 41st birthday
Christmas Eve and Christmas Day
a day at a shelter serving lunch and giving out homemade brownies
New Year's Eve and New Year's Day
a big promotion
peace and love and togetherness

I feel blessed to have been able to have so many of our family and friends to our home over the past month. Wonderful memories were created. This new house needed some.

My brother and sister-in-law flew in and stayed for a week.
I was able to get a hold of my baby nephew and love him to death.


This is the quilt that he got from his favorite auntie :) for Christmas.


The softest minkee on the back for his sweet little baby skin.

The tree is down, the decorations are packed, the cookie tins are nearly empty and my
sewing room is brimming with fabric and patterns.
So far I have 8 WIP's and it is only the 4th of January.
My goal is to get all of them done this year.

Having hit the 50% off at my local fabric shop over the weekend, that WIP number is
sure to skyrocket.

Happy New Year to all!!!
