It's Done!!!


For every birthday my mom makes us something. A quilt, a bag, a table runner. It is really fun and it is a lot of work on her part. I decided to give back to her. I told her to pick out something that she would like me to do for her. Well, this is it. It is a snowman embroidery. It is by far the biggest embroidery project I have EVER done. It is huge. I started on October 20th. It was fun and I even learned a new stitch for it. She said all I had to do with the stitching. Mom, I am done. It is here waiting for you when you get home! Love you and I am happy your birthday is only once a year!

A little late but REALLY worth the wait!


My mom always makes something for her daughters for their birthday. This year was no different. I may have only recieved this a week ago but I have to say that it made my birthday extra special! We found this fun material that is in the middle at Pine Needles at Gardner Village. I loved it instantly. It is bright and fun! I think this is one of my favorite quilts that my mom has made me. Thanks Mom for a great gift! She got lots of compliments from her quilt group about it. One person even thought that another it was another lady's quilt! My mom was very flattered! I love the fact that my mom, who could probably buy anything and spoil us that way, will make us a gift every year! So much talent and love goes into everyone of her projects! Thanks again Mom! I love it!

A Few Crafts I have done



This is an earring holder (or a memo board) that I made for Nicole. I thought she needed a little pink in her life!


This earring holder is for Jacque. She has a really colorful bathroom complete with a stripey shower curtain that I gave her!

This is a J that I should have taken a better picture of. It is for our wall. Love the lime green!
