Sewing Machine Blues.....

My machine has the blues lately. With Christmas coming it hasn't seen much action. I have been too busy with shopping, wrapping, baking, etc.etc.etc. Looking forward to January and getting back at my sewing. I did get this book though recently. It has beautiful pictures and some fun projects. It is one that can sit out on the coffee table even (if I had a coffee table).



Maybe my machine needs an after Christmas gift. That cover is just too cute!

Christmas is coming!




I am finishing up these cute Christmas pillows. I won a bundle of this fabric and decided that I needed some holiday pillows.




and...I am also putting the finishing touches to get this quilt mailed to my BIL and SIL. It was a quilt that I started this summer as a mystery project with my sisters.I love the stitched label that I put on the back. I will definitely do more of these!


                                                               The Mystery is solved...

                                                        I just love this label!



I am finally getting the house in the holiday mood.....The baking has begun...I have the Christmas tunes playing. I love getting out the christmas boxes. So many treasures from the past. I have several framed pictures of my kids when they were small on santa's lap. This is one of my favorites.

Remembering John Lennon

"You may say that I'm a dreamer,
   but I'm not the only one,
   I hope someday you'll join us,
   and the world will live as one."
