A happy Wednesday to all! We are coming into the home stretch of January and I am always happy to see the end of this month. I don't know if it's the post-holiday letdown or the freezing temps but I always dread January and am very happy to turn that calendar page. We had a nice bee the other night....missed those who weren't here. Consuelo - hope things are well in casa de Henderson. Dolores - any word on Gracie yet? Gracie is having a spa treatment at Hayes - along with Bernadette (my machine)....both getting a well-deserved rest. Did you ever give Kitty her quilt? Lor - how are the renovations coming along? LA - it was great to see you - cute new glasses! Cathy and Pam were enjoying their last evening before resuming school and work. Hope it wasn't too painful. The prototype sock monkey made his debut - he's even cuter in person!!Mare has also started back to school - and already has an A in Abnormal Psychology....guess who she's bringing for show & tell!? Lois got a beautiful basket kit from Connecting Threads - have you started it yet? I broke out Eleanor (the Elna) in Bernadette's absence and made 8 pillow cases on Sunday - we dropped them at Steve's on Monday afternoon for ConKerr cancer - I met Lizzie of Lizzie B - and she signed my book! It was a very exciting moment for me - Erin and Kelly were trying very hard not to laugh at my complete dorkiness. What are parents for if not to embarrass their offspring. Here are a few show & tell pictures:
Cathy's top from Brigantine - finished with a great red flannel back - it lives in the family room and gets lots of use.

Lois made this adorable classic Pooh baby blanket. And she has three babies coming along in the spring - she'll be cranking out some quilts!

And this is Pam's Bunny Hill Block of the month from last year. It is really terrific! Each block is so cute - and has something interesting for you to find. And, she has already made the first snowman block or this year! You are Bunny Hill's woman of the year!

Pam also had her Flower Pots top with her - it is just phenomenal! She has some pictures on Flickr - but it's hard to capture it properly in a picture - it is truly spectacular - and thanks so much for sharing it with us. I think that about wraps it up. Lots of laughs, ladies....as always, thank you. Enjoy the rest of your week.......the days are getting slightly longer - that's a hopeful sign. Piece.....
For those who haven't heard - Bill and Joanna are expecting a BOY!!!! Congrats to everyone! Does this make us great aunts? I think we're pretty great!!!!!
