Things settling down?

Mamas.....how is everyone? Hope things have settled down for everyone after the holidays. The decorations are so nice but I must admit, I love when everything is put away and the house looks back to normal - and tidier. Doesn't stay that way for long but I enjoy it for a bit. There have been some neat pictures on lots of blogs. I didn't want to post this picture before George opened it on Christmas - but here is the quilt Lois made for him. Isn't it awesome!? I'm sure he treasures it. Nice work, Lois.



Hope y'all are keeping warm. I'm sorry I can't host this week. Here's today's advice from 'Butter My Butt and Call Me a Biscuit' - Don't beat a hornet's nest with a short stick. Words to live by......hey - I'm thinking of dumping my website and just having a flickr page - I put a link under Non-sewing Sites of Interest - if you get a a chance, check it out and let me know what you think. Thanks.....piece.

Lois, I love the quilt, you did a great job. I'm sure George just loved it. Way to go girl. Jean, I hope you are feeling better. Let me know if you want me to take your machine down to Hayes. I can't get into the flickr at work, but I'll check it out at home.

Hi ladies. Jean, I like your flicker site. I looked at it briefly. Our new computer has been a little sketchy-----maybe it's us. Hopefully, it's working right now.
George does like the memory quilt. We have it hanging.
Take care, everyone.
