A busy summer

I took my grandkids to see Winnie the Pooh. Kennan's three and Zach's two. We had a lot of fun.
forgot to flip this one. Gideon and jessica went thru the Temple.  Above that a darling one of Colin and Samantha. and above that Pace and the cousins having fun at the reunion in Idaho. 
My mom and dad came for the weekend to be here with Gid and Jess. Always fun to have them come and stay. They even survive the crazy goings on at my house. But we had a great time with Zach's family here too.

Stuff

Pace is heading off to Sweden for the World Boy Scout Jamboree. Can't wait to see the pix from that.
Bag I made for a bag swap I did. I did the large bag to hold cutting mats or quilts you take along to work on and a small bag for whatever. The partner I had was from Australia. She sent me some great bags.

Tanner helped out at the Fire Station Open House a couple of months ago.

A night out

For christmas we got tickets to see the Lion King at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas

catch up time - Cedar City retreat

Sherrie and Randi enjoying the retreat ( I hope)
mom flew down and we had a great time at the retreat.
These are the quilts I  did at the retreat. they were fun classes. The Friendship star, Cactus Wreath, Flying Pinwheel and Lone star. I was so nervous to do the Lone Star but it was easy and fun.
My sister will complain of too many quilt pix but I have to get caught up. I made Pace stand and hold each one so I could get pix. you'll see he dropped one too soon. Here's my Cat in the Hat. This will go to Colin someday.
This was the Tisket a Tasket off the internet

A Halloween Swap I was involved in. I did the block with the BOO on it and got the others from quilters all over.

Got my Believe quilt done except for some red buttons that go on the border. I love it

Took an applique class from Lori Holt of Bee in My Bonnett in St. George, Ut. We did the eat cake block and this is how I decided to put it to use. I love dresden plates.

i'm doing 2 signature quilt for my family reunion. After everyone signs them, one will go in the family auction and I'm keeping the other. I love family heirloom things

saw this in Scrap apple and had to  make it. Loved theirs so I got the layer and extra fabric to make it just like it.

Surprised Pace. He dropped it too soon.

My Thimbleberries BOM. I love how it turned out. Now I just have to get busy and get them quilted. I'm trying to get caught up before I get piecing again. But I see so many things I want to make. Went to the Henderson Quilt Show yesterday with Carolyn, Lea and Dee. Had a great time but bought too much. Now I have more projects again.


Tanner got to go on a cattle drive a couple of months ago. He is the second froim the right.

How did it get to be November

a group of friends did a swap with Lori Holts apron quilt. It turned out so cute. Now I'm deciding whether to scallop the edges or leave them straight.
This is hanging on the wall right now waiting for me to get back to it and get the blocks sewn together. I took the month of October to catch up on projects and get things quilted. This basket quilt was one of the many I did but I still have 7 more to get quilted. I'm working on christmas presents now so I can't show those yet.



I did an online tote bag swap. this is the one I made and I got the most darling one in return.





The boys coming home from the first day of school. I missed the morning shot.





Sundress I made for Olivia. I made some for Georgianna too. The two girls had fun at Georgie's b-day. Olivia helped open the present.
