Christmas Eve always starts out quiet. I have homemade rolls rising and sausage balls baking in the oven. Going to my nieces home for Christmas dinner. It will be noisy and so much fun. I thought while I am waiting on the food to do its thing, I would post some photos of my customers quilts I just finished and she has picked them up. She cried as she stroked each star remembering seeing her late mother in each dress and the memories associated with them. I do wish I could be there when her daughter's open their gifts.

Merry Christmas to us all.

I was really on a cleaning roll (procrastinating putting a quilt on the frame) and I broke my Dyson....boohoo. It died and will not come back on. I went to their website and they said to clean out the filter (amazingly was not dirty) and then to let it cool completely. Hmmm, how long will that take? I guess I could mop while waiting for it to cool. The cat box quit running and it is not the power supply, the guest room toilet is broke (got the stuff to fix it, trying to get up nerve to start), my car is making noises and the heater fan no longer works joining the radio and clock that no longer light up, which has been a problem for a while. On the bright side the house is almost clean and I am going out to dinner tonight with friends. OK going to mop now and clean the bathrooms.

Easy Street, all of the 4 patches are sewn and pressed. I just finished the flying geese (and of course I am one short) but they need pressing. Whoohoo!

Wow, it is December the 1st already. I completed my two commission quilts this week and my client gave me a thumbs up on my choice of backing. A beautiful pale lavender with a white scroll in it. I ordered a bolt, so I hope I have other quilts where this will work.  I somehow have lost the ability to post photos, I will try and figure out what is wrong and post them.
