addition to my quilt one:

Okay, I just click on my two pictures that I posted of my quilting and it makes them go bigger. So if you want to look closer at the pics be warned I am pretty scary looking as I am holding up my quilt! I think I could be a vampire with my red eyes!!

My finished Quilt!



The other day I finally finished a quilt I have been working on for awhile. Its called a "Crazy Eight" quilt design. Its actually not that difficult to do, just finding the time to do it. Which is why my quilting takes so long. I am giving this one to my daughter Dana, because she has decorated her daughters room in the colors of the quilt. And she painted these cool two-tone diamonds on one of the walls and it just happens to match the green diamond fabric in the quilt. If I can get to the pictures, I will also show what I am working on right now. Its a Christmas quilt and I've got some done, 10 panels, and 20 more to go before I can put it together. This quilt has been fun to do and I am already picked out some fabric to do another one. I also just finished decorating an apron for the Halloween holiday. I've got to get a picture of that on next. Okay, here goes...

Lauren and Phill - Ike who?

Well, after talking with Lauren today, it sounds like they are going to try to weather this Hurricane named Ike. I hope Ike is just a bit of rain and not much else. If you go to her blog, she tells what their plans are. Its weird not being there to help her and I know her and Phill will be fine, its just been my role in life to protect her and life goes on, kids grow up and find great husbands, and I just need to relax! I know this and I can do it. Heck, its not like I don't have enough to think about with the rest of my kids! Today, Taylor's High school and Jessie's Jr. High were in lockdown for a couple of hours because of a home invasion close by. Geeze, louise, what next?!!
