Almost Christmas

Well I decided that I am going to try and post something every couple of days. It is the 8th of December and still selling a little each day on both etsy and eBay....

A couple of weeks ago I drafted a pattern for a quilted christmas stocking out of the old chenille...Big job big accomplishment.......
Well I thought these would fly out of my Etsy shop like gang busters but guess no one wanted to make any this year.....maybe next year!!!!......
I even made up some scrap lots to sell with a free pattern........enough to make a whole stocking front.........


Good Idea I just think it was maybe a little late.......
Will try again next year.......
I need to do some more samples and models so they know what the end project will look like......
I am in the process of making up a chenille and flannel duck kit will post pics soon.....The whole kit will have embroidery and borders to the quilt kit.......
well toodles for now will be back on later

Well how do you like the new look of my blog...Thank You!!! Amy my lovely daughter-in-law she redid it for me. She says this is me..........I am so in love with it....Well I made up some new lots this week of my vintage chenille and will be posting them all this week on my blog.......This seems to go with my new blog makeover doesn't it....I call it Autumn Harvest. It is so soft and fluffy....

When Zoe came to visit..........

Well this last week my oldest baby (27) came to visit with my new grandbaby (Zoe) and his wife Amy. It was a blast of course I didn't get anything done on etsy or ebay. But who cares it was super to have them here. I haven't seen my baby Zoe for 5 months way to long in a Grandma's mind. I can't help it but she is the cutest thing on earth, in my books.

We went to the Aquarium of the Pacific, boy I thought she would be bored but she just loved it. See the pic of the three of them ohhhhh it was so fun...... She just danced around in front of the aquariums and banged on the glass. We enjoyed her so much it was a blast. Well it has been a long week and Grandma now has to get back to work.....and make some money so maybe she can go see Baby Zoe..... Will post more pics later of the visit.
