RED, WHITE, AND BLUE, I WILL BE TRUE!

FEELING PATRIOTIC?

In this day and age with everything that is going on, stay true to the red, white, and blue.  This great country and the symbol of our flag will persevere.  Think of all the troops fighting for your freedom and honor them every day.  Feeling patriotic, as usual, I created a few items that can be displayed to show your patriotism. 

LOVE OF FAMILY

These are two of my granddaughters.  They are sisters....so much alike......so different......Both a joy to be around!

GRADUATION CUTIE!

Here is the latest granddaughter to graduate from high school!  Beautiful Ashlyn, beautiful inside and out.  She has been  a joy since the day she was born.  She shows so much enthusiasm and positivity every day.  She is very involved in her work and play and enjoys life and making others around her happy.  Congratulations, Ashlyn!

VINTAGE CHAIR FOR THE GARDEN

My friend was going to dispose of this wonderful old 1940's vintage metal chair!  I took it home, washed it, waxed it, and put a cute pillow on it.  I think it looks stupendous in the garden!

MY NEW OLD CHAIR

QUILTS FOR SALE

Here are a few of my most recent quilts I have put on Etsy.....a great little (well, not exactly little anymore!) site that supports handmade goods.  Things are rather slow in the quilt business right now as the temperature is rising!  However, it won't be this temperature forever and before too long we will be longing for something nice and warm.

TRANSPORTATION QUILT FOR BOYS

QUILTS FOR BOYS

It's not too often that I make boys quilts because I love the pastels a lot but I made this quilt for my Etsy site.  I used some vintage looking fabric that I have had for ages.  I think it came out pretty cute.

Birthday Gift

I made this darling apron for my sons girlfriend.  She wanted ruffles, polka dots, and pink.  So here it is.

CUTE LITTLE APRON ON A CUTE GIRL!

PINK ANNIVERSARY GIFTS

Well, the big 41st anniversary is almost here and I have already received my gift from my thoughtful husband!  I am using it right now.....A PINK laptop, with a PINK wireless mouse!  I am still figuring out  some things, like my pictures, etc. but I LOVE IT!  Ok, so I am spoiled, what can I say?
