Can't wait to try the candy..gotta be good and wait until after dinner though. Thank you so much. Happy holidays to you and yours and hope your 2011 is a wonderful one!
P.S. Although I got my package, I'd like to stay on the bench to finish the binding on my mom's quilt for Christmas. Terryl,I think you'll like it, it is in orange and green :mrgreen: And Patti, I'll be careful and try to not get dirt on the quilt while eating:lol:

I collect mugs with states on them and now I have one from Colorado. And I was lucky enough to be the recipient of her lovely embroidery work on a table topper and ornament. Oh, and there was delicious Lindt truffles but I'm not mentioning that...
The "tabletopper" is a flour sack dishcloth. I had never done that before and boy was it a learning lesson. I went back to the store where I bought my machine and asked them what to do the next time I did something like this because the weave was so loose, the design wasn't very crisp. Anyway, glad you liked it. I would love to see the finished quilt when you get it done. I really liked that pattern... bought myself one too. :lol:

After reading all that about your 'interesting' wait for your squishies, I feel like I could have been part of that conversation. Except, I got mine last week. That's what told me this was already happening! I have you all beat in the height category. I am working hard reaching the
4 foot 11 inch level on the wall and I am also in my 60's.
I guess we have more in common than we knew pattis47! Enjoy your cocoa.
I just finished a 24 inch octagon tabletopper using the accuquilt dies in all the shapes for the quilt. That sure makes the cutting fast and sooo precise.
Nothing like folding a square into a prarie point and come out exact each time. And, yes to sew triangles without dog ears. Wow, how easy!.

"Points of Interest"Pattern from MIX & MATCH Quilts (With Accuquilt GO!) I changed the fabric to my choice of Christmas fabrics. Was easy cause shapes were easy! Those are Prarie Points (hard to tell in center and peeking out of corners)
