Jeanette--Great job. If your Mom is like my sister she will love the Elvis quilt so much. My sister is such a big Elvis fan--where do find the material??????
Love the trick or treat bags.

Oh, I can really appreciate that Elvis quilt, I saw him the first time he ever appeared on TV.....the Ed Sullivan show. Now does that date me or what??? lol lol

You did a really nice job on that, your Mom is going to be thrilled. Bet she wants to hang it on a wall. Your grands will sure love those bags!

Those are both terrific!!!! Did you get the Elvis fabric recently? My cousin is also a major Elvis fan - she even got his autograph when she was a teenager, and she still has it (and she managed to hold on to it thru' raising 8 kids!!!) LOL
Thanks for sharing with us. :D
