    I'm so glad that you and your sisters get together to make beautiful quilts with each other - I hope you keep up the tradition. I cherish all the times my sister and I were able to do things together, especially now that she's gone. God bless.

    We each try to come up with a project throughout the year...and see if we can find the pattern which is not always easy. We looked for Spicy Spiral for quite awhile!

    Amd then at the beginning of the week we visit a couple of LQS and look for other ideas if we think we'll run out.

    The Puffins were done in a class at the LQS near my sister's house.

    Well we try and learn new techniques so even if we aren't too fussy on the project we all make one!

    My daughter has claimed my Spicy Spiral... I really didn't like the finished product but the process was fun! And I will probably never finish the appliques snowman hanging as I do far too much appliqueing in my baby quilt little side business!

    Fantastic projects! We have a "Strata wreath" demo next month at our quilt club. That top project reminds of those - sort of.

    What fun! Eating and sewing until you drop!

    Was she surprised at how small they are? I surely was the first time I saw them! I was so sure they were going to be the size of a chicken! But they are just flying potatoes!

    They are all great. I made about 6 Spicy Spirile table runners last year for Christmas gifts. I really like the Victoriam Table runner. And the Puffins, incredible.
