Can't wait for the photos. I am quilting my piece tomorrow. I am still unsure of how much stitching to put on it but I am going to plunge in anyway as it sure isn't getting any closer to done on the wall where it is. Photos to follow later PM Thurs I hope.

Have been very busy with quilts for Sandy victims, which will be personally delivered to Krystyna (doll quilt swaps).
We have quite a pile along with household items and toys. See my thread under "Requests". I pestered my Bee and they responded with a great quilter's CARE package. Maybe January's theme should be "a long winter's nap".

thank you so much for helping krystyna and friends. it's a wonderful thing you and the others are doing! i know grann of 6 is keeping very busy and doing beautiful work!
as for the long winter's nap, i could certainly go with that theme! i think i will be keeping a low profile in january! but for now the push is on!
before i forget-- the camera is being charged. then i will take pictures and post. i just had a great idea for the cuff--oooo, gotta write it down before i forget it! i have some-timers' very badly!

Hi All,
How about if you turn your experiments into mug rugs? I have the idea of collecting 600 for the kids in Newtown for Valentine's day. I think these kids will get plenty of toys, etc but by mid Feb a small gift of love & support would be nice.
Use up your kid friendly scraps & keep giving. Send to me- I'll keeo count- or straight to Newtown. Happy New Year! Dotty

i have loaded pictures of a few of the stockings i made for my kids. here's hoping i can attach them. fingers crossed!! i'm not sure these classify as art, but they were great fun to design and make. each is reversible with a fabric cuff ( as opposed to the fur. evidently i forgot to take pictures of that.) keeps me busy and off the streets, lol.

Well, I am finally going to post the pictures I promised a while back of my wedding quilt. This bride is into yellow and purple hence the colors. I used some new techniques to do the piecing so things went together faster than usual which was nice. This was a lovely quilt to work on. It should now be at the quilters being quilted. I don't know that part is out of my hands, I am just waiting to get it back to bind it in time for the wedding reception. jb
Obviously my pictures didn't take will try again.
