We had an enjoyable Christmas at home with our children–it was great to be able to spend time together and just enjoy the season. We enjoyed the family and friends we were able to visit with and missed those loved ones who we weren’t able to see this year.
Here is a beautiful framed piece I received from my friend Dawn. I absolutely love it! How did she know that I’ve really been wanting to make quilts with hexagons? The stitchery is lovely and perfectly complements the block! Thanks, Dawn!
And here are a few more of my “quilty” goodies…the angel on the left is a lovely gift from Valerie who was my SSCS partner. She is gorgeous and came with such a lovely stand as well! The quilt book and the “May your bobbin always be full” sign came from my friend Gail (no blog), and the gorgeous needle case and wooden spool ornament are also gifts from Dawn. I also received a beautiful iron quilt rack that I’ve already hung on the wall in the front entryway…first on my list is to make a new quilt for it!

I am glad to hear you had such a wonderful Christmas! Your presents are lovely! Good luck with cleaning and organizing. I try to do a bit each day, but somehow forget (is it really forgetting?)

Isn’t Dawn clever. That is such a great gift. Well they all are. I’m glad it was a good holiday for you and yours.

I am finally catching up with blog reading, and have spent a bit of time at yours. Beautiful gifts you’ve made and beautiful gifts you received! Good luck with the organizing, and I can’t wait to see the new projects. Happy New Year!

You’ll have to give us a book review of “The Tale of Alices Quilt”. It’s one I haven’t seen before. Looks like you had a nice quilty Christmas.
Joy says
Your framed hexagons are gorgeous – I have a weakness for hexies, love ’em :o). You got some fabulous gifts Sherri!! That book looks good, I haven’t heard of that one before. You’ll have to let us all know what it’s like ;o).
Have a great New Year …
Hugs,
Joy :o)

Lovely gifts! I’ll be able to get organized once everyone is back at work and school. Then I’ll lock myself away and sew new projects.
