Christmas Quilts for the grandchildren

My mother embroiders but doesn't quilt. We decided to put our varied skills to work and make quilts for our Grandchildren/Great Grandchildren. The blue centers of the freedom log cabin blocks in this quilt were embroidered by my mom. They certainly added interest to this project which will become an heirloom treasure for little Nicholas.

Not all Christmas gifts are made of Christmas fabrics (as much as we love that wonderful red and green).

  2. Sharon,
    You are amazing. I think your next book should be on time management. With all you accomplish, you are an expert. Love your fabric baskets and the Christmas quilt too. Also the quilt for Nicholas. A Merry Christmas to you and your family.

  3. Really, I am amazing? ha ha ha
    Or is that? ho ho ho

    Seriously, I can't show this year's gifts -- people maybe be watching. These were gifts made for Christmas last year.

    Merry Christmas to all of you, too.
