Treasured Christmas gifts

This is the time of year that we are busy choosing the right gift for our family and friends. We are bombarded with advertisements on every side. So much to choose from, which way to turn.

As quilters and artists, it is the perfect time to share our talents with those we love. There are few things as treasured as a gift made with our own two hands. Above is a pillow that my mother made. My mother doesn't quilt but does lovely handwork. Each time I look at it, I think of her. She is always eager to try something new and she has taught me to always give my best effort to the job.

As I am working on projects for my family, I have time to think of them and the joy each of them have brought into my life. The time we share together is the true gift of the season.
