It's been a while!

Hi everyone! I know It's been some time . I have had a broken leg and just not felt like posting or anything else for that matter. I brock it on Jan. 26 th so I have been layed up for some time.
Ironing board caddy.
I made the pink one for my self for all the odds and ends that lay on my ironing board.
I made the other one for my DF Linda in AZ.
I put a cord for scissors so they wouldn't get loss they will always be there when I need them.
WE had our monthly quilt meeting the 2ed Tue. of the month and we all made Ironing board caddy's. We always have a good time and we even had 2 friends from South Dakota join us.

I am on the road to recovery and out of the wheel chair and walker!! I find using a Cain not much better but it helps me get from one place to the other. I hope to get out of this boot they have me it in a few weeks. That will be much better.

Jan. Meeting

WE all got together for our first meeting of the year.
The hostess made us all a sack lunch it was great we all had fun with them. WE even had Cool Aid. WE all made the bags that the girls and I made for Christmas. They had a great time learning to make them and thought of all kinds of gifts they could use them for.











My GD Sara worked on quilt blocks while we were all doing bags.

My tree.

I got my tree up right after Thanksgiving. But Jennie came a week later and put the ornaments on for me. It looks so much better than this photo shows. I have really enjoyed it.

More bags!!

I made these for gifts on Sat. My granddaughter Sara,14 needed gift for all her friends . So Sara and I cut them out and Jennie and I sewed and Sara turned them She needed 8 of them and Jennie took some for gifts for her co-workers at the Quilt shop. I kept the brown poke-a-dot.







My friend Janie come over Friday and I showed her how to put them together the 2 below are hers.

The ones we made for Kristin were a great success. The girl's in the apartment at collage loved them.

Me and my girls!

Jennie and Kristin came and the 3 off us had a sew in to make gifts for here room mates at collage. I think there is 5 in her apartment with her. We had a good time and made 18 sleep mask and 10 large cosmetic bags in all. We stopped about 11:30 P.M. Sat. night. I think it was a very productive night of sewing. We were all 3 happy with the finished product. There is one small bag we made 1st . We decided to enlarge it. I like the larger ones much better.








Some of the mask have yellow lining and some red lining.

New window in the building.

I got a new window in the $$ pit. For 2 days I had a big open hole in my bedroom now everyone in town has seem my bedroom!

It turned into a bigger job than I expected. The wall was not good and we had to replace all the inside wall in the room.









I hope this stops the rain and water from coming in. The top of the old window had slipped 1/2" and was open . Water was coming in from the sidewalk when it rained. After all the work , $$ and time I hope it's fixed!





My new window.


Now to get the $$ for the other window!!!
