The Week Before Christmas

I had a huge Quilt, a queen size, due on Christmas Eve (I will post these pictures after Christmas, for obvious reasons). As time was getting down to the wire, panic set in, but I did get it finished. I even took time out to go to a Paint Class at Five Friends in Selma AL, where several people painted a cute "Jingle My Bells" picture. This one is mine.


This was really a lot of fun. After making candy and baking goodies all day it was nice to take a break and sit and enjoy the company of the group.


No Bake cookies


Walter's favorite Butterscotch Chocolate


Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Coconut Pecan Cookies

Papa's Divinity

Trays were made and the Kitchen cleaned up.

Then I had a few people drop off last minute Embroidery Gifts to be finished. One of the really GREAT things about having an Embroidery Machine and a Sewing Machine is the ability to sew and embroidery at the same time. I usually have both machines going at the same time.



This is a Velour Jacket with  a Standard Poodle that was a special order.




The jacket turned out perfect. This is a friends business design. She and two other ladies have those beautiful large poodles. I have attached a link to her business. They do a such a job.

I wrapped mountains of gifts and played Holly Jolly Blog Bingo at http://the-quilt-shoppe.blogspot.com/, which is still going on. What a busy week and what fun. This afternoon and tomorrow I plan on relaxing and enjoying a wonderful Christmas Eve gathering with Family. I hope your Christmas Holiday is a wonderful one. Merry Christmas to you and your Family.

Baby Olivia on MY quilt

What an honor to be glancing through baby pictures and recognize your quilt when you think what a great shot. This quilt was made with an Amy Butler pattern Belle and it is Beautiful. I had to hold back on selling it because I wanted it to go to my nieces new baby soon to be arriving. The colors stand out and really POP!
The Picture just does not do it justice.
As pretty as the quilt is I must say the sweet baby makes it even prettier!
Welcome Miss Olivia Ray.

I've been away from my blog for way to long. I am so sorry. I will do much better. I have just been so busy. The is my youngest sons first year at Auburn University so our family has gone to all the home games and will be going to the SEC Championship game tomorrow. The family, not me. I'm looking forward to sewing and relaxing. They are leaving in the morning at 5:00am. once they are gone I will have the house ALL to myself. I have items to embroidery, and I am working on a quilt that must be finished by Wednesday. No pressures. My goal is to post from here forward at least 3 days a week. I have lots to catch up on so please hang in there with me. Here are a few items I've been working on.
These are some cute Santa's and such fun to make. They are listed in my etsy shop QuiltDailey.etsy.com
