January and February Finishes

Wow!  I'm getting things done!  I'm so glad to be able to share these completions :)

January completions:
-Mom's quilt, completed the binding, put on a label

-Blue Heart Wall Hanging
-finished Mortimer Moose

February completions:
-diaper bag for neighbor across the street (and you can see the blue hearts hanging over the chair behind the sewing machine hee hee)

I will be posting separately about this bag, and FYI, I am extremely proud of how it turned out

-small blanket for boss's first granddaughter

-giraffe for Great Grandma

-owl for Mom's birthday (which is my birthday too, I got snow boots yay!) my grandpa helped me make the frame, so this present was completely handmade!

-Triple Decker Ice Cream Cone to celebrate best friend's new baby

Pattern inspired by Eleanor Burns/Sue Bouchard Ice Cream Cone Quilt

 

Projected March finishes:
-Flags on a Stick blog hop flag
-Christmas Candles cross-stitch (I've been digging thru my hobby room and discovered UFOs *eye roll*)
-a bag for myself using the diaper bag pattern, but as we've no babies yet, it will be a project bag made using fabric my thoughtful husband got me for my birthday via a gift card :)
-another Triple Decker, my aunt owns an Ice Cream Parlor in Leavenworth, WA, oh and here's some pictures from that trip:

 Seriously, there are quilt patterns everywhere!

 It was 26 degrees, but so worth it, I love the snow!

Congratulations to Janarama on winning my drawing from the Don't Let the Door Stop You Blog Hop!  An email has been sent her way and I await an address.  I hope she will enjoy the little extras I'm going to put in there.  :)  Do visit her at sewpeacetopeace.blogspot.com when you get a moment.  She told me her inspiration comes from books, magazines, blogs, and all over the internet.  I was amazed at how many of us are influencing each other through our blogs, it makes me very happy to think I could inspire one of you.  Thank you all for visiting, come back again soon!

Super Bowl Sunday

Thanks for visiting my blog for the Don't Let the Door Stop You blog hop, my post for it is one down from here.  I just have to say, WOO HOO SEAHAWKS!!  and share some pictures from yesterday.  We had a blast, and a lot of delicious food.

This was actually a last minute request by my dad Thursday afternoon to be able to take to work Friday morning, so it's a little more simple than I'd normally do, but looks great!

I've started requesting that I make/bring the vege tray, so I know there's something I will eat and that other people will eat.  Plus, I actually prepare them from fresh veges...

 

We took over mom and dad's living room. (You can see mom's quilt draping on the couch, it's a recent finish so I point it out to everyone)

 

Here's Grandpa and Uncle Jerry.  They maintained that position pretty much for 3 full hours, except to get up and eat :)

Can you tell we're watching one of "those" commercials?

Konnie the cat was totally into the game, as you can see.

 

 

Yay team!  We're so proud of the Seattle Seahawks, and are very much looking forward to next season!  Thanks for letting me share my excitement with you :)
