2 more days to go !!!!!!

Yes, I only have 2 morework days, hubby has 6......he is going to work all next week, then Friday and Saturday will be his last days as well as mine.I am sooooooo glad, we have been home almost 3 weeks, but have tried to get my house in order, then Thanksgiving. My Sister and her hubby came down and stayed several extra days,they are planning to buy a house here and retire. I am looking forward to living in the same town as her, we haven't lived close in about 44 years. It's about time, don't you think ???? We share a love for quilting so we should have a lot to do to keep us busy, our hubbys get along really good too, so maybe our "golden" years can be spent together.
I do hope all of you had a great Thanksgiving, and are looking forward to Christmas. I know I am. I have done part of my shopping,but most of all I am looking forward to next week...........I PLAN TO SEW,SEW,SEW..... I have 4 baby quilts ready to sandwich, then get started quilting. I am so ready to be at the sewing machine again. Will get to sandwiching tomorrow afternoon! Don't want to miss a minute at the machine!
Those of you that live in my hometown,what did you think of the beautiful snow.....I love that kind, you know, the kind that stays only a short while LOL , it sure is cold now though....But that is what it's supposed to be, after all it is December.
Hubby and I had to buy a new refrigerator when we got home in July, so finally all my appliances match,they're black, but we have a stainless sink, I never have liked it, so we decided to replace it with a black one, also new fixtures. He will try and get that done when we get home next week. I am looking forward to that also.....Have you got the idea that I'm looking forward to LOTS of things??? We have been away from home way to much .....been at this job almost 6 years....it's time to settle back down and take life easy!
I promise that the first of the new year I will have some pictures to post, but have forgotten what little I knew about how to do that,but soon..............
Hope to hear from you guys that I used to hear from and maybe some new bloggers.....but until next time, remember to keep quilting memories......Bobbin!!

Great Nephew and Quilt's















These pictures of the baby is of my great nephew, he is so sweet,

as you can see he is learning to feed himself, and having a great time doing so.He was so proud of himself, every time he would get that spoon in his mouth he would just GRIN. We enjoyed being with him and his Mommy and Daddy while we were at Myrtle Beach. His Dad is a Marine and we are so proud of him, he very proudly serves our country. God Bless all our troops, wherever they may be.

The other 2 pics are quilts I have finished while here at home. The Christmas quilt is now quilted and hanging in our LQS.It certainly makes me proud when the owner thinks my work is good enough to display.I know all of these are panels, but I do enjoy making quilts using panels, they are so quick and easy.The 2 with the carriages are for two different little girls, hope they like them. Of course they are too young to know what they like so hope their parents are pleased with them.

I have the fabric ready to make our Great Grandson another quilt and was planning to give it to them for Christmas, but don't know if I will get it done. ( No it's not a panel). I am going to have my shoulder operated on this coming Tuesday. My rotator cuff is torn, so need to get that taken care of. I have been in a LOT of pain, so am looking forward to getting this behind me.

I haven't been on here very much since we got back home, but maybe when I get to feeling better, I can post a little more often.

Take care and hopefully all of you are getting ready for the holidays and quilting a LOT of memories.
