2 Finishes + 1 Freak Out

I finished these two quilts just in time for Christmas.

First up, my brother-in-law's

Single Guy Quilt!

made from this pattern.

This is seriously one of my all time favorite's!

Ever!

I suppose I really am a simple gal.

I gush over clean lines and fabulous colors!

For the back I used up my stash of Loulouthi Flannel.

It is the softest, most scrumptious flannel 

that ever ran through my machine.

Next up, a quilt for my Mom...

This quilt was a beast to photograph in it's entirety!
Made using this pattern.

I really loved the herringbone binding.

Navy blue has been calling my name lately!

Since I pulled this quilt right from the dryer and 

immediately wrapped it this is the best picture I snapped of it.

Yes I know it's upside down, argh!

Now my legacy is complete.

If I die walking down the street today every household 

in my family can say that I made them a lovely quilt.

So morbid!

And lastly, I try so hard to keep my distractions

to a minimum because I have a big family who needs me.

I don't really do anything with Instagram, Facebook, yaddee yadda...

because I want to be available.

But every now and then I look up from my sewing machine

(dishes, laundry....pick your poison)

and I see that my kids are growing up at hyper speed.

Sappy but oh so true!

Grandma and B

Just yesterday this kid was running around in a diaper.

Today, he is towering over all of us!

Next year he'll be walking the halls of the high school 

with his size 12 shoes.

He's only 13!

When did this happen???

That's all.
