Friends...

 My fabulous friend Gail came into work yesterday to show me the quilt she made for her adorable grandson. I gave her a panel of the crybabies on the border and she has made a few projects with them.  On this quilt, the center fabric was given to her by friends who are from China.  The border fabric she got at one of our mutual favorite quilt shops and the cornerstones are the crybaby fabric.  She backed this quilt in a blue minky...If I were a baby, I would want this quilt to never leave my side!!!  This little guy is going to have a new love in life...
I was showing Gail the baby quilt that is made of pirate fabric and she took a picture of my husband and I.  Friends are the best...I just love them!!

and finally...December's Birdie Stitches block!!!

I am just thrilled to finish up block 12 of this BOM, Birdie Stitches from the blog www.littlemissshabby.com.  I had so much fun with this project...I cut up my scraps and sewed them up and now I am working on constructing the quilt.  It will be a queen 84"x84".  Hopefully I can find another fun BOM to do this coming year that has been as fun as this one!!  Stay tuned to see how this quilt turns out!!

Patchwork Friends Christmas Social

 Prior to going to our quilt guild Christmas social, we made a stop at My Girlfriend's Quilt Shoppe.  They had the unveiling for their mystery quilt.  I have to tell you that these girls have it going on.  They know how to make absolutely darling patterns and have fun for all the quilters coming in their store.  By the way, for those of you who didn't know this, they do the DIY Dish, an online resource for fun projects.  Check it out sometime.
