Lexie's wedding

Well I finally have got some pictures put on here of the wedding. Hope you enjoy them and I

am so sorry that it took me so long to share them with you.

Our new bookcase

John has been very busy in his workshop/garage again. he made us a new bookcase which is filled already and I told him we need another one. John buys books at garage sales--infact yesterday he got five new ones. The bottom picture is of the new nightstand(s) he made to go with our bed he made a year or so ago. I love his love of woodworking. I benefit greatly from it.

New year's challenge.

I wanted a christmas quilt this last Christmas and couldn't find one I could afford and that I liked so my challenge to myself this year is to make a Christmas quilt. My neighbor had given me a bunch of material when she moved and there was some christmas print fabric in it so I dug it out. dug my quilt block templates out and chose a pattern. I have cut out all the pieces, only had to buy the white material. So far I have got nine blocks pieced together. Need 11 more and then square them up and piece all of them together. then QUILT!!! here's a sample.
