It seems like just yesterday that I was asking about 2012 and now here it is almost 2014.
I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and that your New Year will be all that you hope for. As always I appreciate you stopping by and love to read the comments you leave.
I have not been in my sewing room for a long time – life just kept getting in the way. I have done quite a bit of cross stitch and recently had this piece framed. It is “Birds of a Feather” designed by Brenda Gervais of With Thy Needle and Thread. Brenda does such a lovely job with her designs.
I am currently working on this one and working with the silk thread is a real plus. It behaves wonderfully.
I planned to sew today, but I am not sure what I want to work on – do you ever get that way? I did make a challenge quilt, but I cannot show it until the fall.
After all of the Christmas decorations are put away I will be hand quilting this. I am thinking way ahead and it will be for my grandson when he is grown up. When he was just a little guy he loved to watch the birds. I am still debating about what I want to do on the bottom I might just quilt the date into it.
Until next time.

Lovely sampler!
I think the heirloom quilt for your GS will be a certain treasure.
You are so prolific I'm sure you'll be back in your sewing room soon.
I have never used silk thread. I thought it would be slippery to work with.
Your sampler is beautful. The quilt is stunning. Happy quilting and stitching. Ruthie
