quilt monday

About 5 years ago, I used to have wall hangings and table runners in a local store for sale. Whenever I made a little something, I would make two. One for me, one for the store.

The store closed and I ended up with lots of quilty goodies. I sold off/gave away all of them. At least that is what I had thought.


Mom was pulling out her Christmas stuffs a few weeks ago when she found a bin full of Christmas quilties that I had had for sale. And wouldn't you know it, I already had one of each of what was in the bin.

I was pretty excited; got to cross of some Christmas projects with the finding these.

Here are two of them. Sorry for the picture; it's late. I meant to do this post when I got home from work but we had piano lessons than a mad dash out to the mall for bigger sized snow boots(the two kids that needed boots wear the same size. and they wanted the same boot. and there was only 1 pair left in their size) and a heavier, thicker hoody for our oldest who refuses to wear a coat(can anyone else relate? lol) Than it was off to church for the kids' Christmas practice, some laundry when we got home and here we are lol.



4 more days of school until Christmas holidays-yay!!

My youngest son refused to wear a jacket while he was in high school unless it was 20 degrees or lower. I thought I would lose my mind. He also insisted on t-shirts with regular length sleeves. He insisted that it was warm in school and warm in the car so why did he need a jacket for the 2 minute walk from the car to school. At least your son will wear something!

After four kids I finally learned why middle-schooler on up won't wear coats. 1. They don't fit in their locker. 2. They don't use their lockers in high school bz they're running from class to class and a coat is too bulky to use with a backpack even though they're walking outside in the bitter subzero weather! At least this is what my youngest tells me, lol! Love your quilties!

My 16 yr old son has yet to wear a coat this season, although today it's about 35 out. I don't think he's worn a coat since last March. He tells me that he doesn't need a coat to go from the car to the house or to school. Maybe I should make him take the bus.
