JUST DUCKY!!!

This sweet quilt was made for my adorable nephew! He was born two weeks early and of course I wasn't ready!!! I did have it done by the due date though! As cute as this quilt is, trust me, Jack is MUCH more adorable!

I made the ducks out of minkie! SO soft!

I used flannel backing (and some on the top) from my husband and his sister's grandmother's fabric.

(By the way this counts as number 2 of 12 for the year!)

Here is a beautiful tree skirt by a client who pieces perfectly! What a joy to work on such pleasurable art!

And a shot of the back!

Beautiful quilt that also used Minkee as backing!

Blizzard 2011

Well, this post doesn't have much to do with quilting, (except reasons why I didn't get time to sew during these snow days). It does, however have some interesting pictures.


First of all, yesterday at around 3:15 CT, our daughter was going to wash her hands in the bathroom and along the way, she tripped on her own two feet and hit her head on a wooden chair splitting her head open! SO....it's a blizzard and our daughter's head is bleeding all over the place!

















Okay, two hours later, we are on our way home. We have to pick up our boys, who we left at our wonderful neighbor's house. Here is the pictures of our drive home.

Okay, so we made it back to pick up our boys from our wonderful neighbor's house, only we ended up stuck numerous times and realized that we weren't going any further! SO, we had a sleep over at our super hospitable neighbor's. The kids were SO excited! They were in heaven!

It wasn't long and we weren't the only neighbors that got to their house and realized it was the end of the road. We had quite the slumber party! Playing cards till after 1am!

The next morning, when the wind started to die down, and the sun came out, we headed home on foot. These are the pictures of that adventure! Here are my two boys and husband pulling our daughter who is holding on to the rope for dear life as she layed down (wrapped in a blanket--we didn't think a tight stocking cap was a great idea!) This is our road!

Here is my husband's truck that got stuck as he tried to plow a path for us to get home!

Now, here we have finally reached the driveway...or have we? It used to be here!

Beautiful Butterfly

This is one quilt I had a hard time returning! I think this is one I may have to do myself someday! She did a great job piecing it!
