The big giveaway

Ok so I started this group through church. It's a quilting group and we make quilts and other things for other people. We have made one for a new member and one for the latest baby baptised, but the best is when we go to the nursing home and give one of our residents a new quilt and when we went to the homeless shelter and gave them 4 quilts. We also made 30 patchwork quilted frogs stuffed with split peas to the food bank. There are a lot of kids that come in there with their parents and they need something for Christmas. Frogs are one of my favorite things and I love giving them away. we have been in the paper as you can see.

though not the greatest quality of copy here I am the goofy lookin one in the middle. And again you can't see it very well but that is one of our frogs I am holding.

Now I have a new challenge. I will continue with this group making quilts and frogs and anything else we can think of. But I have also been asked to provide several pieces of my creations for an art contest. Well imagine my suprise when I was asked. After all I love my stuff I just dint expect anyone else to. I have several pieces in mind and I may have to do some more creating.

I also have those classes I will begin teaching in Jan. Quilting and scrapbooking classes. I hope this really becomes something I am so excited about it I can hardly stand it.

Oh and more news. Cisco you will really understand this one.

My grandmother moved to FL near my mother. I have not seen her in 15 years. Grady does not even remember her as he was 2 the last time she was here. Well this Christmas we are going to FL. to spend it with family and I cannot wait to see my grandmother.

I hope everyone has a safe wonderful and loved filled Christmas.
