WOW!!

What a beautiful day we had today! It was 71 and wonderful. Had a couple of showers this afternoon, but they didn't mess up the day. Believe it or not both Mr. Bob and Mrs. Shirley and Mrs. Lil and Mr. Stan are all here now. Mr. Stan isn't doing to well. He has had 2 heart attacks since they were here last and Mr. Bob finally had to put his mother in a nursing home.

Mimi has taken up her hobby of beads again. I am including a pic of her latest.



I realize the items are hard to see and will try to do better the next time. She made the earrings for me and the necklace for herself. I think she has done and excellent job!

I finished the first block in my sampler. This block is from the Jinny Beyer website and is called Andromeda. I am completely handpiecing this quilt. Each block will get a little harder as I go. Haven't had time to trim the edges yet. Shelby doesn't like the colors but I do. What do you think?

I'm also including this picture of the winter scarf Sissie made for Mimi. She loves it and wears it all the time. Sissie you can make me one to as she won't let me wear hers!

Well hope you all have a nice day. Looking foward to you guys updating your craft project pictures.
