Alone time....

Shayla and I have the house to ourselves this weekend...she's keeping mama warm at night snuggling up to my back like daddy usually does...it's better...she doesn't snore...lol!
Hubby and Broc went to the men's retreat with the church....will be back Sunday afternoon.
It has been raining all night and day....the trees love it, the flowers love it and I love it!
My friend Dalana and her two daughters came by for a visit...that was enjoyable...watched Narnia and now I'm headed to bed to watch the second Narnia "Prince Caspian"....I like this one better!
I'll share a little project with you on Monday...just in time for Valentines Day!
Have yourselves a nice Sunday!

So much catching up to do...

I can't believe it's February already....where is this year going already...before you know it the holidays will be upon us again...lol...not that fast yet!
I finally found my cord for my camera so I can share some pictures....enjoy!
 
  
  
  
Above are the simple quilt tops that I sewed for the Nursing Home ministry through the Dorcus Circle at church.
 
 
This is my birthday present from Robin and Aaron...Robin hand crocheted this for me...hot pink and black...I love it..with you could see the ruffle around the edges...it's beautiful. I snuggle up with this one and the heart one Janet sent me last year...keeps me toasty warm!

 
I now have a nice work station down stairs...this is the sewing machine my neighbor gave me and this is where I put the quilt tops together....I found this computer desk at the Goodwill for $5.00...can't beat that price!
 
 
  
  
  
The above is my latest fabrics I got for projects...the first two fabrics are for my new living room curtains...they will be double sided so I can use one side all year and the other will be for Christmas as it has holly leaves on it...I designed the pattern, hubby drew it out on cardboard and I have the template....I will be working on them this weekend while hubby is on a men's retreat this weekend...the whole house to myself and of course Miss Shayla!
The next set of fabrics are for a table topper...I purchased the solid bird fabric first and then came across the panel this week at Wallmart of all places...the pictures don't do this fabric justice to the vibrancy of the colors...I'm excited to get this done too!
That's it for now....have a blessed weekend!

A new mug rug


Here's my new mug rug I made last night while waiting for hubby to get home from the "Men's Worship" night at church.
I had to retire my snowman one I made a couple of years back as a challenge on the F.A.T. group.
It's done in my fave colors, purple and the flowers are all hand crocheted....it looks lovely with my purple coffee mug sitting on it...lol!

Beautiful creations

It's been a yucky week.....sick and couldn't do anything...no energy and still not over it but I'm sick of being sick...lol, ok enough complaining!

I want to show you a couple of creations my grand children made a couple of weeks a go when they spent the night.....

This is called "Beauty on the Beach"....Evelyn made this one...you can see the colored glue melted all over the piece....she has quite the imagination!
 

This one Caleb did and I think it's called "Warrior Man".....not sure!
I love their imaginations when putting these together....they had a ball...Papa just pulled out all the driftwood (4 boxes) and shells (8-10 boxes) and let them go! They first picked out their faces and painted them, then started to create from there.
