Busy, Snowy Weekend

Maybe I should really say "icy" weekend but it looks like snow!  We were iced in for 3 days - even church was cancelled.  It was fantastic!   Well, for me anyway.  I think for my Grandkids too!   It is not often here in Texas they get to go sledding and snow boarding.

This is 3 of them enjoying a day in the cold!   A bitter cold I might add.  Yes, I know, some of you say this is normal, but for NE Texas it is so NOT normal and these temperatures are NOT normal either.

Now for me, my hobbies are inside hobbies so it worked out great!  Unfortunately, one of my hobbies is gospel singing and this weather forced 3 of my quartet's inside performances to be cancelled/rescheduled.   Most we were able to reschedule, PTL!  So, this forced me to focus on my other hobby (no sad face from me).   This is what I was able to complete.   First, a T shirt quilt was quilted for my friend Peggy.

This is a large quilt for her grandson.   Please save your children/grandchildren's T shirts from their favorite activites.  You, too, can make this wonderful momento for them as they grow up.

Then I was also able to quilt Peggy's Santa Wall Hanging.  Isn't this cute?

This quilt was a fun one to quilt with my new quilt pattern called Tinsel    It is from Wildflower Quilting 
I was also able to grab a good photo of my quilt that I will list for sale on Etsy.
I hope your weekend was sew special too.
