h...e..double hockey sticks week!

This is it! The week I must get everything done and wouldn't you know it....I am fighting some sort of chest cold crud. No No No!


Today's Christmas angel is letter R and we will call her Rebecca.

This rather round quilty angel doubles as a pin cushion and can be seen hanging about in The Savage Quilter quilt shop in Oklahoma City.

I like her hair.


Quilt number one was completed yesterday. It's for my Grandson and yes, he likes penguins.



Quilt number two looks like this but will be finished and ready for show and tell tomorrow. And it will look nothing like this.
Now you know why I have not been painting much. Plus I am working on a piece I need to get submitted to a magazine this week. Geez, why do I do this stuff to myself?




...have a great week and may the angels be with you.....

Love the scrabble tiles...brings back many fond memories of gathering around the scrabble board at the kitchen table...cigarette smoke spiraling upwards, Sir Isaac insisting that it was bed time, the lazy susan spinning around...

How in the world do you have time? Love every one of the angels.

Take a breath! Slow down! Enjoy the season! I know--easier said than done. But your angels are so amazing & the quilt--way to go, girl. I haven't even put a tree up.

"R" is really sweet...love the little gingerbread guys on the fabric! I don't know how you get so much done...do you ever sleep?

Thanks everyone for the great comments. Yes, I am getting plenty of sleep. I am taking the time but other things are sliding like housework and decorating for the holiday. I put up two trees with lights and told DH if he wants them with decorations feel free to do it yourself....I don't have time. He is fine with it and always supports me.

I love the pin cushion, but the penguin quilt is FANTASTIC!! Great job! I can't wait to see the other quilt. My goal for 2009 is to learn to quilt.
