HELLO DOLLY!!


Here's "Sugar Plum Dolly" all finished.  I just love the way these quilts fluff up when washed.


A little closer view of those fluffed-up seams!  such fun to make. (A definite Peek-a-Boo)

I have to thank Connie, at "Green Apple Orchard "  for her tremendous video tutorial on cutting these seams. I followed her instructions--and VOILA--it came out perfectly.

That finishes up my Christmas sewing--and I have another  TA---DAH---finished all my shopping.  PHEW!  I am so relieved to have figured out what to give everyone.  Some years it is hard to know.

One last photo of the finished big "Sugar Plum Fairy" quilt:


And I am dancin' outta here for this grey Saturday afternoon...see you all later,

"SUGA, SUGA....HONEY HONEY..."



I am 1/2 done with this surprise  top--so now you can see that this will be a "rag" comfy little quilt--


You have to just love this fabric--the wings have sparkles on them, too!!


I numbered each left hand block row  (sorry for the blur here) eg: L1, L2 etc and then went very slowly sewing them together so that all the seams are exposed on only ONE side (sigh)...Four more rows to go.

And here is "Honey, Honey":--))---------- we had a super Thanksgiving at my daughter's :


All my wonderful grandchildren--aren't I lucky?  

Mmmwah to all
