TACIT TUESDAY (snip snip edition)

Julierose, La Blageuse  :---))) (click on pictures for a closer view)

"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

SUGARPLUM FAIRIES ARE COMIN' TO TOWN.....

Sugar Plum Fairies Dancin' into town today...Fa-La-La-Laaaa-
La-La-La--Laaa.  I've been busy sewing these girls into rows today--what fun!!  
This is the "Shhhh" project I'm working on.  Also, making a mini-matching quilt for someone "special".  {Keep it under your hat}

Also, got my Mary Mandala mounted:

The background fabric was a gift from a close friend who got it for me when she visited China last year.  Now, I have to find a frame.....

Here's a closer look at the beading.. and...

here's a good shot of those hands--they are so evocative of my life, Tom's, Mom's and all my musician friends....

Tonight I made my Minestrone zuppa and we munched on garlic bread along with it--yummy. 

 It IS a wonderful life....Julierose, La Blageuse ["...Santa Claus is comin' to Town]

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

I BRING YOU, ALL MY BLOGGY FRIENDS,  MY GOOD WISHES FOR A WONDERFUL TURKEY DAY--ENJOY, Julierose, La Blageuse

MANDALA PROGRESS AND A TA-DAAAA

I have finished the circle part of Mom's Christmas Mandala and now need to mount it--I am happy with the way it's turning out so far...actually, the colors are much more vibrant than this pix shows.
