First, we have one of my feet wearing the very comfy and attractive socks made for me by Margi......I've talked about this in a few posts...how she rescued me and made the socks for me after I failed at my attempt to do them. I love them!!! Thanks, again, Margi!
Next we have a closeup of an absolutely gorgeous poinsettia plant I got yesterday. It was given to me by my quilty friend (and blogging buddy), Michelle. She and her hubby came to visit my husband and me. Michelle and I had some fun time with the GO! cutter as she cut out some HST's for a project she'll be starting soon. The hubbies talked...and then we all went out for a supper at a nice Italian place we like in downtown Rehoboth Beach....Nicola's. Then...it was home so they could see my husband's Christmas light display where the lights twinkle in time to music that you tune on your car radio. (Sorry I don't have pictures of it, but...trust me...it's a very nice light display.) We all had a very nice day! This last picture below shows part of my tumbler quilt (did a close-up in hopes you could see the nice quilting on it). Michelle quilted it for me on her long-arm and brought it back to me yesterday. She does such nice work. Today I went and chose binding for it. Well...actually, I let my friend, Sherry, who works a the LQS and is excellent with color choice, do the choosing for me. She chose something I'd never have picked, but it's a fun fabric and will look great when it's done! (I'll take another picture at that time.) OH...and great news.......the young gal in our family who is in the Air Force and was in Iraq has come HOME safe and sound...and just in time for Christmas!!! We are truly blessed!
