Good afternoon everyone! I’m sorry it’s been so long since I’ve posted, but we have been so busy here with school starting and Christmas sewing that I haven’t had much of a chance to type anything up.
When we went on our vacation, I came home with some Dresden plates that my Grandmother made out of flour sacks about 40 years ago! They are absolutely beautiful!!! My Mom and I laid them out to see if I had enough to make a queen size quilt for my bed, and I DO! Isn’t that exciting? You know what is even more exciting? There are enough of them to make matching pillow shams and I will still have a few left over, so 1 of these beauties is going to be made into something special for a special person I owe a very big Thank you to!! I can’t tell you who, because I know she will probably read this and I don’t want to spoil the surprise, but I can show you how beautiful these are. I hope you have a drool bucket because you are going to be in awe! Oh and these are all hand stitched together by my grandmother!!
See I told you they were beautiful. Ok wipe your mouth now. Aren’t those prints lovely? Well until next time…………………..
Happy Crafting!!!
