Christmas gifts.

When I say busy....I really meant busy.  This Christmas I made 4 quilts to give as gifts.  My fingers, back, neck & arms were tired of sewing.......but I'd do it all again to see the look on everyones face.

First, was my mother-in-law.  This summer she gave me boxes of Tim's old jeans and KU t-shirts.  She thought I might like to make my kids a jean quilt.  Right then & there I knew I'd be making her a KU quilt.  We lost Tim back in March to cancer.  He & my mother-in-law were together for over 23 years. 

She loved it and I loved giving it to her. 

 

 

I had a few left over sweatshirts of Tim's so I made a quilt for his mom.  Goldie just turned 91 this month and she has had a rough 2012.  She lost her husband, son Tim, and oldest son, Earl all this year and all to cancer. She is one tough cookie!!  She was so overwhelmed with this quilt.  I couldn't think of a better gift for someone!!!!

I made two of Matt's Grandmas small lap quilts this year.  I forgot to get a picture of one, but they are similar in design just different colors.
