It's the day before Christmas, and all through the house.........

 Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse......

Is this your favorite Christmas story?  I know it is mine.

These past few days/weeks, there has been a lot of designing, sewing, quilting and the such around our house in preparation for the Christmas season.

This is my newest quilt, Heart and Home.  It is off the quilting frame now and awaiting time for me to prepare and sew on the binding, hanging sleeve and put its label on it.








I really did some custom quilting on this one to make the parts stand out.  Let me know what you think of the quilting.  I would love some feed back, good or bad or just other ideas.

This is a quilted table runner is for Jeff's youngest son.  He asked for a table runner in red and black for his coffee table that his dad made for him last year.  I really like how it turned out.  I think I need to make another one or two in different colors.  It was easy and fast to make.  I used the backing fabric as the binding as well.  I guess I didn't get that picture taken once it was finished.  I think he'll like it.  Hope so, anyway.

Now, on to cooking, baking and cleaning house for company tomorrow.

It looks like it's going to be ham, shoepeg corn, scalloped potatoes, broccoli, rice and cheese casserole with some purple hull peas.  Let's top it off with some banana cream pie, pumpkin bread and pumpkin cheesecake.  Doesn't that all sound delicious?

What is on your agenda for Christmas dinner?  I'm sure it will all be just yummy.

Merry Christmas to all my friends, family and blog followers!  Hoping for a healthy and prosperous New Year in 2016!

Happy quilting!
