Sewing for my Great Granddaughter
I have been inspired to create something beautiful for the most photogenic little one I know, my Lily. She is 2 yrs. and really a precious gift. I have taken 12 of the many dozens of photographs taken of her and transferred to fabric after printing them off on transfer paper. I designed original crooked frames, and placed each picture of her inside. Then, I trimmed each block in 1/2 in lace, and after they were placed on the top and stitched into place. This evening I finished hand stitching the border in place, and all that is left is to applique some little hearts between the photos.

Christmas time
Today as I arrived home from Arkansas, I walked in the door to see the Christmas tree. My husband surprised me and had the tree up in our Living room. Now all I have to do is decorate. This evening before I get my crochet and curl up on the couch to work, I will decorate! Time to get a bit of Christmas Spirit and spread some Christmas cheer.
So I got started... excuse the poor picture, flash, etc...??
