Goodness Gracious

Greetings - Well I spent Sunday making fudge, peanut brittle, cookie dough and hand quilting! I will be ready for this holiday - no matter what! I have so enjoyed my Christmas tree this year - having only the tree lights on in the room makes it feel so Christmasy - I love seeing all the ornaments - remembering who made them - when it was given and received. I have a few ornaments left from the first Christmas with my daughter Stacy - hand sewed from felt with beads and sequins - photo ornaments from Rob in grade school, special ones from friends and loved ones. The holidays are really meloncholy for me - missing my husband and my parents - remembering all the crazy family holidays. I am hoping that this Christmas will add many more happy memories for my children, their families and yours too. Remember to always "KISS" these times (Keep It Simple Stupid)- a customer said that to me one day - I thought it was so funny !
Something work related - I currently have 2 great trunk shows hanging in the shop right now. My featured local quilter is Diane Marvin. She let us borrow her wonderful cathedral window quilt and a beautiful yo-yo coverlet - she is very productiveand severl other great quilts. We also have the traveling trunk show for the Winterfest Retreat that is being held in January. Lots of fun ideas to see and be inspired by!
Check out this website www.bakerella.com - its cute.
I must get to work. I wish you all the happiest of holidays - be safe and enjoy! Kaye
