Edits from daughter and a thought...totally unrelated

 First will show you a couple more edits my daughter did...she printed them and put them in white frames, with white mats....they really look good displayed that way. 
 It was certainly time consuming, but really worth the effort.  I wish I had taken a picture of them in the frames
 *************************
 I was just thinking...it has been so long since I went to bed listening to the sound of a clock ticking.  I seriously cannot even remember the last time.  At one time it was a soothing sound...I don't know what I would think of it now.

And isn't it amazing just how many things have clocks on them...in my kitchen alone there is the stove, the microwave, the coffee pot, and the radio.   Every direction I look, there is a clock! 
 **************
I would tell you about the past four days, but you don't want to hear!  It was of the nightmare quality almost.  Not sure if I will be blogging regular or not for a little bit.  But hoping to get started again now that the holiday season is over.

Done at last, done at last

One of the reasons I haven't been blogging is I knew I wanted to finish this. It is amazing at the hours I put in this. Even if only paid $1 an hour, it would be a lot more money than most people would want to pay for it.

It was not a good day to take pictures. I may wait and take more late when there is at least some sunlight. I tried to show some of the quilting. It is nothing fancy but it is pretty when you can really see it all and not just a small section like this.  BTW, this quilt....Puss Puss and Bubbie absolutely love it.  They have snuggled in it every chance they have gotten.

You can barely see it if--even if you enlarge it.  It looks better as a whole than it does just to see this small section.


And I even put it up in the house to take photos...

So there you have what has occupied so much of my thinking time as well as working time.

Happy New Year

I will get back to blogging soon...just not quite ready yet...our little sweetie spent a couple nights with us.  She went back home yesterday morn.


I got this photo last night from her mom... Isn't she hilarious!  Sometimes it is hard to get her to give us just a regular face/smile.  I thought a couple or three shots of her were a fitting way to greet the New Year.

And here she was ready to go to a New Year's Eve party!  Notice the gold shoes!
