A LITTLE DOLL QUILT SURPRISE

DOLL QUILT SWAP
AUGUST 2013

Here is what came in the mail on Wednesday

PLUS
Some extra Goodies inside
 The BACK is just as cute

Now..it's my Turn
This is a sneak peak of the doll quilt I made for my swap partner.
  I will show the whole quilt once she receives it!

I'm ALMOST...REALLY CLOSE..to 
Finishing my commissioned
"Literacy Quilt"
I would never get rich if I depended on my quilting speed and abilities.  Geez, I'm slow.  it might help if I got it right the first time.  I ripped out the quilting TWICE because it didn't suit me.  I'm certainly not asking someone to pay for something I don't like myself.  I FINALLY found the pattern and thread I liked.  Then I spent most of my time fighting with my sewing machine.  My thread kept breaking due to tension issues and wrong needle choice.  Geez Louise...I NEED a new sewing machine in the worst way!  

Well, it's Friday Night..Pizza Night...Jane doesn't cook night!  Tractor Man is back Coaching Football this season so I am once again  Friday Night widow unless it's a local/home game and then I go along with some of the family depending on their family schedules.  I've got some cute pics of Grandson James cheering with the High School Cheerleaders...adorable!  I'll share in a later post.

Until Then...............................................................................................................................

CAMP GRANDMAMA... END OF SUMMER...BACK TO SCHOOL

 SUMMER'S OVER
BACK TO SCHOOL
PICTURE
GALLERY
2013

SUNNY DAY...SNEAK PEEK

This has been an unusual summer...very wet...no 100 degree days...just different.
I've spent a LOT of time putting up veggies from the garden and made jams/jellies from fruits growing on the farm. 

Camp Grandmama & PaPaw2013 
was a huge hit.  Every summer, the Grandpeeps spend the week before school starts at our house from 7:00-3:00.  From horse rides, 4 wheeler rides, water day with the sprinkler, relay races, crafts, baseball, to a picnic complete with fishing with PaPaw, Camp 2013 was memorable.  I've lost the fishing pictures but when I find them I will post.

Here are more pictures documenting my summer.

 First Day of School Aug. 19th, 2013
Reminds me of a previous post I wrote on

Sneak Peek of Doll Quilt for a swap

Please go visit some great blogs for a creative assortment of Hexie projects.  I didn't get in this Hop quickly enough.  I meant to post about it earlier so please HURRY over...GO NOW!!


SCOTT SAYS BYE FOR NOW...
PRETTY SWEET SET-UP DON'T YOU THINK?  He was thinking he might want to stay with Grandmama rather than start school.  I would like to agree with him but Life does march forward and my babies grow up...BOO HOO

I'll be keeping another little boy, age 18 m., part time starting next week so I'm sure I'll have pictures of little H once I get his parent's approval.

Blessings 
Gmama Jane
