Merry Christmas


I'm a few days early for Christmas day but here at my home Christmas has past.
Tuesday the last daughter left to go home, after two full and wonderful weeks. 
It has been one of the best Christmas in years.

Still have Christmas Eve services to look forward to. 

While the grandsons were here we we're able to go on the Polar Express Train and it was wonderful. If you have one going on in your area you should think about it. The boys loved it and we have memories that will last a lifetime beside the warm feeling in my heart.  



Ben believes..


I was able to get their PJ's done in time and they fit for the most part. They have a little room to grow.



 Blake was concern that others would laugh if he wore the robe. It's sad that a 4 year olds thinks that. Tried to reassure him that many of the other kids will be wearing robes too ..... and they did.
Ben wasn't of that thought, he eagerly wore his.


They both are adorable no matter what they wore.
Hope he outgrows that thought.


Did get the boys hands print on the tree skirt and will continue to have them make their prints each year.

I had bought a new bed for my guest. Seeing how it would be in the sewing room and temporary I found this air bed that came with it's support.
It is pretty comfortable I was told and a breeze to set up. 


And to deflate and put away.
Has a air pump in the bed so no going through the hooking up each time you need it.


Here it is deflating, all I did was was turn on the pump to deflate.



So easy, in a matter of a few minutes it is ready to push together like an accordion.



The case is what the bed sit on when inflated and then just zip it up, with rollers so moving is a piece of cake.
Ready for next time.



Here is what Christmas is about for a Grammy.

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section          The joints you'll need will be 2 - 3/4" elbows 2 - 3/4" T's 2 - 3/4" to 1" T (this will be the base of the Feet) 4 - 1" elbow Also need pipe cutters (this cost me almost as much

Yarn Along 2/20/13 Spoon Pin Doily

It's snowing here and I know some of you are tired of snow but here we will take the moisture any way we can get it. Plus it just gives me a reason to stay in and work on some of my projects. In this picture I'm not sure if you can make it out but in the background there are some wild turkeys that hang around the house sometime, just  chilling This project I'm working on is Spool Pin Doilies.   I had never heard of them before until Bonnie Hunter had mentioned it on her blog . She a had a viewer send her one for her sewing machine along with a pattern. I did not like the pattern but loved the idea so I decided to make up my own version. I wanted a more simple, smaller and fuller doily. So I tried different thread sizes to get one that I like. (From left to right) I tried sock yarn, which I'll redo because I think I like that look. Heavy weight crochet thread, nope too big Bamboo yarn, I like it. Looks good on my Kenmore. Pearl cott
