I had some time off, but I was not off during the entire holiday season like I am used to. I user a lost (most) of my vacation time with Miranda’s Accident.
As always, I have big plans for my quilting/Sewing and it did not happen. My sewing room is a disaster, because we had company for new years. This means that everything got dumped in my room. I look at it right now and it frightens me. Trying to move stuff a bit at a time, but it seems to be daunting task.
I wanted to make a page for all the items I really need to finish this year. Did not that done either. Of Course On December 30th I was at the Immediate Care with Bronchitis. It figures. Company coming and I am sick. I made it through, and had fun. Two of my sister came for the New year, which had never happened before. We had a Chinese gift exchange which involves stealing gifts etc…. I wound up with a toilet light. It was meant to be funny (and it is) but I also find is useful. Makes me not have to turn on lights when I get up at night. Unfortunately, my nephew Alex got the gift I provided. Cottenelle wipes, Toilet Paper and PooPourri. Needless to say He won for worst gift. It was worth a laugh though.
I did manager to work on my English Paper Piecing and finished the one that will go on my dresser. Dog Bones for the crazy Dog Lady. I have now begun work on the nightstands and will eventually get to Kevin’s dresser. I like to work on my English paper piecing while I am watching TV with Kevin or my daughters. Gives me something to do besides snack.
I plan to attempt to quilt dog bones on the dog bone dresser scarf. Will see how that goes.
Happy Quilting

Ah, the holidays – they kick my butt these days. I can relate. But we will plug along, won’t we? I know a lot of people who feel like 2016 was a rough one. Let’s aim for a glorious 2017!
I love how the outside of the table runner reflects the bone color – great choice!

I love the runner…too cute! A word of caution: I made a list of all my WIPs and promptly got depressed. Just say no to the list. Happy 2017 and happy quilting!

The runner is so cute! Pat yourself on the back for finishing that project, if that were me EPP .. I probably be at it all this year yet! Sure glad that sickness didn’t ruin your whole holidays.

It’s a lovely table runner, so glad to see you had a finish. I’m betting that makes it feel not so bad that you missed your days off, and then got sick on top of it. I hope all the effects of that sickness are gone now, and your life is a little calmer.
