Christmas is comming

Christmas is around the corner. So I made some table runners. The top runner was so fun to make. I loved all the colors.. Cute... cute...
I'm asking Santa for a Willow Tree Nativity so I made the bottom runner to set it on (hopefully crossing my fingers) Santa I hope your listening to me !!!!

Pumpkin Carving 2008

The Annual Pumpkin Carving at Grandpa and Grandma's . We have a tradtion that we carve pumpkins for Halloween. We had a Pizza Party and then carved Pumpkins. Kolt had Dubb help him carve his pumpkin he picked a Black Widow Spider and Dubb had his work cut out for him. Kolt would jump up and down and say "My pumpkin is almost done" as Dubb did all the work. Kyle picked a awesome cat to carve so Shawn helped him carve that out. Grandma make a funny face and she called her pumpkin "jack o Fong" look at his cute eyes!! I got to take all the fun pic's for the blog. HAPPY HALLOWEEN :)

Halloween Carnival 2008

Tonight we had our Ward Halloween Carnival. Dubb suprised me and came to have some fun! It was fun to see all the cute kids all dressed up. The Actvities Committee asked the Young Women to help make a fish pond for the kids. So I made the Curtain and we hung it from a blackboard. The kids were all lined up as soon as they saw us setting up the curtain. We had good food and lots of laughs!!

Praire Points

Miss Jan told me about this cute little quilt shop in bountiful called Quilter's Haven so I just had to take a peek and see what cute things they had. I went into it and almost bought the store! I got 3 new table runner patterns. I made "PRAIRE POINTS" for my first time and it was so FUN!!! I just love the moda charm packs they have all the matching fabric and you can't go wrong!Just sew until your hearts content :)

Birthday Money !!

I got money for my birthday so I made fall table runners. I had Ruth machine quilt it and look at the cute pumpkins and fall leaves she is amazing! I had lots of help on my corners from Jan and Pam. I was using really "puffy" batting and it made it so hard to make the corners. I used "Warm and Natural batting this time and it made a HUGE difference it was a piece of cake to make the corners all cute. I used my decorative stitches on my machine to machine quilt on my smaller runner and it's not too bad.

Girls Craft Day !!!

Me and my friend from work Kim had a girls craft day...

Dubb was the carpenter

The girl's did all the cute crafty stuff after we stole the craft idea from Marilyn at work.

We started looking for scrapbook paper at Michael's booooring but they had cute embellishments so it wasn't a total wash.

Then we proceeded to Joann's and nothing. Me and Kim were thinking "Man how hard could it be to find scrapbook paper in UTAH of all places".

We hit the jackpot at Ben Franklin's ....

Totally cute stuff I got most of my paper there.

This is my cute results it was so FUN to craft with Miss Kim!
