Giving...

...the same gift two years in a row isn't tacky if the second time it's finished, right?

Last year I started this:


I finished piecing the tops before December 2009, but don't remember if I wrapped them up for Christmas despite the fact that they weren't quilted...

This year, well, today, I finished them.  I'm talking about machine quilting two twin-sized quilts and binding them in 8 hours.  Shoot me now!


I only ate half a bag of Hershey Hugs and half a bag of Cadbury mini eggs while doing it.


Now I only have two stockings and pillows to do for they boys.  I love sewing, but man, my back is so tired of it right now!

Way To GO! I am so dang proud of you! What an accomplished sister I have :) You have taught me all that I know... now I just need to be taught how to quilt with my machine... Let's do something over Christmas and I can learn to use my stitching regulator!!! & Bring anything you would like embroidered! :) I can handle that kind of stuff~
Love you TONS!
