Vampire Nutcracker

12/27/09 – 1/2/10

My Christmas gift to myself, a quilt kit for a quilt called Winter Trees. The way they packaged it up is so pretty, I’m hesitating to break into it.

And a Christmas card from my friend, Kim, came with this little note on the envelope. She knows me too well.

And I spent some time quilting the baby quilt, and finally got to sewing on the binding.

I love peaceful nights where I can sit in the dark and just enjoy the lights on the tree.

And on New Year’s Day, I always like to start a new project and watch the Rose Parade.
