First (finished) Quilt of 2010 and Christmas

I have tons that are partially done but this is the first completely done one.  It’s off to sunny CA now.

Christmas was a lot of fun.  Liam was in choo-choo land the entire time.  This picture captures what Liam has looked like since about 9am December 25th.  Every day this is what he looks like.

Maeve was in pink land.  And quite happy about it.

I was happy that for the first time ever I parallel parked.  Yes, really, I’ve never done it before.  Between the suburban wasteland I learned to drive in and the one I currently live in it has never been a necessary skill.  Sean had the kids clap for me.  Yes, a big day (sigh).

Off to finish another quilt (still working on the new pattern covers.  They are totally cool… to me at least!)

    Well, how can you blame Liam!? That’s like the coolest Thomas track set ever! With Cranky the Crane even?!??
    Coming to CA anywhere near me?

      No Cranky the Crane. We’re trying to avoid the Thomas stuff (which is really hard!). He has a couple pieces but none of the Thomas trains. Other end of CA. ;)

      Quilt is a silk/cotton blend (RK Radiance which is my new favoritest fabric ever).

      Three more covers to sew!

    LOVE the quilting on that circle quilt! Makes me glad I haven’t quilted mine yet. (Yes, I am going to copy …) Absolutely beautiful. Can’t wait to see your new patterns. You are very inspirational – thanks!
