Weekend Almost Over Already??

I soon have to leave to pick up Punkie from my mom's house. She spent the night so that I can have yesterday to myself. But before I go, I thought I would do some updating here.

Friday, my BFF, her husband and baby girl, along with my cousin and baby boy (her husband was working and so was mine) came over for lunch. We had a very nice visit. Amelia enjoyed the babies and showing off for our company. She was a very good girl and hostess. As soon as it got dark out, she told everyone to leave. LOL. Here's a picture of all our babies together.

Saturday, Barb and I did our girl thing and went shopping and did lunch. I started my Christmas shopping so I'm happy there. Now I just have to find time to get some stuff wrapped. I have no idea what to get my husband. He's last on my list unless he starts giving me some ideas. I also went to check out a quilt/fabric shop that I've never been to. Not impressed so I probably won't go back. But we had a great time together and I miss her already. They aren't hitting the road for TX until Turkey Day but their schedule is so jammed with family visits that we said our goodbyes last night. I hope to be able to get out to TX in July for Julia's first birthday.

I promised a picture of Punkie's Butterfly Fling wall hanging that I got all pieced together.

It's needs to be quilted. I will work on that soon. I have a few others things that I really want to get done for Christmas so if I have time, this will get quilted for Christmas. If not, I can work on it during my Christmas break. I borrowed the layout idea from Deb (I looked and looked for the posting on her blog with the picture but I can't find it. I think I saw it on Sharon's blog). I hope she doesn't mind! I loved how her ME table topper looked so...

I also made Punkie two new pillowcases. I LOVE the white fabric. I think it's from the Lakehouse line; I'm not sure. But it reminds me of candy buttons and I just love it. I love it so much, I'm going back to the fabric store next weekend to get 2 more yards so that I can make more pillowcases for myself and have some for my stash. The green fabric is from the Smores christmas line. I love that one too. I think my pillowcases will be pink and white instead of the green. I like how I did a reverse image on the pillowcases. One has a green cuff, the other the white. Fun for a little girl. No one said bedding has to be serious! Not even for adults!

One last thing before I have to hit the road... this morning, I pieced together a doll quilt for Punkie for Christmas. I used the "Sugar and Spice" fat quarters I had in my stash and an another fabric but I think of what the name of it is. I need to piece together all my rows and then I can quilt it. I'm planning on making a matching pillow for it too. I can't wait to see it finished!

Enjoy your day!
