FUN & DONE ! Quilting. Mary is doing this easy quilt-as-you-so technique from Prairie Sky Quilting. It is hard to see but there are little pins on the edge for the next step, it measures 16x16 and she is going to make a runner. you can do scrappy, crib , lap, twin, .....QUILTING IN PROGRESS! I do hope she plans on teaching us how to do it.

No diamonds, No Y seams. The pattern shows different sizes from lap to king. We have a couple kits left. It is truely fun to make and Not hard. Call for details.

A new pattern by PrairieSky quilting. I love this pattern but I need help. It is a quilt as you go. I never was very good at these.

I need to thank my Sis... Just don't know what I would do with out them--I have 2 sisters. Today, Darcie took time out of her classes to help me get my Blog up. For weeks I could not get this to work. A month ago to be exact because this is how old my picture is of our darling little Rayna. Thank you Darcie!. 2 weeks ago my other sister Shelly helped me vend at the Minot Quilt show. We also have great fun at that show.

Thanks to my teacher Darcie.

Victory Bag

Meet my SWEET granddaughter. She is a month old on this pic. She was born on Dec. 8th.
She and her mom , (Our daughter ) got to stay with us this past week. I even had her here at the shop trying to teach her already to become a quilter. Her name is Rayna Joy.

Some of you may have gotten to know her. She loved to quilt. She taught some classes here at Comforts of Home.
She was the first one to have a quilt shop in down town Jamestown ND in 1991. Some od you should remember her. Many of us learned alot of quilt talk from her. I have some fabric in my stash left from her shop. She always said it won't get spoiled. Correen lost the battle with cancer on Jan 7th., and she was sewing just days before that. Correen , always my quilting friend, I will miss you.
COH is behind in many things but we do have some classes ready to start taking Jan 26. which is the beginner class. It is the next 3 wednesdays. Call for more info.

I'm a pround new GranMa.

Arrived in time for Christmas Joy. My 1st grandbaby. Her name is Rayna Joy. She was born in December 8th at 3;39 am . I got to be in the delivery room. OMG. It was wonderful. My daughter did great. What a bundle of Joy in time for Christmas. She weighed 7# 9oz. This was taken about 10 hours after being born. She looks like daddy. Have a great day. I hope to see more of her next week and will give you an update then.

Merry Christmas
