    Welcome to the forum Caroline. Ahh, I can see that you are a very talented quilter! All of your items look so nice. So do you do machine quilting or hand quilting? Have you been quilting a long time? My friend tried to teach me, and I just don't have the patience, I actually completed a birdhouse wall hanging though. I was sooooo proud of myself.;o) Luvs

    Caroline - Welcome to the forum - you work is lovely. I need to get my sewing machine back out again and do some more Christmas stuff. I got burned out sewing for our doll clothes business that I just put the machine away and haven't gotten it back out in 4 years. I do miss that creative aspect. I love your bells - very pretty .....

    Caroline - Welcome to the forum. You've done some very nice work and I especially like the little PINK scotties !!! Everyone seems to make them in darker colors and plaids for little boys, but hardly anyone does the scotty quilts for little girls .. love it !!

    Caroline..Welcome. What nice things you 'brought' with you here!! lol. I just love your bells, stockings, wall hangings and throws...just about everything. I agree, those scotties are adorable in pink. WOW!! you are one busy GMa.
    I'm sure they will treasure all of it.
    I can appreciate all the hard work that went into them. I used to do quilting, some pillows, Christmas stockings, and a small quilt yrs ago.
    I was on a House Tour last yr, around Christmas, and in one of the homes, the woman had a 'Quilting Machine' in her Hobby Room!! It was computerized, and she had about a dozen quilts hanging on the wall. She said she didn't make them to sell, and that it was just for fun. I thought that was a VERY expensive hobby!! I'm sure the machine cost pleanty. Well, Thank you for sharing your wonderful talents with us. Hope to see more of you here.

    Welcome Caroline! What some beauties you've brought to show us! My favorite is the baby's room with the pink tree and scotties.

    Merry Christmas.

    Hi and Welcome. Your quilting is really wonderful, I especially love the bells. I never had the patience for sewing, tho now regret not learning as my grandmother sewed so much, and quilted. My loss for sure.
    So were you born in 1947? That was a good year, LOL, I was born then. And I see you are semi-house-bound with health issues. Yep, am there 'n doing that too.

    Hope you join us more.
    hugs and Happy Holidays,
    Karen
