Are you ready for Christmas yet? Not me! The house is decorated, but I still have about a third of my shopping left to do. Presents are being wrapped slowly but surely. My daughter, Nicki, has begun making Christmas cookies. I used to love to bake them, usually making 15-17 different kinds of cookies, but I no longer have the time, and she wanted to carry on the tradition. Win, win!! It's been very warm here in Chicagoland. Last week, on December 4th, it was 70 degrees! It's nice, but my body clock says it's time for chilly, snowy weather. Christmas just isn't the same without snow! I hope your holiday preparations are coming along nicely for you.
Let's take a peek at the last of the Forget Me Not quilts.......

My heartfelt thanks to everyone who participated in my Forget Me Not Sew~Along! Isn't it much more fun to sew with friends?!! I hope you enjoyed all the quilts as much as I did. My next sew along begins in just a few short weeks. And.....I'm already planning one for spring time that will be a bit different from the others! More fun in the works!!

I know many of you are addressing your Christmas cards right about now and I wanted to encourage you to remember our "Wounded Warriors" recovering from their injuries in the VA hospital. I'm sure they would love to receive a card of well wishes and holiday greetings from your family. If you'd like to, you can send a card here:
