To the land of marigolds



Finally, the bags are packed and I am ready to take off and visit my mom. 

There will be no stringing of marigolds like you see here. 

This was back in 1987 just a day before my brother got married. 

 My baby sister and I sat with our brother in law and strung away the marigolds all day long. 

Don't we all look Vintage?  

There's been no sewing in last few weeks but I thought I would leave you with a picture of quilts from last couple of years.



Merry Christmas 
and 
  Happy New year!
