Quilted banner at St. Joseph's Church







Grandchildren




We stopped for a quick visit with the grands on the way home. Just enough time for a violin concert, some hugs, and lots of smiles.

APQC Red Ribbon Dinner and Great Art Auction




Here I am with my brother and the 3 items I donated to the auction. We had a smashing good time. This is the second year they have asked me to make them a quilt out of cast off blue jeans that they collect and send me. The red ribbon wall quilt is constructed from neckties and the messenger bag/purse is constructed of more men's neckties. great recycling fun in this "Green" economy.

A Choir of Angels for the NICU


Nine little angels are ready for delivery to NICUs in West Virginia and Tennessee. I've been crocheting these when I watch TV. They can be used as fetal demise wraps or to cradle and cuddle any tiny preemie needing an angel close by. Here is a link to the pattern I used http://www.bevscountrycottage.com/aunt-bs-cr-angel-wrap.html Thanks, Aunt B, for the great pattern.
There is a new knitted pattern at http://www.bevscountrycottage.com/aunt-bs-knit-angel-wrap.html that I will have to try next.
