Now that’s a fun gingerbread house, big enough for the child in all of us!

Seasons Change
You can see the seasons change here in central Texas, if you keep your eyes open. I found this outside of BookPeople.
Child and Mustang
This is at Williams Square in Irving, Texas, where the beautiful Mustangs of Las Colinas can be found, always running, always frolicking.

Here is my latest quilt, for my sister-in-law. USPS will deliver it today or tomorrow to Texarkana, Texas.
This pattern is the Disappearing Nine Patch. There are about a gazillion ways to arrange the blocks. This quilt top is made with three Asian fabrics (which I adore).
A lot of people quilt their own quilts; I do not. I quilt “by checkbook” and have a professional take care of that part. Thanks to Mary Golden in Cedar Creek, Texas, for her expertise and her longarm quilting machine.

Keeping It Simple
I discovered that I actually can make large quilts, as long as I use simple patterns. These are the quilts I made for my uncles. I made the quilt tops and backings and had them professionally quilted. I’m not into struggling to quilt large projects on my home sewing machine.
A big Thank You goes to the USPS: I mailed these quilts from Buda, Texas on a Saturday and both were delivered to my uncles (one in Colorado, one in east Texas) the following Monday.
