Three Sisters of Ruby's

Well, our quilt retreat is over. It was absolutely wonderful and I am so sad to be back at work. I have to remind myself that working helps me to afford these little get-aways so I guess it's worth it in the long run. I loved spending time with my Sista's. This is the first year that all three of us were there together. We were able to laugh and shop and eat and sleep and laugh and ..... it was just great. Sharleen took so many classes that we didn't see her much except at meals and at night. With all the projects she started, she is going to be a very busy lady. Lynette took the prize for bringing home the most fat quarters and patterns. But what's another fat quarter - RIGHT! I'm sure she needs more Stash! And me, I started two new projects and worked on one that I had begun a couple of years ago. Only time will tell if any of these get done.

Bunco

I just finished cleaning up after Bunco. It sure was fun to see the "ladies". We were trying to figure out how many years we have been playing now and to the best of our knowleged figure it has to be around 15 years now. We have seen some ladies come and some ladies go. Some have had babies, some have gotten divorced or married or passed away. Now most of them have sons on missions and daughters married. It's kinda nice to sit down and chat with friends that you have that kind of history with. Where it use to be 12 of us, it is now just 8. Six of us are were there at the very begining of this group. This is one of the best things about getting older.

Lone Star

Coming up in February I will get to go to the Ruby's Inn Quilt Retreat at Bryce Canyon. This will be my 5th year attending this retreat. I absolutely LOVE going. This year I have only signed up to make two quilts and am hoping to work on some from previous years that I have not completed.

This is a picture of my Lone Star quilt that I made last year. The class was taught by Linda Walters and I love the fabrics in it.

Valentine Table Runners

These are the table runners that I made for my Bunco group. I thought they turned out pretty cute. I also did a wall hanging from a cheater panel and another table topper from reds and white that I had in my stash.

I hope that the winners like them 'cause I think they are pretty cute.

January

Well, it's almost time to put away the snowmen and get out the Valentine stuff. I have always LOVED Valentine's Day. I think it all started when I was little and my mom sent me around the neighborhood delivering invitations to my birthday party that were done on lace paper doilies. I had to be around five years old because we lived in the little white house on 200 West in Lehi.

I love Valentine Sugar cookies. They're pretty good all year round, but it wouldn't be Valentine's Day without some sugar cookies. And ya know, the chocolate that abounds at this time of year isn't too bad either.

The combination of the cookies, the chocolate and my birthday must make it why Valentine's Day is just sooooo wonderful.

I'm pretty excited because this month is my month to host Bunco at my house. I am excited to show all my "Girlie" friends my newly remodeled basement as well as all my Valentine stuff. I have been busy making the prizes that I hope the ladies will like. Check out the pictures.
