The décor is all about my crafts ; needlepoint, paper toles and tole paintings, and of course a quilt..... Quilt books and the stress balls.... oh! and yes "C H O C O L A T E "

Now for my quilting.. I finished the "Better by the Dozen" in the Kansas Winter... Agnes did her magic with her hand quilting.
I have been busy putting all the final touches on the quilt guild's first meeting on wednesday. The name is "La Guild Acadienne de Clare" and the pre-registration is amazing... As they say it is the talk of the town and people are showing a lot of interests..... so to show my appreciation I made a "valentine" table topper for a door prize at the first meeting...
made in the Blessings......
So everyone stay warm... here the fire is burning brightly in the fireplace and it is very cozy in spite of the -27º with the wind chill..
Try to stay warm Joan, and good luck with quilt guild.

Kudos to you Joan. Your guild sounds like something all of us would want to join. Are you taking long distance members?? Joking!!!

Lovely family! It's great that you all have the opportunity to get together to celebrate special occasions. I love all your quilts, as usual, but my favorite is the one in your header. Beautiful! Stay warm and cozy. I just took a quilt to my office to cozy it up a little.
