Family Picture

It was a gorgeous Grad Day in Ohio.....

It is a sweet memory now......Quilted.....Karen

Memory Lane along with New Horizons

My sweet grandgals gave our hearts an extra hug yesterday when they were thrilled with the quilts I made them for graduation and then the special Rose Garden.  The princess is sleeping in this morning, so I am still waiting for the picture of her Rose Garden on her bed.  She was happy...grinned from ear to ear....yes, she is a petite gal!!  beautiful inside and out.
Our Oldest grandchild graduated last night from the same High School her Mom did just 20 years ago!  She has her sights set for Intell in the Air Force....she loves to study!.....we just enjoyed her great and happy yesterday..... all the families on both sides together back in the area of Ohio where we raised our sweet 3 kids ourselves!  eons ago :)

Irish Twin #2 Happy 2013 Grad!

She loves it!

The Rose Garden Princess!

The sweetest Thing I Know of......Love!

The 2nd born grandchild, an Irish twin to the first; born 12 months apart in the same year....was thrilled with her quilt....she said. I LOVE IT!!.....and thank you for all your work.....she kept going over to it to look at the photos ..claiming it as her own!.....that was reward for our hearts!!  She is going into Public Health study....  cool!! ....
Our Rose Garden Princess was very pleased with her Roses.....I was so glad! it turned out like she wanted it too....she is going to be 13 the last day of June....Our Millennium Grandbaby....
We enjoyed taking pictures all day long.  Our ONLY grandson is adored by the 3 youngest grandgals...and they run into his arms when we get together....we don't get to do that, usually more than 2 times a year.  I think this year it will be more....and that is good!!....very good!!......
Please enjoy the pictures....I totally was tinkled pink to make these quilts for our precious Grandgals....our treasures!!.....    I am blessed!!  Quilted  Up into their hearts!!......  Karen

Hearts Going Out

Prayers....

Our hearts and many prayers are with the victims of the recent tornado activity in Texas and Oklahoma. It is difficult to comprehend how they are coping today; especially for those who lost children and loved ones and those that are still missing; and then the cleanup and rebuilding...
  Our prayers are that God will be with them and hold them up....and lead those into His arms that do not know Him.....many, many prayers... God Bless,  Karen

Free Motion Classes

Joy!!

Just in for a few moments this morning....I completed binding my three grandgal quilts and now I want to make some pillows to take along with me on Saturday....plus we have some outside work (ground cover invasion) to take care of!!....so please, if you are not a member The Quilt Show, with Alex Anderson and Ricky Tims, or if you aren't a member of Craftsy, Consider both!  :):)
 Here is a connection to the Obsessive Quilter , I  just found Ann Peterson.....you can watch her show at The Quilt Show, she was featured on May 11th and also on Cratsy.  I feel so much attraction to her web page name!!...  but back to classes, once you buy the classes, they are permanent for you,  I watch for sales on the classes; recently there was 50% off, sometimes there are even free classes.....and that is sweet!!  With flexibility, I am learning more about modern style so I can offer it in my shop....there are no Quilting Police!!  Have a great week and if you are in the storm ridden areas, know our prayers are with you.  God Bless and Quilted Joy to you!  Karen

Oh, you ask, the picture?.....my hub has a  Digital Woodcarver and I think that would be a sweet wooden plaque to be done  for our cabin wall, don't you?
