HAPPY NEW YEAR to all my blog-friends .......

Still hours left of 2011. Woke up to the most super weather this morning, cold (-9 degrees),sunny with pale blue winter sky. Yes,a landscape photo would have been in place,but another time.







Off for some shopping now,
food only ...LOL...
to make a nice meal later on for
DH and myself. Well,not all what
this photo shows,but "goodies"
to enjoy a New Years Meal for the
two of us on the last day of
2011:-)
I have not
forgotten my OPAMs this very
month either;so here they are:

This is Lynette Anderson`s Christmas Snowball Fun.I finished it and delivered it,to a friend of a friend on December 4. Not quite the snowballs Lynette have in her quilt,but this is how Jeanette wanted it. AND please check Di on her post Dec.20.She also has a heart version of the same pattern;two of a kind we are just by coincidence!

Here`s the table runner I made for my SSCS friend Illene in Australia;not posted before as it was not to be revealed till after Christmas Day:-)

Two of a kind here as well .... the table clothes ... I mean. One was made??where is the label on the backing?? about 8 years ago for my DD. The other one cut same time for my DS,who did not want any quilting in his apartment at all! He has now bought a new apartment with his lovely girlfriend. She likes a bit of quilting,so of course I finished it this Christmas (their very first one living together). Great,great. So here you see my DD - Siri,36 - and DIL(probably)Mona,26.

I will be thinking of you all,close and far. Please have a joyful as well as a peaceful evening. Wishing you A HAPPY NEW YEAR 2012 with lots of quilting makings in the coming year.





Take Care till next time;let my
little stitchery angel watch
over you:o)

Love your Scandinavian version! Very pretty.
And how great, that your son will now also have a quilt made by you in his home.
Gelukkig Nieuwjaar, Grethe and look forward to see your creations next year!
