My very first....


ever, ever, ever quilt top. I am making this for Katie. It is called a disappearing nine patch and if you ever thought about making a quilt and you were just to scared.....This my friends, is the quilt for you!! It looks like so much more work than it is! I am so exited to have done this.....I need to double the size of it, and am having a hard time talking myself into starting that....but I love it. I love the fabric and the design....I can't wait to finish it with the borders I have planned and show it to you done!! Yeah for learning new things!! (you all know that I am in NO way a quilter.....never wanted to be. but I admit it now that I do enjoy it.....It really is fun to learn something new. but please, don't spread it around. I talked a lot of crap on those "other" people that sew!) Hahahahah! *hanging my head in shame*

The last big snow...





Seriously....snow in April!! No way, I didn't believe the weatherman...it had been in the 70's earlier in the week. There was NO way it would really snow!!

Yup, it did. And the kids had one last snowman making day in it! Gotta love the Missouri weather!
