motivation

Well my sister and I are going to post our Christmas projects on our blogs. Hopefully we can get our other sister in on this also.We try to get together on Saturdays and work on things.Last year we where sewing coats. Hers is done and it looks great on her.Mine is still on the to do list.

Today I worked on advent calenders .I am making 3 of the same for each of my kids families.I got the panels from my sister's quilt shop O ' Susannah's Quilts and Gifts. Next week my sister will put the pictures up of the process. Everything is cut out and I have started pressing .My backing fabric is picked out also.

When my kids were younger theirs was wrapped boxes on a cut out tree that was painted green. My husband cut it out of flake board I think. Sadly I no longer have it. As they got older I think I got more enjoyment out of picking out the gifts and filling the boxes. Hopefully my Grand kids will enjoy this as much as I am making it for them.
