Laurel09 said...

I have a 2 year-old (almost 3 now), so I'm enjoying the process of deciding what our Christmas traditions with her will be and making them happen! This will also be her first year "getting" the idea of Santa, so that's going to be fun as well.

Honestly I'm looking forward to it all being over.

barb said...

my family has all passed away. i hand piece and hand quilt and donate all my quilts. this gives me much pleasure, i love to pay it forward, but my income is less than four hundrd dollars monthly so buying fabric is not an option. a few bloggers and given me fabric and i am forever grateful for that. but i am almost out of fabric. i will be either at the salvation army soup kitchen or at my church serving christmas dinner to those who have no where to go. thank you for a very beautiful prize. babscorbitt@gmail.com
