New Years 2011 Special quilt!

I know I am late posting but I was having fun with some out of town guest! My hubby's bff since 4th grade and his wife came up with their RV. My MIL came up too. We had a bunch of kids over and had a blast. We cleared out the living room, decorated it and hung a disco ball!
The best part of New Years was when my hubby's friends wife and I were talking and I was showing her my antique quilts. I was telling her that I wasn't lucky enough to have a grandma to have made me one. That all of mine have been bought. I just love them even the tattered ones. Next thing I know she disappeared. She walked back in with a quilt in her hand. It was so pretty! She said her grandmother made it. How awsome! Next thing I know she is telling me it is mine! I was like NO!!! You can't give me your grandmothers quilt! But she kept insisting and said she would give it to my hubby! (he loves quilts too!) I just cried!!! I love her to death!
Here is how I display my quilts. I use an old ladder and hang them on the rungs. The red one is the one she gave me! There is also a pic of me and her! I am on the right and she is on the left.





I hope everyone had a happy and safe new year!!! Thank you so much for following my blog!!! (((HUGZ))) Shawnette :)

Antique Church Duck house!

Good morning! I am off for 3 days!!! I hope to get lots of sewing done! I have been working on my 28 ornies for the Primmart swap. I have 2 more to stitch, then stain! The the fun part... adding the facial features and dressing!
This past weekend I mentioned to my hubby that our lil duckies (13 of them) need some place warm to sleep for the winter. This is what he came up with!!! An antique Church!!! We still have a lil bit left to do to it. I have been looking for some old tin for the roof, and I would like to white wash it as well! I think he did a great job on it! Our lil duckies are going to be so happy!!! :)
Well back to work!!!

HOPE you didn't give up on me!!! New Doll :)

Good morning! It has been a while since my last listing. Hope you didn't give up on me! This is my doll Hope, for breast cancer awareness! I was invited to participate in a doll challenge for Breast Cancer awareness. This is my version of the pattern.
I had a friend pass away recently from breast cancer, so I really wanted to participate for a great cause. All proceeds will be going to BC.
I hope to get more listed soon. I have been working so many hours at work that I just am stretched thin. Good news is I will be getting 3 days off in a row at the end of this week!!! So I will be busting booty to get so new goodies up on ebay!
Thank you for your support and following me!
Hope your having a great week!

6 Month test results!!!

Good evening!!! I just wanted to pop on here and let you know that I had another milestone! My 6 month check up!!! Everything went great! All my tests came back good!!! What a relief!!! I panic every time and worry until I get my results back!
I also got to meet my new Dr. He had a sense of humor! I like that! I still miss Dr. Pro, but at least there is a nice dr. to replace her!
Our ritual for the test results is my hubby always goes. I don't ever want to go by myself for those. And we always get a cappuccino macchiato. Here is a pic of us right before we got the news.



And here is a pic with me and Dr. Younes



So I am good for another 6 months!!! Woo hoo! :)
Thank you for all the prayers and well wishes! :)
