We are at the end of a major snowstorm,
30 inches of snow !
It is breathtakingly beautiful outside.
My daughter came over with her husband and five children, plus three children of another daughter.
Naturally I immediately started doing all kinds of crafting activities with them!
(while my poor daughter went and made pizza for everyone, the girls made pom-poms, and they all watched Home Alone 2 , their all-time favorite movie.One of the girls likes jewelry and so she made the bead and pearl bracelet. Before they showed up, I decided that my quilt had to be pinned together. I started doing that last week, but the backing was a total mess, all wrinkled and bunched up. This time my dear husband helped me .
We lay the backing over the dining room table, then the batting, then the quilt on top, and slowly, working together from the center out, pinned all three layers together. I was so excited!
It actually came out nice and neat.
Hang on for when I finally start quilting it!
