A little of this a little of that

We have a rule in our family. No buying anything in the couple of months before Christmas. Well it seems my husband doesn't quite like this rule because he came home with this little four wheeler for the kids. With two more on order! Now the kids can all go four wheeling with him. I am thinking this would have made great Christmas gifts. Heck we wouldn't have had to buy them anything else if they had these under the tree. Hmmm I better have one good gift under the tree for me for me.

My dear, dear friend Neen came over the other night to finish up her guild quilt. Here she is hard at work on the "Queen Neener" Yup I named it after her. She wouldn't let me get to close with the camera cause she didn't do her hair. Look at the concentration in her eyes. That quilt is going to keep some cancer patients nice and warm during their chemo appointments.

And this is what I got accomplished while she was here. It doesn't look like much but trust me that is good for me. On the right is a scrappy binding. this is my new passions to use the left over fabric for scrappy bindings instead of finding one big piece of fabric. It is now attached to the quilt and ready to stitch down which I will do in Nashua. The rest is the start of the Challenge quilt(see Teri I started it)

I have to get packed to go to Nashua tomorrow but first I get to go over to Neens house tonight for dinner then I get to go to her guild meeting. I am very VERY excited. I have never been to a guild meeting before! I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas!

But (sigh) before I get to do any of this I need to pick the kids up early for school to take them to get our flu shots. I am glad my kids are good at getting these. They actually reminded me that they needed them.

Have a great weekend!
