Just a few quick pics today

Things are busy so I just wanted to share these few pics quick with you today. I dug out the pictures of my Halloween Gingerbread House and scanned them! I forgot how cute they were - even though I"m not a Halloween fan! And I just had to share that last picture with Holly! That was the year she was in Kindergarten and she is now a Junior in college and 20! Oh my gosh, how time flies!


The bottom picture is the quilt I"m going to make at camp with Laura and Linda! I can't wait to go. Everything is all cut and ready to sew! It is from the book More! Laps from Fats

Have a great time at your qiultcamp. I sure did on mine a few weeks ago. The quilt you are going to do is beautiful. I love stars. The one I started on my quiltcamp is not yet finished. In fact I have not done anything on it since my camp.

Have a nice weekend

Hey, good for you for taking photos before the digital era! I have my hospital photo and then my 1st grade photo - ummm, what happened? A few sisters have a few photos here and there, but nothing like what us Digital crazy Momma's take today! Those are excellent photos and what fun memories!

I am looking forward to seeing your version of the quilt you are going to be doing.

Cheers!

What a sweet photo of your daughter and the Halloween house. I can see why the teachers clamored to have your children in their class *s*
Have fun at your quilt camp. Can't wait to see your project -- it looks like a fun pattern.

Ohhhh, that star quilt is quite pretty, can't wait to see yours. I can't resist a star quilt and I love scrappy quilts, so that's a winner with me....

I wonder who had the most fun making those houses? The kids? Or you...just knowing how much fun the kids were going to have?!

Those must be just terrific memories! Wouldn't it be a hoot to make a little Halloween house and send it to each of your college kids...with a picture of the *good ole days* enclosed!

You're going to have such a fun time getting together once again! Can't wait to hear about it. The quilt pictured is pretty sweet! Love the fabs!

neat Halloween house, you know how I love Halloween!

And the quilt you are going to work on at camp is soooo neat. I can't wait to go, seems like forever away. I got my plane ticket for Florida. Nothing like planning the next event before doing this one.

Your houses are wonderful Dawn! I've never heard of anyone else making Halloween gingerbread houses - what a marvelous idea. Much more fun that Christmas ones I think. What a cute picture of Holly!
