I totally "blew" it....

but I'm going to give it another go! Finally I can access blogger, altho not every day, and I got a picture to upload!
I did follow through with my intention of 01/04 and choose the HA quilt top and the Happy Frogs as my "jumping in again" projects. And I even got backings picked out and partly made...and then I wandered off.
None of many Christmas pillowcases got made for the grandkids. I had other stuff for them, as well, but do like to give them a new flannel pillowcase every year or so. This was an "or so" year, since I missed last year. And I've got a whole new stack of Christmas flannels in fun kid prints to have used. So I'm going to make them anyway and see if I can get them shipped out before the cold and snow vanishes. Wish me luck, or join me...I'd love the company *VBS*

Good luck with your pillowcases. Still plenty of chilly weather left for most pele.

Love flannel pillowcases. We use flannel sheets all year round, so anytime we have new flannel pillowcases is okay for us. Your grandkids probably have the same thoughts on the matter.

Glad to see you have been wandering through fabric and thread even if you haven't shared in this here blogland as much :) I think flannel pillowcases are a great idea!

There you are, woman---have been thinking of you and Ms. Ebby---hoping that you are both safe and warm. I'm so glad to see you. Don't stay gone so long and worry us so. :D Hugs to both of you.

Finally catching up on my blogging. I've got lots of UFOs lurking around here also, all kinds actually! Looks like you're off to a good start! I've had blogger issues, too, and it's frustrating, isn't it?
