Art Quilt Video from the 2012 IQA Houston Quilt Show

Luana Rubin from Equilter.com, the wonderful online fabric site, did a series of Videos on the Houston Quilt Show.  I was thrilled to find that my two leaf quilts were included in her Video on Art Quilts from the show.

Thanksgiving at my Grandaughter Christine's

Since my daughter Barbara and her husband Michael were still in Florida I was invited to spend Thanksgiving at my granddaughter Christine's new home in Williamson.  Almost ready.

 The children had been busy making place cards for everyone.  They call me Cilla which is easier than Priscilla

 After dinner Dominic, Kaelyn and I played Go Fish and then found time for pie
