merry christmas!

well almost, but i'm hopping on the blue sled to be with family so will post my wish today....spent a bit of time on a festive UFO that is progressing at a snail's pace, a very old snail...LOL!

my facebook group 'celebrate hand quilting' showed off their red and green quilts this week so was inspired to spend some time on this.  it'll be 4 blocks altogether with a swag border of some sort...no deadline...maybe next christmas?  

so disheartening to wake every morning to news of shootings and murders overnight.  a young police woman was ambushed and shot a week ago and just yesterday taken off life support....imagine if the only gift you can give is to unplug a loved one....christmas is forever changed for her family.  makes me even more thankful for the cherished blessings in my life..."blessed are those who mourn for they will be comforted" matthew 5:4....may all my readers find joy in the season and hope for the new year to come.....
