Fellowship and winter projects

Two days ago mom, Syd, and I went to our friends house for fellowship. We had such a great time! Our day of fellowship included trying on a new dress :D, playing with the Nerf guns in the upstairs hallway (ABSOLUTE FUN), playing hide and seek on their 5 acres of land, and much, much more absolute happiness! After enough playing with the Nerf guns, my 11 year old friend taught me how to patchwork quilt. I was very nervous at first, but after I got the hang of using a sewing machine (I've only used one ONCE in my life), I really enjoyed it! We all had a great time hanging out with one another, and trying out German Chocolate :D

So yesterday, I decided to make my mom a patchwork quilt throw. But instead of using a sewing machine I taught myself how to sew by hand. And to be honest with you, it is more fun to sew by hand than to sew with a machine (even though it's a lot of work). I have already started working on the quilt, but not enough to post any pictures yet! I'll post pictures when it's big enough to take pictures of :D

*Hope you all have a GREAT weekend*

Merry CHRISTmas!!!!

My beautiful new apron

Today I received my beautifully sewn apron from Miss Toria, my partner in the apron swap hosted by Emily over at Pratically Pink. I also received a recipe for No Bake drop cookies, I'll have to share the recipe once I make them (in my new apron:D) Any way just thought I'd share a picture of me wearing it.Isn't beautiful?

Thank you so much Miss Toria for the beautiful apron, I absolutely LOVE IT!!! Also thank you for the recipe!!

Hugs from Texas,

Alisha
