October 2015 BOM

Playing catch  up here! I am so slow to get things done!! Too much playing games online LOL I am so bad about procrastinating!!

So here is my October BOM only almost 3 months late posting LOL

              This one uses HSTs and Boston  Blocks. you can find my Boston Block directions above in the tabs.

      You will need a 3 1/2" template to make this block 12 1/2" in size. if you dont' have a template I will send you one for free. Just send me your postal address to patchesbyr@yahoo.com and let me know the size of template you are asking for.

 You can make it any size  you like. Just use a diff size template to change the size of the quilt block.   Thanks!! Rhonda

   



Merry Christmas 2015

well I did get all of my Christmas decorations out and I reorganized all my bins. I sorted out all the stuff I"ve hung on to for years but don't really care about. I freed up 6 bins!! Yeah me! but then I filled those bins up with my decorating items like my Chicken collection and my mini sewing machine collection etc.  I freed up some storage room in my closet where I keep my Christmas bins. now I had room to store some of my collections that I had no where to put. So I'm feeling good that I accomplished that task!

We had a great time at my son's on Christmas eve day. We had all of my family in one place this year. It's the only time of the year we can get everyone together. There are 26 of us! Our kids and grandkids and great grandkids and grand inlaws. Then we also have our daughter in law's dad and his girlfriend and my daughter's mother in law also. So we had a total of 29 people in one house LOL  My son has a good size house so we all had a great time. Lots of food and good conversation. We have several little ones and that makes it fun also. Sky is 1 Renny is 4 Colton is 5 Adrianna is 6 Jayden is 7 Alisha is 10 our twin grandsons are 12 Granddaughter Rachel is 13 Zach is 15 Joey 17  Jake is 17 and then the older 3 grandkids are in their 20s and two are married. so I am always amazed at how blessed this only child is with all this family!

 Picture of our whole family. First time we've ever had a pic with all of us!

   Unfortunately Joey is only half there on the left side and Renny is only half there on the right side.

Well that's my family!  Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!!

Wishing you a Happy New Year with lots of laughter and sunshine!!  Rhonda
