Disneyland

Hi everyone: I've been gone all week to visit the Happiest Place on Earth. We left on Monday and spent three days at the park and then came home on Friday. The kids had a great time and we went on pretty much every ride, bought lots of goodies and have great memories. The kids had fun because they could ride everything and experience it as older children. The park was busy but we hardly had to wait for any of the rides. The longest we waited was for 25 minutes on a new ride at California Adventure but that was it! The weather was perfect as well! Here are some photos and I hope you enjoy them!

Cathedral Window Pillow

It's been a long couple of weeks with the car being sick, the girls being sick and then my father having a heart attack (he is better now) so naturally any quilting or creative juices that I have had flowing through my body seemed to have dried up. But with everyone on the mend, there is a trickle that started again and last night I finished my cathedral window pillow that I started in Keiko Clark's class. Actually the hardest part was fighting with ruffle. The original fabric I had was too soft so I put some light weight stabilizer in it, however, I think that made it too stiff. Nonetheless, I made it work and voila! it's done. Enjoy!
