Good Evening~ From Mama Sue~

Watching the World Series tonight and working on my daughter's Christmas present. Katie is the one who lives in Hawaii. I am making her a "throw" for the back of her couch.
It is being done in grays and yellows and white. I will add a picture when I get it all done.

I finally finished my son Kevin's Christmas present. It is called "Moose on the Loose". I really like how it turned out.  I hope he likes it!



 I am still only quilting with the technique called "stitch in the ditch" , which is when you sew your quilting stitches in the seams where you've pieced your fabrics together.  One of these days I will get up enough courage to do some FMQ.   (Free motion quilting) I stare at the beautiful patriotic quilted wall-hanging that Carol made me back in 2010 for my military son David ..(she is the mother of "Bojangles"..... She did some absolutely gorgeous FMQ on there and what a lovely, thoughtful gift that was!

On a personal note, Mike is doing better.  He is now walking with only a cane, and not using his walker.  He gets better everyday. Where his leg was amputated has healed beautifully!   God has been very good to us.

Our daughter, Jeffie, (Jennifer) is due to deliver her firstborn son, in about 4 more weeks.  Please keep her and her husband and baby Wyatt in your prayers that all goes well. Thank you!

If you are keeping up on the blog, please let me know.  MrsSusanMartin@aol.com

God bless you all tonight and every night!

Love,

Mama Sue
