Pillow Cases

Found this picture in the camera.  Didnt know I had it.  I made 38 Pillow cases between Christmas and New Years.  This is them all cut out and ready to sew.  25 of them went to Greater Columbia Quilters for charity.  The rest are here to send to family in Va.  I really need to mail them.

Got to take Patch to the vet. He has a bad eye infection.

Happy Quilting,

Pillowcases for Sandy Hook Elementary

There is a quilt shop collecting pillowcases for the Sandy Hook Elementary kids that survived the shooting.  I was making some for Christmas presents, so I just made 5 more.  Mailed today, they want to distribute the on 12-27.  It is the least I could do, beside prayer.

Merry Christmas, Vicki

Found Puppy

Isnt he cute??  Wayne went to go hunting about 2 weeks ago.  He left the house about 3pm.  I didnt expect to see him until dark:30.  He was back in about 10 min. with a little black wiggly puppy.  Someone had dumped this puppy off at the entrance to our subdivision.  He was so cute and playful.  Probably about 6 or 7 weeks old.  Well our dogs Old Scruffy (Patch) and Ranger didnt like him at all.  They growled at him.  Ranger snapped at him several times and then other times he was scared of the puppy. We kept him on the back porch and yard most of the time.  We have a doggie door for our dogs. To beat all, our dogs would not go out the doggie door with the puppy out there.  So, I had to take them out the front. We tried to find out if he belonged to anyone around here and he didnt belong to anyone.  After 5 days of trying to find him a home, we finally did.  He is such a happy puppy, I wish we could have kept him.

Speaking of dog things, Patch fell asleep under the Christmas tree a few nites ago.  First time this has happened.  He will be 13 years old on Jan 2.  He has diabetes, cataracts and cant here very well.  He still gets around good as long as we dont move the furniture around.  He still loves to run outside, but it is hard for him to play because he cant see the ball anymore.

Now for me, I cut out a bunch of pillow cases today, now to sew them up.  Some are Christmas presants, and some are for the kids at Sandy Hook Elem. School.  I need to get those in the mail tomorrow, so I better get sewing.

Happy Quilting and a Merry Christmas, Vicki
