i am up when it is still night again.  i don't mind it really.  i love the silence and the sense that i have a couple of hours to think before the real business of the day begins.  edgar seems to need me most often at around 4.30 a.m. and once i'm up, i might as well make it my starting off point.  today my mind is full of christmas things.  thinking i might suggest that we host instead of my parents this year, because it will be easier on edgar, and ultimately on us. and there are presents to get wrapped.  and still plenty of gifts to decide on.  although we are pulling back and having a christmas that is over the top in love, but with just a sprinkling of presents. books, and locally made gifts are what we're giving this year.  an anxiety free holiday is the goal.  so far, it's a success.  
the studio is still abuzz.  but there is alot going on, so i'm not there exclusively.  however, if you were hoping to find a gift among our rooms, please contact me.....when i'm not there, i'm usually just next door and ready to run across the yard and help find the perfect gift.  there are still several crib and lap sized quilts and a few full/queen sized ones as well. as well as wonderful hand made jewelry and vintage books.  and stocking stuffers too.

  2. i'm still loving my lap farm-quilt, i use it absolutely everyday. One day i will bring my friend Sue to see your shop, she will love it too, she is a big quilt fan, and she loved my new one when i showed it to her. It probably wont be until the new year sometime. Have a wonderful holiday.

  3. I was just thinking about Edgar last night and hoping he was getting along okay after his surgery. How thoughtful of you to host Christmas this year, I'm sure your parents will enjoy that. You sound like you have everything in order and ready for a pressure free Christmas.

    I'm sending you warm wishes for a very Merry Christmas and a grand New Year. :)
