Two quilts done - Added picture

Front of Ethan's quilt

Quilt with the back showing
I've managed to get 2 quilts completely done.  YEAH!!!  The first one is a Christmas gift for Ethan.  It is a 10 minute quilt block quilt.  These are so easy and fast to do.  There isn't any batting in this quilt because I used flannel for the front and back.  It will be plenty warm enough.
This one is the Scrappy Pineapple quilt.  I forgot to take a picture of it before I put it in the washer/dryer.  Maybe in a couple of days I will take a picture of the completed quilt.  
All done washing and drying.  Here is the finished quilt.

Pineapple Blossom all done


Now I need to cut the little girl's quilt for Christmas.  Before I do that, I have to decide what I want the quilt to look like.  This one will also be flannel just like her little brothers.
No much going on around here except my chimney is getting fixed.  When we had the bad hail storm back in 2007 the cap was bent up and almost off.  That was suppose to have been fixed.  When we had rain the other day, we could hear the drip, drip, drip of water.  After we checked in the attic we found that the 'let's put the cap back in place and take the easy way out' wasn't even secured to the chimney.  There was also a really big gap and the water was just pouring in.  The only damage is a very small water mark on my bedroom ceiling.  You can't see it unless it's pointed out to you.  That will be the next thing to fix.
I finally have gotten rid of my sinus headache.  It was so nice to wake up this morning with a head that didn't hurt.  It had been hurting for almost 2 weeks straight.  I can function now so it's off to get some fabric cut out.

Your quilts are so cool!!! I am so happy that you are feeling really good. Thursday I hope to get the rest of the material for my son's quilt. That is with your help.
I can hardly wait to see what new quilts or purses you will create!
