Quilty Hugs to start 2015!

We welcome 2015 with a household of family. Mom and I are just enjoying sitting by the fire, drinking our tea and visiting as she knits and I bind my Christmas Quilt. She and her pup are keeping warm under her Chevron Quilt I made last summer.

We thought the boys were in the "Man Cave" watching their marathon of New Year's Day football, but instead I caught them watching through their eyelids as they were obviously cozy warm under flannel twister quilts. (My son-in-law is cozy under my husband's which you can see here and my dad's was made this past summer and you can see it here.)
These are certainly one of those ulitmate moments we quilters cherish.
I'm returning to my spot by the fire, but wanted to a take a moment to share some quilty hugs happening around my house and wish everyone a happy, happy, New Year! I'm certainly looking forward to another creative year together in blogland!!
With smiles,
Val:)

  1. It's great to see the object of your labors being appreciated. Even the pups are getting into the act. Thanks for the smile this gave me. I know my quilts are appreciated. One needs repair where the dog misused it. I'm glad they want it repaired. Sez they respect my time and effort on it.
    Hugs
