I have to brag...

I have to take a minute and brag about a very AMAZING lady in my life.

MY MOTHER IN LAW

She has raised 5 amazing boys - the oldest which is my husband.
And somehow amongst all the crazines she was still able
to fit in time for herself QUILTING.

(Although I secretly think this became her Valium...)

I went to a quilt retreat several weeks ago
where she was the trunk show.
I thought I had lost these pictures as they were taken with my phone
BUT I just found them.

She has created some amazing quilts.
She has also promised to document them
- - - I sure hope she does, because her boys don't know her stories - - -

I am amazed at her ability.
Here are the pics








My husband left the iron on this cross stitch
She actually let him live
Boy am I GLAD!!
Not only is she an amazing quilter

but she is a wonderful mother in law,

grounded in the gospel of Jesus Christ.

LOVE YOU!!
