8:15 pmAnd watch the pigs fly…
I finished the Quiet Book. Before Christmas. I also finished the projects for the big kids. Before Christmas. (Granted, I was still swearing and yanking and adjusting and crying over Jachin’s quilt binding on Christmas Eve…)
Behold:
Deacon’s Quiet Book!
Bound, and with most pages completed (though the clock’s hands keep falling off. I need to adjust the brad and eyelet).
Jachin’s video game character quilt!
Here are all of the characters:
If you look at this quilt even a little bit closely, you will find a plethora of mistakes… luckily, Jachin doesn’t seem to care.
And Zoe and Julie’s aprons!
See the cute ribbon I found for the ties??
Here’s a close-up of Julie’s. Both aprons have fake pockets and everything.
Again, if you look closely, it’s not good. But Zoe doesn’t care and Julie’s eyes are made of glass, so she can’t look closely.
Pigs flew Christmas morning, and fresh bacon was had by all. God bless us, every one.

PS Byron would like to put in an order for a video game quilt. He figures that now you’ve mastered the art another one should be a piece of cake!

We did a lot of homemade Christmas gifts, too. They’re so special! Nice job.
