Quilted Plum

Outside my window....last Saturday

A Winter Wonderland?

Design Wall Monday 11-1-10

Nothing new on my design wall, but here is the wool project AI talked about last week. I haven't added any more holly to it yet. Here I have pinned a few pieces by the i and the T. If I decide to add them, I will also sew on a few more "berries". I'm still very tempted to just leave them off. I really don't think they would be missed!

I was also able to do a little machine quilting this week. I quilted two quilts. I have had to really back off because I continue to have a neck or shoulder or back problem. I have not really been able to pin it down. I just know if I do to much I have lots of discomfort in my neck and burning down my shoulder. It is really cutting into my productivity, very frustrating!

So enough of my little whine...This last weekend we had our little grand-dog because Emily had to works lots of hours and her fiance usually takes Mya but he was gone.

I took this picture of her when she was outside. If she was just a little closer to the horns, I think would look like the Grinch's dog. You know, when the Grinch dresses him up like a reindeer to "steal Christmas" from the who's of whoville! I always loved that story when I was a kid!  Yes, those are the horns from the Alaskan trip , that Mr. Plum went on in September. They stink, so we have them outside airing out. I hope it works. Mr. Plum scrubbed them and that didn't seem to do much. Anybody have any suggestions. I'm afraid they are destined for my wall and I don't want them to stink!!!

And finally the winner of the tea towel giveaway is Pam K. Thanks to everyone who commented both here and on facebook!

Trivia question: Anybody remember what the Grinch's dog's name is?
