Blanket Parade

Howdy Girls!! 
In-laws still here. ;o}

Yes...I need to paint all the ballister rails Swiss Coffee White still.

But, could you just see past that and look at my lovely blanket parade?
There is not even 1 red rose on that multi-colored afghan but there was 1 made with only red roses on it that I let go of...I know, I know.  But, how many dozens can you keep in a little cottage?

The lil' guy is a baby quilt Mother-in-law made for my oldest that will be 13 soon.

The gorgeous "Texas style" red, white and blue pin-wheel Mother-in-law made for hubby and I years ago.  I think she appreciates that I have them on display.

Texas Love to all of ya!!

  5. I think I've been to Clear Lake City. Is that anywhere near League City, TX? We lived in Webster, TX for about 5 months when I was a little girl and my dad's church was in one of those two towns...can't remember which. We went to NASA's MSC every Sunday after church. It was only about a mile from Webster. I was 8.
    Love your quilts and afghan :) Happy Reds~
