Sisterly Love. . .

Not only do I have three girls of my own, but I am also one of three girls (have I mentioned that I love girls?). Both of my sisters came to visit about a week ago, along with my nephew. Fun times. . . And. . . lucky me! They actually wanted to sew while they were here! Can you believe it? I can't really. My youngest sister is Miss Athletic/Hiker/Trainer/Volleyballer/Whatever and I figured it would be hard to get her to sit still long enough to sew--but--BUT-- she wanted to make blankets for her in-laws this year for Christmas. So, we sewed.


The first is for her hubby's parents-- I love the colors of this one! It is just enough Christmas-y, without overdoing it. And of course, the minky dimple dots are so fun and soft!
The second is for her sis-in-law-- nicknamed BUBBA. This was my first time with applique-ing (how the heck to do you spell THAT?). It is a little tricky. And I forgot how much I LOVE to work with fur (do you sense the sarcasm in there?). But it turned out so fun and SOOO soft. Hope they love them!
