Genius Golfer's Light Show Extravaganza ended New Year's Eve night. So yesterday the family took the donations over to friends, Rick and Tammy. They didn't know that this was the purpose behind the light show--them! Rick's cousin and her hubby had video taped it for us so we gave a DVD copy of the light show to them so Tammy could see it. They were surprised to say the least. On the way home from their place, I asked The Boy about the whole process. "It felt good to do something nice for them, Mom." Mission accomplished.
Today, the final Christmas remnants will come down. I leave the Christmas cards, pictures, and newsletters up until the last day of Christmas vacation. I love to look at the bright colored cards, shiny, smiling faces in the photos and recall all the friends and family behind the newsletters as I sit in the dining room each day for dinner, or work in the kitchen, or loiter aimlessly before going, again, to the Gas 'nSip.
I finished the TV TShirt Quilt yesterday. I sewed all the Tshirts together and then backed them with fleece and then top stitched each of the Tshirt seams to strengthen it. No batting this time at all. the fleece makes it high statically charged though. I hadn't thought of that. But it just the right size to curl up under to watch yet another British costume drama from the BBC and/or PBS's Masterpiece Theater.

WOW! Your quilt is awesome! Good job! I threw out my cut tshirts-ready-for-a-quilt long, long ago.
You're amazing! The quilt is beautiful! I love a good "throw over the top of you" blanket. And, tell me how I can see the video of the decorations....I couldn't ever find it. K
That tshirt quilt is a brilliant idea!
Shauna, you are an amazing inspiration! I wish there had been more for Rick and Tami, but I'm sure they were grateful, I'm lucky to count you as one of my friends!
