Hello to my blogger friends! I had not realized it was so long since I had posted in my blog. I've been so busy preparing for Christmas, as I'm sure everyone else has been too. I did complete the swaps I was working on. And also managed to make two extra raggy totes to sell.
One tote matches the pink & brown quilt I made and would be perfect to be used as a diaper bag. The other one is smaller; has Care Bears fabric and a striped chenille. I will be listing them in etsy soon. If you are interested in either one, just e-mail me for details.

The pink & brown diaper bag sold today, but I can make another one; won't be exactly the same, but almost.....
I've been working on a raggy quilt. It is pink & brown, about 35" by 44"; perfect size for a toddler bed or baby crib, or a lap quilt. The top is cotton and chenille, back & inside flannel. These are sewed with the traditional X and washed once to start the bloom. It will be list this weekend on one of my sites -- not sure of which one yet. If you are interested, just e-mail me.
I've been making Christmas stockings. Since I love to do scrappy strips, I decided to make these stockings using that pattern. These are about 15" long and are washable. These front & back are cotton; the inside is flannel. They have been washed once to start the bloom. Either e-mail me for the price or check out my booth at The Hand Did Market.
I'm sure everyone has been as busy as I've been. I remember all the years we spent thanksgiving at either my mother's or my mother-in-law's house. How I wish for those times. I am happy, though, that some of our kids and grandkids will be here for dinner. Rochelle & I have been doing the preparations for tomorrow. Because Joseph will eat lunch at his financee's house, we'll do the late meal. I've found it works out better as I have a hard time getting started in morning. It is nice that our kids bring food, too.
Besides Thanksgiving preparations, I've been listing this week on eBay. One of my groups, Quilter's Corner, does a once-a-month red tag sale. Here is the url if you would like to check out our listings: http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksid=m38.l1313&_nkw=qcg&_sacat=See-All-Categories or Search QCG on eBay.
Check out the Raggy Anne blog, also. I've been making raggy scrappy strip stockings.

Sorry, I haven't been posting here. I've been busy getting ready for a Church show. There wasn't a big crowd, but we did manage to sell a few items, incuding three raggy quilts. It was a lot of work, though! If you would check out our Raggy Anne blog, you can see our display.
I will be busy this week doing housework. I'm also working on small Christmas gifts for some internet friends. For anyone placing orders with me, they will also receive a gift from me.
Hope everyone has a wonderful Monday.
The other day, DH & I was at store and bought some stuffed chicken. Since I love to try new recipes, I decided to create my own. This is what I came up with:
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 Tbs. dried parsley
powdered garlic
bacon bits
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, butterflied
2 Tbs.butter, melted
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
In a bowl, mix the cream cheese, parsley, bacon bits and garlic powder. Divide the mixture into 4 balls.
Place 1 cream cheese ball in the center of each butterflied chicken breast half.
Arrange the chicken in a baking dish. Pour the butter over the chicken.
Bake 45 minutes in the preheated oven; turn over.
Bake another 45 minutes.
Serve.
Hope you enjoy!
