The House That Built Me

 This is a painting my youngest, Jaycee, has been working on for a few weeks for my Dad's Birthday.  She finished it and gave it to Dad on Monday {a little late}.  This is the home where we grew up in Springville.  My parents moved to Provo years ago when Dad retired, but this home holds lots of memories for all of us.  I remember roller skating up and down the sidewalks with my old roller skates that you tightened with a key.  Family dinners, laughter and tears.  Too much to even put into words.  It was so fun to see it come to life, step by step.  It was also a little bittersweet since they demolished the home last summer.  Jaycee found an old picture on Google Maps and that's what she used to paint it.  I was so excited to see it done, but forgot to take a picture of it all finished with the grass and trees.  {I'll get one and post it soon!}  

 I did this quick quilt for my friend.  She bought this cute Rylee Blake fabric and I quilted it with circles.  I love the cute dinosaurs along the selvage.  I bound it in the turquoise fabric from the back.  Turned out so stinkin' cute!  

 And this one I quilted up for another friend.  I love the triangles in the solid colors.  In fact I've pinned a few on Pinterest, hoping to get one done soon.
