I finished the applique on Home Sweet Home block #3. I still have to embroider the top of the tree to connect the leaves and acorn. Right now they look like they are floating in air. LOL!

I started another locker hooked rug. This time it's going to be pink and green with a little tan. I turned under and finished the edges of the rug first this time. I also mitered the corners of the folded back edges and will hook them together with the top so the back doesn't have any raw edges. I'm busting some old stash with this one!

I went along with Annie to her high risk OB appointment last week. Look at this amazing picture from the ultrasound! Hopefully when she goes back this month we will be able to see the sexes of the babies. My husband said he can't wait to find out what they are. When asked why, he said "That's when we go into financial ruin." LOL!!! We've been waiting to find out if they are boys or girls to begin the MOTHER OF ALL SHOPPING SPREES!!! Also, to plan the BEST BABY SHOWER OF THE CENTURY!!!

Isn't that amazing? I think that's baby A. We couldn't get very good images of baby B because he/she was a wiggle worm, flipping all over the place!

Oh, I did start a new quilt. I had some older pieces of Robyn Pandolph fabric that I had gotten off E-bay a while ago. They came with a magazine, Australian Country Threads, that had a pattern for Hannah's Wedding Quilt. I was trying to find some more fabrics to go with the older ones I had but just gave up and started cutting it out. I'll take a picture next time to show you. It is really pretty.

Bye for now. Have a quilty day!
