I've been a little crafty over Christmas break! Finished Owen's quilt for a soft a cuddly Christmas gift and was inspired by the sewmamasew green grocery bag challenge to make a market tote!

The quilt top was done and ready for a month or so before I finally found the backing and put it all together. I used the machine to quilt...really didn't know what I was doing exactly, but I like how it turned out!



The fabric I used for the market bag jumped out at me while I was shopping for Owen's quilt backing...so of course I decided why not buy it :) I was surprised at how quickly I finished the bag. I like the size, although I wish the handles were a bit longer...I had to slip stitch the bottom of the lining closed, hopefully no one looks too closely at my handiwork!

East vs. West

Last night the family headed to BHS to watch the oldies hoop it up. This was the second year they've had an East vs. West alumni basketball game and there was a great turnout. Last year the gym was packed as they honored Les, the old East High coach, who has since passed. It was fun to be back in the gym again this year with an addition to the cheering section...Owen Reid! I can already tell he's going to be the most handsome basketball star!

Dad came through with a double, double earning co-MVP for East and plenty of recognition after the game. He sure is a local legend!
