I am going to try to be a better blogger, but it may be after the first of the year. I don't even read a lot of blogs anymore and I miss it! Okay...enough whining! LOL
Some things I have been working on are for SSCS 10 so I can't show you any pictures yet. I think I'm finished with that though...just have to get things wrapped and winging their way across the world...very exciting!
Kara and I took a class at Oklahoma Quiltworks in Oklahoma City last Saturday from Emily Siemers and we had a great time. We made Christmas stockings and here's a picture of mine and Jay's.
Emily, our teacher, did a wonderful job with the class and pushing me out of my comfort zone. The only pattern we had was the stocking shape and we had to patch our own fabric and then quilt it. Very fun and fairly quick and easy too! Thanks Emily!
I almost have my Nearly Insane quilt or from here forward known as "Ranette's Peppermint Twist Quilt" finished binding. It's so pretty and I really do think this is my favorite quilt....even more so than my Dear Jane. I just love it and it makes me happy! I'll hopefully post pictures of it by Thursday.
Since I don't have anymore quilt pictures to show, I'll show you a picture of our Kitty...that's her name...she's a mess.
Time to go get ready for work. Maybe the sun will shine today...yesterday was rainy and cold all day. I like rain and cold, but only if I'm at home all snug and warm.
I'll be back soon! ranette

Please don't give up. It would be sad without you. You have a lot to offer and I would miss you. Do what you can when you can and if you have lost a follower well it is their loss.
Love Shirley.xx
Be a no guilt blogger. Okay? Life happens and it is okay if you don't post every day or every week. Just enjoy the process and post when you can. I'll still be here.
I myself are guilty of not visiting blogs like I would like to because I am still having issues with my elbow. (tenonitis) I like to save my "elbow" for sewing.
Almost forgot to tell you how much I like the stocking. very pretty.
Just love those stockings! I agree with Carrie. Just post when you can! And feel good about it. Just think about how much more you'll have to say in your posts! Love the new look of your blog. ~karen
What cute stickings!!!
I like the idea of no guilt blogging. It's your blog, you post when you want.:)
I want those stockings except with mine and Larry's name on them. I don't think Ranette and Jay would work here unless you would like me to fill them up??? lol
I will take Kitty too!! She is just too cute for words. And you should have no guilt blogging. That is what makes it fun.
I can't wait to see your "Peppermint Twist". I bet it is a sight to see...
"Better one post a month than no blog at all" Write that down please and stick the paper on your pc. If you keep your blog, I'll keep following! :-)
Really nice stockings btw!
I'm happy with the couple of times a month. Please at least stay around some we can see your NI quilt.
Love the stockings!
Cute stockings! Cute Kitty. Sounds like mine. Only she's obsessed with Aaron since he moved back in with us. Did I tell you he joined the Marines? I can hardly wait to see your nearly insane quilt. Welcome back. Missed you!
Those are great stockings. You know, I have an embroidery module for my Bernina and don't use it. I guess it is time I dig her out and try.
You know I can't wait to see more of your Peppermint Twist. I still can't decide if I am going to save up or quilt mine myself.
I enjoy every post you make, so please, don't stop blogging! Just post when you can.
Love those stockings!!
I can't wait to see Ranette's Peppermint Twist!!
Love Kitty!!! I had a cat called Kitty once too!
I hope the sun is shining for you today. :)
Oh don't cancel your blog! So what if one person takes a hike. Who needs fair-weather followers when you have so many others who love you =o) I love your stockings. The font on the names is so pretty. Did Mom tell you that your cat looks like one we used to have? Pretty Kitty.
Those socks look very professional and nice colours too. I was just thinking of following you so I don't miss it when you write a new post! So that's one extra follower again then:) Keep writing when you feel to it!
