WHEN GRANDPA COMES HOME

My husband works in Iraq and comes home every 6 months or so for some well deserved R&R. It seems like all rules go out the door for the Grandkids (not that there are very many) but jumping in the hot tub is a no-no.
I was inside cooking dinner and he was outside taking pictures.
Here is what I found later when I looked on his camera…

Did you know, you could get 14 grand kids in a hot tub at the same time?

I think there is only nine in this picture. Who knows though. A couple of them could have been under water at the time.

WE’RE ALL SO GLAD WHEN GRANDPA COMES HOME!

CURTAIN SKIRTS

I made these…

I didn’t like them.

So I made this out of them…

Then I made more….

And I made these….

For their hair.

And these…

For an accent.

I made them for these….

And this….

So cute…

Their Mom did their hair…

Love it.

Posing….

(We need to pull it up over that cute little belly.)

More posing….

I put some straps on this one so it’s a dress this year and a skirt next year…

They like them!

CHECKING MY POLKA DOTS

I had this…

I love polka dots!!!
I had this…

I love ric rac!!!
I had this stuff….

I love it too except they never put enough in one package to do a quilt so you have to buy two and then you have lots left over.
I had this dish towel… actually I had 2.

Not a big fan of dish towels.
I was always the dryer when my brother and I did the dishes. I don’t like doing dishes thus… I don’t like dish towels except…
When you cut them in half…

See you have it already finished on one side.\
So you cut a strip of polka dot fabric and fold it in half the long way and sew it to the unfinished edge.
Then sew on your ric rac…
