My hubby and I bought tickets to The Very Merry Christmas Party at Walt Disney World for our two kids , their families and us. We live in FL within driving distance of the mouse's house.I am looking forward to a magical time with all of us together that night. Our best gift is watching the joy in our grand kids' eyes.Peggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11901240196709459486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-611636592253902445.post-69843273908291226472011-11-14T14:16:15.613-06:002011-11-14T14:16:15.613-06:00What I want for Christmas/Hanukkah this year is ti...What I want for Christmas/Hanukkah this year is time with my Hubby.

Amazon.com is great for letting people know which books I don't have but am hoping for, which seasons of what favorite show I'd love to watch when I'm not feeling well, etc. The new addition to my wishlist is fabric, and that's probably what I want most. In the past, I never thought to ask for fabric, probably in part because I would turn around and make it into something I'd be giving as a gift. But I have decided to make more quilts for our home, and wallhangings and table runners--I want it to reflect that a quilter does live here. And so I feel okay about wishing for a fat quarter bundle or a layer cake. <br /><br />My sweetheart loves to give the big, thoughtful gift--example, one birthday he surprised me with the laptop I'm tapping on right now. So when I say, I'd like a stack of 10 inch squares, that seems a little puny to him. But it thrills me, and I've found another sweet aspect to it: now, when I make a quilt with fabric I've been given, the giver becomes part of the quilt. I'm starting work on a quilt made with fabric and a pattern book I received from a faraway cousin. And that cousin is so close to my thoughts as I work. It's a lovely, unexpected bonus.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11786511163919657885noreply@blogger.com
