Happy New Year!
The end of the year was so busy with many things that my Blog suffered from no posts! I had some positive results with eco-dyeing silk scarfs and plan to do more. I didn't give any as gifts this year because I'm not totally satisfied with my results yet. More to come!I had a wonderful Holiday Season and Merry Christmas with my family and friends. I love having each and every one of you in my life.

I had a few of my friends over for "Holiday Dinner at Diane's" and craft time. The craft I had chosen was too complicated to finish before they left for home. We will get together sometime to finish the "snowmen ornaments." My friend Gerri brought along a wonderful little craft to do. We made small paper pocketbooks! I put mine on the Christmas Tree as an ornament. She saved the day!

I completed the queen size log cabin quilt I've been making for Ronnie! I worked on and off for a few years sewing the scrap fabric blocks. I had it professionally quilted then I made and attached the binding. He was Very Pleased with his gift.
My children and their spouses gave me a wonderful Christmas gift. We will be going to RI in June to the Newport Flower Show and Mansion Tours. I know we will have a wonderful time and I'm very excited and looking forward to it! Speaking of flowers:
I thought my amaryllis was going to have only one blossom this year. Not so! It has three and it's such a beautiful flower. And both of my Christmas cactus blossomed beautifully for Thanksgiving!

My dear friends Muffie and Norman gave me a gift certificate to Dharma Trading Co. "your one stop shop for fiber art supplies"!
Yipee!
Wishing Everyone a Happy and Healthy New Year!
and Remember to Play a Little Each Day!
Peace,
Diane
