Christmas 2021

 Christmas was pretty low key over here at chez Lincoln.  
We didn't have the grandbaby but our other 2 kids were here. 
 I forgot to share some photos of the Christmas stockings I made for my great nephew Charlie.
  Thought I would share those now.


This Santa one was made for Charlie's grandma and grandpa's house.  
I had a devil of a time finding that green for the name. 
 I usually put my fabrics for a project into fabric jail. 
 Somehow this one became an escapee.  
GRRRR. 
 Luckily, I happened to find the order form for the fabric I had used so could get the name.  Unfortunately, the fabric is an out of print fabric, Moda Bella Peppermint. 
 I managed to find some in Canada, so ordered it.  
Then the next day I found some in the US and ordered that too. 
 NOW it is in fabric jail, until this family is finished having babies!


This stocking went to Charlie's house.  
It matches the stockings of his folks and his brother.


You know that I was working on a "Canada" quilt for my husband for Christmas.
  I got it finished in time!  


I had my quilter quilt the word "Canada" into it. 
 You can see the loons below the word too.


I did this on the top and bottom of the quilt.



I put fishing lure flannel on the back.


I have other Christmas quilt gifts to share but in another post.  
I thought I would share a family photo.


Every year my 3 kids take the clip-on candles I have and see who can put theirs the highest on the tree.
My eldest put hers where she is pointing. 
 My son was so tired he decided that he wasn't going to play.


So she put both his and her sister's upside down on the lowest branch, LOL.


The same daughter made those cinnamon rolls in a tube in her waffle maker and they were AMAZING!


One quick photo of my sweet boy who had Christmas in NC.
Gigi and Papa sure did miss him!



More Christmas tomorrow!
