Sawyer's Blanket

Well it took some doin' but I finally got Sawyer's blanket finished. It seems like I have problems with the sewing machine every time I use it. I finally had Hazen take it to the repair store because I didn't know what else to do with it and it would have sat half finished for years. Turns out all that was wrong was I had the wrong size bobbin. Thanks Mom for telling me there were different size bobbins. Anyway, I'm no seamstress but I guess it turned out alright.

The top 3 materials of for the front squares and the bottom flannel piece is for the back.

Christmas

We had a great time over Christmas break. Made it to WA for a week and a half. It was very nice to be able to spend some time with family and friends. We made it back to Boise last night after the long drive home. It's a good thing we took the truck because we were loaded down. Now back to work and getting ready for Sawyer. Our next adventures are too far away. The beginning of February is the baby shower and Hazen's trip to California.
