Tomorrow my extended family gathers for our annual holiday party. My mom, aunts, uncles and cousins will all be present. There will be lots of noise and mayhem, just like it should be at the holidays. But most important of all, we will all be together . My ears can spend the rest of the week recovering. 14 of the 16 grandchildren will be there and I can't wait to see them.
Among the group, I have 5 godchildren and Jerry has 1. We give gifts to each of them at Christmas and their birthdays. So this year, I decided I was going to use some of my fabric stash that I have been collecting for the past 20 years and make a pair of warm flannel p.j.'s for each of them. This has proven to be quite the undertaking, especially since I waited until the past two days to start the project. Procrastination has been a life long companion.
Well with some help from my hubby (who took care of Courtney on his own for the last 2 days), I have finished them! Yea!! So here they are...I am so excited to see every one's face tomorrow. It's going to be awesome!!
Happy Sewing,
Mary
