Grandmama Hodges : It is August already???
http://embroidererlinda.blogspot.com/2014/08/it-is-august-already.html
Monday, August 4, 2014. It is August already? Getting ready for the mission mostly, but I have done some embroidery in between. Trying to figure out what I need for 18 months is not easy, but in a way it is good because it forces me to sort thru everything. I have to empty the MBR because the youngest daughter will move in while we are away. How did I get so much stuff :-). 23 days till departure! This was a job that a friend asked me to do after seeing Suzy's:. The next set needs to be done by next week.

Grandmama Hodges : June 2014
http://embroidererlinda.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 5, 2014. I am constantly working on sewing, quilting and embroidery projects. Suzy will be teaching Chinese immersion to fourth graders next year and asked me to create some banners for her classroom. The problem is I do not know Chinese and needed some very specific instructions on creating. After some trial and error, I came up with these. Now I just need to hem and create a way to hang them. For Memorial Day and the Fourth of July I embroidered this:. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Grandmama Hodges : May 2014
http://embroidererlinda.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 18, 2014. We traveled to NJ for my step mother's funeral. She has been a part of our lives for 44 years. She was 94 years old and wanted to live to 100! The happy part of attending a funeral is getting to see and visit with many family and friends we have not seen for perhaps years. This is my Dad(on the left) and his brother, Uncle Peter. They enjoy each others company so much and you can sure see the family resemblance. I was a little tough for me, because I did not want to damage the gown ...

Grandmama Hodges : March 2014
http://embroidererlinda.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 12, 2014. Cannot post current projects. I have been very busy this week, but some of my projects will be future gifts and I cannot give away the surprise. On Sunday we had an open house for Hermana Moyer as she leaves very soon for the Mexico City MTC. We had about 50 people and I think it was wonderful for her to have a chance to visit with everyone. I had easy foods and a special treat, Shrimp! Special treat for me, but all seemed to love). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Grandmama Hodges : August 2014
http://embroidererlinda.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 20, 2014. Sewing room is officially closed. I am finishing up some last gifts and have to close up the sewing room as it will be used for storage while we are away for 18 months. A daughter and her friend will be renting two bedrooms during our absence. This requires moving lots of stuff into the sewing room. I will donate this week. Last is a gift that will soon be given, but took h-o-u-r-s to quilt, so I will share it. The sewing room is officially closed! Now back to packing! I have ...

Grandmama Hodges : July 2014
http://embroidererlinda.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 23, 2014. New / Old Singer featherweight 221. We have been traveling for the last month and saw almost all of the children and their families. We also got to welcome two new grandchildren. They are the cutest! I especially love snuggling the newest ones. I have been looking at these machines for months as they are a favorite with quilters. I was so excited. I'm not sure if Betsi was wondering about me at that point! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Missionary Adventures and Spiritual Insights.

Shaping the Nest: November 2014
http://shapingthenest.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 25, 2014. Finished ceilings and new fixtures in the den/kitchen. It feels good we are making some progress in an area of our house that was in bad shape for a long time. We removed the popcorn ceilings and were stuck there for a while. We sanded, primed, and painted the ceiling and painted the walls too. It really motivated us to get it all done once we got the new ceiling fan and light. Here are some before pictures and progress shots. Monday, November 17, 2014. I read an article that ...
