Rosie's Christmas Inspiration

I'm so excited I received a gift from Stephanie Forsyth in our quilt group gift exchange. It's an adorable framed tree. Thanks Stephanie!

Here is the gift I made for the exchange. I decided to do handwork, sometimes it is very relaxing.

Our small quilt group is named the Rosie Quilter's, originally for Roseville the city where we meet. We decided we liked being named after Rosie the Riveter too. But today the Rosie's went Russian. We went to the Russian Museum and than to a Russian restaurant (Moscow on the Hill)for our Christmas celebration. It really was amazing. It's not a huge museum but they pack a lot into it. There was an exhibit of photos from the Silk Road and an exhibit of Matryoshka dolls and many paintings. The gift shop was a hit with our group. I came away with a Christmas ornament and a new address book. The food at the restaurant was fantastic.

Have a creative day.
