Now you all know I have a sister, don’t you? Remember I made Gail’s Christmas Wishes quilt for her for Christmas… That’s it on her couch in the pic above 🙂 Oh, now to finish mine!!!! I love it 🙂

Back to my sister. Her name is Christie and she is nine years younger than me. I had been praying an awful long time for a little sister and I was sooooo excited when she finally came along! I got to practice all my mothering skills on her…(poor thing, but she did survive I assure you!).

When she was a teenager we started doing craft together. Back in those days, believe it or not, I did not quilt! I did paper crafts with my little sis – we made cards and did stamping and embossing and decoupage and … and… and… We did markets together, and looking back at what we were trying to sell.. well, hmmm,… let’s change the subject shall we?!

When I had babies and not much time for crafting, I gave away the card making, and changed to scrapbooking…. Christie kept going with the stamping and card making and also took up scrapbooking. Then I got addicted to quilting! And gave nearly all paper crafts away, but Christie kept going and is now a master of paper crafts! Look at some of the gorgeous things she has made:

She is also a master baker (ahem, I think I taught her that.. got to give myself some credit for her upbringing 🙂 ) :

Recently she has made a foray into fabric… yes!! But NOT sewing.. oh no… she does not like needle and thread! Instead she has been making gorgeous hair clips, hair ties and magnets:

Oh and she also has the most scrumptious, yummy children 🙂

I am NOT biased or anything…. 🙂

So why am I telling you all of this? It’s because she has finally started up a blog! Yay! It is called Christie’s Cutesie Crafts andI’m hoping you will go over there and welcome her to blogland!! She will be blogging about her stamping and card making and things she makes for market…. so I’m sure some of you will enjoy meeting her and seeing all the creative things she does. Please go say “hi” to her HERE!

Tomorrow I will tell you all about yesterday when I faced flooded roads and pestilence and got to sew a little 🙂
