OHIO STATE PLACE MATS.

I was unable to play microsoft games
on my computer.
Felipe a PhD Student at Ohio State fixed
up my computer for me.

So I decided  to make him some
Ohio State  Placemats.
 

  
 I bought the material at
Joann Fabrics. 
So I am so happy I can play my
games I enjoy again.

MY BIRTHDAY

Can you  believe I am 86 years old.
My daughter had a great taco Dinner for me.

When my Grandmother was 86 I thought she
was a old old person.

But I think of my self as a spring Chicken . haha
Blowing out the candles.

POT HOLDERS

I made these pot holders for the
women of my church that sew
lap quilts  for people in the hospital;


 I thought it would be nice to give to them
as we all can use pot holders.
