Three twins...

Three twin quilts are now complete. A family in our ward needed bedding for the children. I told the Relief Society President that I had material from my mother-in-law just for this purpose. So I looked through all the material so I could get inspired as to colors for each child. There were 2 girls and 1 boy.

I made this one for the boy. The top is a panel so don't think I did ALL that. I just pieced together the sides and binding and tied it.

This is for the oldest girl. The top. Once again panels. I just added the black border.

The back. This was a fun one - picking out colors from the top to create a whole new look!

This is for the other girl. I had fun with this one. I went with calicoes since they are my favorite material. I hope she likes them too.

I think this was in 2004. It was Nephi's first trip to the beach. The boys were all so little! My have they grown.

Meet the Parents...Russell and Candace
It all started for us when Russell left for Cape Town South Africa on a mission. Candace felt inspired to write him - so she did! We wrote for 3 1/2 years. Candace came home from her mission to the Texas Houston East Mission and we dated for 5 months. We married in July 1994 and have been happy ever after!
