A Quilter's Christmas: So how was your Rudy Day? . . . . .

What is Rudy Day ? .....

I've always enjoyed Christmas. The decorations, the flurry and, of course, the real meaning but always felt let down on December 26. It was all over in a flash. All the planning and doing was gone in a minute. Finally I found the OC ...not the tv show but the Organized Christmas website which led to the Magical Holiday Home Forum. I don't even know how I found it but I did. And they had this wonderful thing called Rudolph Day....Rudy Day to most of us.....that lets you think, plan, dream about Christmas at least once a month on the 25th. And the best thing was I found more people out there just like me ! Crazy about all things Christmas. Well, almost obsessive. But to my family and friends that think I'm nuts half the time, I just want you to know there is no cure for it so don't try to find one. I wouldn't want the cure if you could find one anyway.

So how was your Rudy Day? . . . . .

I got a few things finished. I watched the movie "Call Me Claus" with Whoopi Goldberg. Cute movie.

I made several ornaments two years ago with baby socks. I bought enough stuff to make 12 ornaments but for some reason only made 7 of them.

This was still in my Rudy box. . . . .

Halfway through the movie, I had this finished. . . . . . FINALLY!

These were also taking up room in the box. Not sure why. I think I thought one of the letters was missing but apparently not.

So I decided to make a little bag out of flannel to store them in. . . . .

Also, watched part of "Elf". I just love that movie! I went through my quilt and craft Christmas patterns to try and decide what my next project will be for next Rudy Day on April 25th. I probably should finish one of the many Christmas quilts that I have started!

Blessings, Cathi

The Old Parsonage said...: Great idea for the baby socks! Good for you getting into your Rudy box. I skipped it this month, too much to do for the party.

Hope that spring has sprung!
