New Camera!!

Hey Guys!!

So I bought myself a new camera for my own Christmas present! Well actually I have been saving for a while now, and I decided Black Friday would be a good time to purchase one! I have been torn between Nikon and Canon. I talked to a family friend who is a photographer. She uses Nikon but she told me when she buys a new one she was going to go Canon because she feels that they have better sensors, and the image and color quality is better. Then I have a good friend who uses Nikon, and she is a great photographer as well! She loves Nikon and i loved using hers!
The decided factor was price. The Canon had better deals, and I liked the way it felt in my hand. I got the camera kit (Canon Rebel T3) with lens for 100 dollars off normal price, and plus I got a free case, 8GB memory card, and UV filter!

So that's what I went with and I went and picked it up, and I love it! I have yet to read the manual, but i have been playing around with it and I am happy with what I have been seeing.

Here are a few of my pictures I have taken!! Enjoy!

Brooklyn's Quilt FINISHED!

Hey Everyone!! Remember the quilt I have been working on for my cousin's baby? Well her name is Brooklyn Tanner, she lives down in Texas where it is warmer then here in New Hampshire (where her parents are from originally) So I used a thin cotton batting so she could still use it in the Texas heat, or what they would call cool nights down there. Ha!

They have been waiting on this for a while and I feel sorta bad, but I'm glad I took my time quilting it! Her colors are purple and yellow, so I used scraps and made a pinwheel design!

I wasn't going to put her name on it, but then I decided I would so if anyone tried to steal it they couldn't because it will have her name on it! So because i decided to do this after I had to applique a purple square onto the back of the quilt so her name would show up because the pattern on the back is so fun that you wouldn't be able to see it if i just did it on there!

Now for the pictures!!

Yes it snowed in NH in October!! This is probably going to be the first and maybe last time this Blanket will ever see snow!! haha.
