Judy Chose the Hex Quilt

Well....we figured this would happen.  The Florida Log Cabin was just too scary for her.  The quilts are labelled and Judy's is delivered.  We get to keep the wild quilt -- YEA!

Jessica's Tree Skirt

Made the Laurel Burch tree skirt I planned 5 years ago.

I quilted it with gold sliver thread - took some practice :)   This fabric was so beautiful to me that I really hated to cut into it.  I have enough left over to make another when Emily has a home of her own.

Zeroing In on Christmas

Did mostly hand-sewing this week.  We've decided to call the Spring Log Cabin "the Florida Quilt". It is all bound except for the label corner. And the Hex Quilt is bound except for the label corner. Judy came by and couldn't decided which quilt she wanted...last update she's leaning towards the Hex. Connie will take them both over to her house this week to see if she can finally decide  :)

Finished a couple of stockings for Stephen and Dennis last night.  Always kinda dread getting out the embroidery module...but there's nothing to it really.  Just a bit of hand sewing left and they're ready to stuff.

Planning to make a few more Christmas-y things - a tree skirt for Jessica, some little stockings or gift bags for candy, maybe mug mats to go with some Laurel Burch mugs.

Quilts for Kids Finished and Binding Binge

I'll be mailing off these little donation quilts tomorrow. Fun to do and made me feel good to boot.
