Christmas Quilt Along, December

This is it for 2012's Christmas QAL.  Thank you so much to Sue of Quilt Times http://quilttimes.blogspot.com/ who began this adventure.  Even though I'm in my sixties (yikes, me?)  I was really a newbie to the quilting world when I joined in the qal three years ago.  My home is now covered (literally) with many of the things I made on these second Saturdays. 

 

My polar bear and penquin wall hanging is waiting for me to get the hooks in the wall so it can be it's stunning self.

 

My Scatty Stars quilt hangs on the back post of my bed.  Looks great there, too.

 

 

I made this runner last year, I think.  There is more, but you get the gist.

 

This year's cross stitch is unfinished but I only have two sections to go and then it's done.

Last but most certainly anxiously awaited is the Festive Mystery Quilt, sandwiched, pinned, rolled and waiting for this quilter to get to the sewing machine and finish it. 

• I don't seem to have much to show off from this past year, but I have unfinished blocks and quilts that I plan on getting to come 2013.  Would anyone be interested in joining me for a "Let's Finish Those Projects" day once a month?   I definitely need one. 
• God Bless You.
 

 



October Christmas QAL 2; Pretty Sleeves

I've got the sleeves put together.  They will have a ribbon around the top of the lace and a bow on the the outside.

 

 

I'm going to begin the bodice next but need to find lace for the neckline. 

 

My deadlines are creeping up on me.  The next part of the cross stitch SAL is due 10/20 and the FMQ Challenge and Treasure Chest QAL are due 10/31.  And yes, I will get them all done.  And I will do them all nicely.
