I had one day when DD came down that I didn't get my sewing done.
She had a doctor's appointment and then we went to the Lavender Farm.
It was a nice break.

Quilting is more fun than Housework has us working on scraps.

These were made from smaller than FQ sizes.

T-shirt quilt

I've finally figured out the columns, or at least thing I did.
I've sewn two together and working on the third.
That second column needs additional shirts that I want to make sure I've got the right size.
I ran out of stabilizer on the last two shirts.
So, it was a trip to JoAnn's to get it and have lunch.

Snowflake postcards



I digitized snowflakes for my two partners.
It is interesting that the names which are smaller make more snowflaky snowflakes. LOL


 

Gifts

Our New Braunfels Area Quilt Guild had a Secret Santa swap.
This is what Camilla sent me.
I LOVE these colors.
Thank you!
I'm in a monthly pincushion swap and this is what I received for November from Olga.
I think she was very creative to make the clip holder flange for this.
Thank you.

I sewed every day this week, but it was a challenge for me.
I'm not sure why, but the cedar count is up in Texas, so that could explain it.
I'm hoping this coming week is better for my motivation.

Quilting is more fun than Housework has us working on scraps.

 
So, this is what the entire quilt looks like
 
This is the finished bound quilt without a place to photograph it.

Design Wall Monday

   I'm linking to


The only thing I've done on this one is to get the design in the right order.
But, the Mom wants to make it smaller, so she is coming over to remove some shirts.
I'll wait to stabilize until that is done.

The Christmas trees were a class from the Vermont Quilt Festival.
Kimberly Einmo had a great class that I really enjoyed.

The John Deere panel will be made into a baby quilt. 

Lucky 7 is quilted and bound.
I love this quilt. 

The pineapple quilt is ready to trim and bind.

Pincushion

As part of a swap, I made a stocking pincushion.
