Vintage Postcard

A new embroidery project -- it will be a pillow in a few days.  I have to add the borders and finish just a little bit on the top.  I hadn't marked fabric or done embroidery in a long time so I'm hoping the next one is traced a little better and my stitches are more even.  I think embroidery is my favorite thing to do!

Progress

I finished a quilt top from the Jelly Roll Quilts book.  It's called "Garden Trellis."  For me, this was a new way of cutting the blocks and it was fun.  I have the backing piece and might get that done today so it can go to the quilter soon.

The Redwork Christmas is a total finish with the binding added.  I can't wait until December to hang it.

Friday night and yesterday were marathon sewing events here and I made great progress on my next top.  Now to cut all those sewn-together strips into blocks and start sewing again.  I'm really excited about this one and hope to have it put together quickly.

Fall Placemats Done - Almost

Fall placemats that still need the opening stitched and then some some stitch-in-the-ditch to finish them off.

GFG Progress

Progress to date on my Grandmother's Flower Garden

These blocks were purchased from Ebay a few years back and I got them assembled into a top.  Had a hard time getting perfect seam matching but finally got it together.  If I had it to do over again, I would have taken it to a class and had them help me with getting it put together better.  Next time!

Happy New Year
