Working hard

 

I managed to find a spot for the quilt ladder - it's in the dining area of my kitchen.  I don't have any empty walls in the living room and this way I can still see it from my chair in the living room!  Put Christmas quilts on it for now!

And, I spent time in the sewing studio today and got the borders on this quilt and have the binding made.  Next time I'll piece the backing - which I managed to buy last week - and put it on the longarm -- which I have not used in more than a month, I think.  Probably forget how to turn it on! Anyway, it felt good to work on something today.  I'm also doing some knitting -- I have a kid's hat I'm working on -- it'll be a donated one.  I started the Yowza shawl from Miss Babs yarn site too -- it is going very fast since it's just garter stitch mostly.

I want to finish the kid's hat before the end of the year because I want to start making adult size hats next year to be donated to the homeless of course.  I'm also thinking I'll be working on using stash fabrics to make a few more homeless quilts next year -- but not under any pressure.  I'll just keep them here until someone needs them.

If I remember, I'll keep track on the right side of my blog page of things I've finished next year.

Until next time...blessings.
