November Finishe

Last month I finished a table topper that I had started September of 2011.  I actually had made two but couldn't get the other one finished last month.....BUT, I am happy to report that topper number two is now complete (pictured on top)!!!!!  Thanks again Wendy and Dawn.....now on to helping our group reach our goal of 500 finishes for the year!!!!

Finish 15,16, and 17: Hay Bale, Ornaments, and Halloween

I Finished!  I started this quilt over 1 1/2 years ago and worked on it whenever there was time.  This quilt is for me and I usually have hard time finishing things for myself.  It's a large lap quilt and it will be great to snuggle under while reading.

The pattern is Edyta Sitar's Hay Bale.   I had Dan do the quilting for me - He does such beautiful work!  Look at the detail he quilted on each block - I never can figure out which pattern would work best and Dan and Joyce always manage to pick out just the right one -Thanks!

I also finished a couple of ornaments that must have been started over 10 years ago...it's amazing what you can find in a basement - there's enough to keep me busy for years.

 

 

Last but not least I finished a Halloween pattern I picked up over three years ago.  I traced the applique and started to collect fabric and then it was lost(?) in the basement.  It's bright and really brightens my door.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

 

 

Christmas Hexies........ #16 done....

These were started to be ready for last Christmas!! 

Little stitcheries surrounded by Christmassy fabric....

and a couple of multicoloured tea-time ones for fun....

Some of these will be decorations - others will be coasters....

It feels so good to have another UFO completed... thanks Dawn and Wendy for the prompting.....

I keep my different projects in bags or boxes

..... nice when they are empty again...

G'day
