A small finish...

 It is only small, and all that was left to do was the stitching around the outside edge..done...a little ornament from Marg Low's Christmas Book.

                                             

Determined!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am determined to get back on track with finishing UFO's.  Now I did make some of these for last Christmas, but I have several that have been cut out for a loooong time waiting to be sewn.  So last night I whipped up two fast and easy Christmas table runners.  Not big projects but done projects.  I am very happy to report two finishes for January 2014!!!!

My first finish for the year!

I started this tablerunner in May last year. I've worked on it now and then but it has always been something I had to do first.

But now it's finished and I'm so happy about it!

I'M STILL HERE!

Hi there girls!
I just wanted to pop in and say I actually have a finish!

Well I've had several this year already, but I need to find the photos.

For now though, I have this darling little cot quilt I finished last night for our youngest Grandson Liam.  He is 1 year old on Saturday and it's his Birthday Present.

Now, last year there was only ONE UFO I really wanted to get finished.  It didn't happen.  But already this year I have made enormous steps in getting it finished:

ABOVE:  My Dresden Plate Quilt.  I am up to working on the borders already!  Last year all I had done was the blocks.  They were not even joined.   I can't wait to show the finished quilt!  
That should be in about a month.

Anyway... That's all from me for now.  I hope everyone has had a lovely Christmas and New Year and has come back revving to go.  

Have a Lovely Day!

First 3 finishes

Last year when Dawn shared her pattern for Flirty Squares I started doing the little embroideries which are in the cornerstones.  I chose to finish my quilt using charm packs of Happy Go Lucky.  It has made a gorgeous colourful quilt.  

My other 2 UFO finishes are my Christmas tablecloths which have been languishing in the UFO pile for some years, but are now ready for next Christmas. 

 

The second one is made from the offcut of the bigger one, and is a fitted one for the Grandies to use, hopefully it will be much harder for them to pull off. 

My first Finish for 2014

This is a good start. Last year I only posted my finishes (only about 3 of them) in December but here I am in January with my first finish for the year. Wonder if I can do 14 in 14.

This is my Blue Green Tabletopper which I started around 2009 and then it sat in my ufo pile until it was eventually quilted last October.  The binding was sewn on last week.

If you want to see more photos, including close ups of the quilting, for this finish, please head to my blog Bits 'n Bobs

Sally for Sally

Although this is a project that is one of the newer of my UFOs, it is still six months old.    When we found out that our newest granddaughter was a girl and they were naming her Sally, I knew that I had to make a Sally quilt for her.  This was created using a Dick and Jane panel using a soft flannel backing.  At long last it is finished. 

                                                            

I always include a birth photo on the label for the grandchildren.  The older ones enjoy looking back at their pictures on their quilts.
