Working on a Christmas wall-hanging. This is a pattern from Sweet Pea Machine Embroidery. I couldn’t resist. This is the top 2 panels out of 5 (I think). That is my naughty kitty at the top, Gracie and the second little guy is supposed to be my daughter’s, Grendel.

Here is the third block in process. I am having a lot of fun with it but it does take a long time to stitch out. I am determined to get it finished this weekend though- at least the stitch out part. Then I will have to get it put together still.

Here is my Gracie. She is actually not very naughty, but she is quite anti-social. It was a lovely surprise to see her downstairs on this lazy morning when the dogs were in bed as I awaited a friend’s arrival.

I did manage a little stitching this week. My local quilt guild works with the woodworker’s guild to create doll beds, with quilts/blankets, and a little stuffed animal, for donation to kids at Christmas. I heard that we still needed a large number of quilts for this project, so I managed to get 6 made.

I am still working on this Christmas quilt as well. No updated picture but I am working on getting the rows and borders sewn together. Not sure it will be done by the holidays, but I am slowly making progress.
