I'm getting grumpy, as I started four quilts for my staff, and had the brilliant idea to do QAYG.. Never again!!!.. I really want to start on my next quilt which will be a story quilt, but I am too disciplined to start on something before I finish what I have. I designed the story quilt, and am following a lot of the ideas from Mary Lou Weidman. Can't wait, so I am working like a demon to finish the others..

I'm in. I am going to be busy cutting out pattern pieces for two stuffed Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. The pattern came as a panel from my LQS, and they are going to be tricky to cut out. They will end up being Christmas gifts for my two dear little nephews.
I also need to start cutting out pieces for an apron for my best friend. That'll be her Christmas present. Good luck today everyone!

Wow, 28 minutes to piece together on ornament. This may take a while. At least I know the pattern will work. Just waiting for the glue to dry. Eating a little lunch then back to it. Starting to get sleepy. The weather here is turning cold and the furnace is not up and ready for winter yet so the chill in the house makes me want to nap. Oh well, plenty of time for sleeping later.

Otis, congrats on the new member of the family.
Frenchfryqueen, once done with those Rudolphs feel free to make another and send my way. I love stuffed animals for under my tree to occupy that empty space until Santa arrives. LOL

Update: Got Abby's (my tabby cat) little blankie put together and am ready to quilt. I think I'll do a simple stitch-in-the-ditch to make fast work of it. It's been getting chilly here at night, and this coming week is supposed to be even colder. She's cold-natured, so I'm sure she'll appreciate having this to snuggle up in.

I'm in for a day of sewing, I need to stitch the binding on something for my SS and then need to finish tatting some ornaments for a swap. When finished with that then some scraps are calling for assembling into blocks. DH is playing in his Man Cave today. Will check back with pictures latter.

Well no pics yet of my stuff. Glue still drying on the four ornaments. changed my mind on one of the rugrugs and decided to do a small wallhanging instead. All appliques cut out and ready to go on. Neck getting stiff from looking down for so long now so time to take a medium length break. Dh made it home finally for lunch so gonna talk to him for a bit, then back to it once he leaves at 4 to go back to work. Dedemac and Nessie, you two sure do get around dont you. Watch everyone, they have come to drag us down to this bottom of the hole. LOL
Cant wait to see how everyone stuff comes out.

Well I am in. I have spent the morning watching football and playing with D9P for a baby quilt. My first D9P so we will see what I get. Also need to finish putting the binding on a quilt for DGD. Have fun.
