    Red face What is under your needle?

    I am doing the Bonnie Hunter mystery quilt and there is a new clue each week. I dont want to start something that will take up a lot of my time so I need suggestions on what you do in between working on something like that. I have made hanging sleeves for all my projects that I have, finished up UFOs and really need to know what to work on.
    What is under your needle right now?

    I've got a baby quilt to quilt and bind, a table runner that needs the same, a lap quilt that I have to sandwich and quilt, and I've decided to make sports bras for my nieces for Christmas - and I need to get an idea for my sister and get that done. Let's see how much I can get done before the next clue comes out.

    i'm making chapstick holders, I lost the sizes chart and am just making it a little at a time, it should be easier, there so little, I made one yesterday, and the tube just fits, I did put her name on it, two sisters are forever putting their tubes down and losing them,

    I'm working on a pretty pastel/spring Churn Dash quilt. And, in between, stitching up some Christmas ornaments. And, quilting a lap size Christmas quilt. And, If that's not enough, Throw in a couple of quilted postcards. Still have a few things to finish before Christmas.

    Well, I just changed my bobbin, so liturally speaking, nothing, LOL

    I'm doing the Bonnie Hunter MQ too. If I finish any of the clues early I have a scrappy log cabin quilt I'm working on that I can pick up. I'm not even looking at my UFOs right now!

    A valance.....Just finished up my gal pal gifts for this weekend. Need to finish the valance (GS Christmas present) then unfortunately everything needs to be packed up and put away. My dining room is my sewing room, and with the holidays coming the two just can't mix. I'll still be able to cut and prep, but not much else!!

    I am machine embroidering kitchen towels for little additions to christmas gifts. I had ordered some towels from colonial embroidery company with the stripes and they are coming out so cute. I am using the christmas critters program.

    Tomorrow will be company and candy making with a very dear, long time friend who moved to california.

    Nothing right now. I did some mending this week and I have a couple of things I could do but I am just not feeling like it. One is measure and get a big border put on a finished top and the other is sandwich a queen size quilt for FMQ.

    I'm working on Bonnie's mystery quilt too. While I'm working on the weekly clues I use a leader/ender that are the border units for a baby quilt, so far I have 6 of the units done and I'm almost finished with clue #2.
