More Sewing This Week...

I finished the last of the community quilt QAYG blocks... 20 in total.

Its a Monica Poole design.

Now to join them together...

DD#2 wanted a Christmas Santa Sack for her newest addition.

I made this one in PuRPLe as requested... & its ready for the final applique.

And finally I spent a good few hours stitching around these shapes.

The flimsy for another Community quilt is ready to be quilted on Teena...

Merry Christmas

 If any friends have been wondering why I haven't been blogging or even reading/commenting on blogs for that matter... it's because since late September I've been under the weather. I couldn't shake the "bug" for 8 weeks & then just as I was getting over it I came down with another...(grandies are great at sharing)... nothing serious BuT definitely debilitating to the MoJo.

I'm only telling you now... I'm not looking for sympathy... but I wanted you to all know that I haven't been ignoring you or your blogs...it's why I haven't commented lately.

I've decided to close up the blog & my cubbyhole until 2025... 
I wanted to wish everyone a wonderful holiday season & send my best wishes for the New Year...   See you all then 🎄🎅🤶

Donations...

Using up scraps, I made a few  BooK BaGs  for children in need in shelters.

I had a few "early reader" books on hand so I added them too.

CoMMuNiTy QuiLT

A friend asked me if I could use a panel & some backing to make a quilt. 

I quilted it with butterfly's some time ago & then put aside. This simple 38 x 50 kids panel has now become a quilt that will be donated.

I added the binding at FNwF, not a lot of effort I know... BuT it was all I could manage last night.
