#26 Holiday Sewing....

So I am now doing 2 more quilt alongs, both Christmas!! Which got me in the mood to start making my Christmas presents too!! Which means I will hopefully stay on task and get everything done well in advance. (I have a huge smile on my face right now, because I know I can be easily distracted by  new interesting quilt projects I might stumble apon....)
Count Down to Christmas

Modern Trees QAL


What I've Been Up To:

over half way through the City Sampler Blocks




Making 3  table runners...2 fall with Halloween disappearing nine patch blocks for the back side, and 1 with Halloween and another celebration on the back. Trying to decide between Valentine's Day or Birthday.




And I loaded the baby quilt, finally found the right thread....but still waiting for the bobbins to arrive. [They sent the wrong size!! boo :(   ]
