Wow, congrats COUNTRYHOUSEQUILTER - 8#, that's fantastic. I'm glad when the scales show my puny 2#. I'll have to really try this month to see if I can match you. What a challenge! I'm leaving Thursday for Atlanta as my BIL died and we're going there to be with sister and for the memorial service on Saturday. There'll be plenty of food everywhere - and I'll really need to keep all of you in my thoughts so I don't overdo it.
Looked through my project stash (different from my fabric stash) and saw 2 for Christmas. One is a flat applique and the other is a pieced Christmas-type panel. Don't know if I'll tackle one, both or none. Make that decision later after Quilt of Valor is completed (need it for a November veterans service) Then maybe I can think about something for me!
Take care, everyone and I'll check in when we return from Atlanta.
