I took advantage of the long holiday weekend to get a start on my planned Christmas gifts. I was on a roll and finished 2 of my planned 4 quilt tops. They are around 60" square and what I like to call couch quilts. This was actually the first projects made on my new Juki TL-2000 QVP mini and I am really enjoying the machine.

Originally I planned to make matching house quilts for everyone, but I got the first 3 houses finished and realized I didn't want to make another 61. Instead, I just picked a few blocks that I wanted to make and made multiples, then slapped them together. When the width wasn't what I wanted, I padded it with sashes and borders. You can also see that one of the original houses I made actually made it into the first top. Poor thing is wonky and off scale, but I felt bad not including it.

Has anyone else started making Christmas gifts?

Thanks for looking!
