It's been a busy weekend
 

[ATTACH=CONFIG]449642[/ATTACH] A little table topper for myself
[ATTACH=CONFIG]449643[/ATTACH]One for my son and DIL. Must do something about the shocking lighting in this house because this is the same fabric as the one above.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]449645[/ATTACH]A pair of these for myself with the scraps from the table toppers. These are wadded and lined with fire retardant cotton so quite substantial items
[ATTACH=CONFIG]449646[/ATTACH] Another tt for my eldest son and DIL. I always struggle with this colour scheme but as purple is Gemma's fav colour I don't have a say in the matter!
[ATTACH=CONFIG]449647[/ATTACH]A little one for my youngest son and DIL. I thought this might appeal to my little grandson. I was experimenting with scissors and folded paper when I decided to follow through using fabric.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]449649[/ATTACH] A teeny tt to use up some squares and try out some more of the messing around with stuff
[ATTACH=CONFIG]449651[/ATTACH]This is the reverse of the other one.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]449652[/ATTACH]And my main task was finishing the borders, quilting and binding this one. Was devastated when I realised I hadn't bought enough of the border fabric to mitre the corners. Was a major headache wondering how on earth I was going to get it finished as there wasn't enough fabric even to square off the border. Had to strip the border down to its different patterns and managed to get it to go all around by inserting small framed panels on each side. The fabric is glorious. I've ordered some more in the cinnamon and black combo and this time I made sure there will be enough border fabric. A learning experience for sure!

Wow! Beautiful work! That quilt is spectacular!

You did all of that this weekend? WOW! Impressive. Everything is wonderful. The little TT's are so cute and the quilt is beautiful.

So very gorgeous work. I love all of it.

busy indeed... nicely done

Not only did you have a busy weekend, but a very productive on as well. All are beautiful.

Nice work-whew you have been busy. I love the aqua and purple quilt. The santas are nice too-very festive. TYhx for sharing.

You do beautiful work! Surely you didn't do all that in one weekend!

WOW what a busy time for you. Beautiful projects!

OMG you certainly know how to make the most of a weekend! Beautiful items.

Thank you! All was made possible because I hired a local Gammill machine to do the quilt. Four hours to quilt instead of four hours struggling to put it all together at home! Would've been tearing my hair out attempting to complete this on the dining room floor.

I love all the work.who was cooking and cleaning? The work fairies

Lol! My other half does all the cooking anyway. He's much better at that than I am. He's off work recuperating from an eye injury so is allocated as chief cook and dog walker. Teenage daughter is currently doing household tasks to earn money towards an expedition to Southern Africa next summer. So with cat charged with licking the dog clean, all bases were covered. Ha ha I will pretend that there wasn't a pile up of dust on the furniture!

That was a truly productive weekend!

WOW what a great job and beautiful quilts. Love them all.

Wow!! You really got a lot done! Great job!!

Rock and roll, girlfriend! You were a quilting beast this weekend. Great job!

All are very nice. Glad you made something for yourself too. Love the quilt colors

A busy weekend indeed. Love it all. I really like the border material and I bet it looks good in the cinnamon and black.

All gorgeous, I was so intrigued with the santa on I had to download and enlarge the picture to see how it was done. Very clever. The last quilt is to die for. Beautiful fabrics and you used them in a perfect way.

You've been busy! Some really awesome work!

My goodness, I think you didn't get much sleep.

Thank you all very much. I'm hoping the black and cinnamon will look good. And no I didn't get much sleep but I enjoyed the weekend. The cutting machine just kept churning out the fabric so felt obliged to do something with it!

You weren't kidding when you said you had a busy weekend! Lovely work.

The quilt is stunning and the other pieces are adorable! Superb job. I think the small framed panels actually add to the uniqueness of the quilt!

Beautiful work!

You surely had a productive weekend! Very pretty quilt.

Fantastic! Love them all!!!

Wow! Terrific projects! You have been really busy!

All are beautiful, great colors.

all are very nice....

wow! nice job

Fantastic!! I have not done that much in the last five months! You are really soaring. Thanks for showing us.

Oh dear ... You put me to shame. I am a slow quilter/sewer. I did finish two table runners and that many pot holders... LOL!

All that funny stuff being said. I love the projects you made. The quilt is so beautiful I love the fabrics so much. The other ones have great fabrics in them too. Such nice Christmas presents.

Wow!!! You have, been busy. Those are fantastic. Love the quilt. Thanks for sharing.

You did that all in a weekend! OMGosh that would take me a month of Sundays. Beautiful qults and TT's. Love the Santa TT.

Everything is really nice. The quilt is gorgeous!

You were one busy gal! The projects are just wonderful, good for you!

Wow you have been busy. They are all spectacular.
