I am working on my christmas sewing projects:

1. I have 4 small grandchildren and 6 small great neices & nephews to make "I Spy" quilts for (5 completely done right now, 2 quilt tops done, too).
2. I have 2 patchwork lap quilt tops done ready for borders & backing.

3. I have squares cut for 5 more patchwork lap quilts.

4. I have all the pieces cut for my quilted drapes for my living room slider & dining room window, it is a sampler consisting of the following blocks: variable star, card trick, rocky mountain puzzle, windblown square, diamond star, album, peace & plenty and prairie queen. I have 1/4 of the squares done).

5. Finishing my new sewing room so I will be more productive.

That's it for now, hopefully I will get these done by Thanksgiving so I can move on to a new project.

Ummmm the last of the 2008 tax returns!!!

Oh, quilting....... I have a charity quilt to quilt on so I can turn it in next month, and a quilt that I am fighting with to finish the quilting.

Getting all my pre-op stuff done I can before I fly to Maui for a week. :)

Sorry..... DH and I only :) :)

This was supposed to be for our 25th wedding annevesary, which was 4 1/2 years ago. We have planned this trip for 7 years now. I'm pretty excited about leaving next tuesday!!!

I am having some shoulder issues which will prevent us from doing some of the things we wanted to do, like ride bikes down the volcano and other things (hense surgery in November)

k3n - Thanks so much for the compliment on the autumn... after I got all those border pieces sewed on I realized I sewed my N in autumn on upside down..... still bothers me.. but I wasn't pulling all of it apart. I hate when that happens !
The brown will look great as a purse .. when I can find the pattern :? Maybe quilt gnomes come in and move things or steal them.. I can't be that disorganized :D

Have a great time and soak up some sun for all of us!!!! Enjoy yourself even if you can't do some of the things you want.

Can you explain this? What does hanging it on a clothesline have to do with sandwiching? Is this something I need to do? Thanks!

Nope, not for you. I have a whirly I use for clothes drying, craft project drying and quilt basting.
