Time For Another Post

Well, it has been almost a week since my last post so I figured it was about time for another one. Not alot going on here on the quilty side. I have been working a little on and off on handquilting this quilt. Just mostly while watching tv in the evenings with the family. I take these spells sometimes...sometimes I will sew constantly and other times not at all.

Also, I have been working on a few yo-yo's for our Christmas project that we are doing in Quilt Guild. We are making a yo-yo ornament. Our party is December 8th and it should be lots of fun, I will have to take my camera.

I have been thinking alot today about several quilting projects that I have going on. I have several that I would like to finish up before the end of the year. With the holidays coming up I will not get to sew as much, but I hope to work on these...

~ Sew all of the Love Letter blocks together
~ Sew binding on my Carpenter's Star quilt
~ Sew binding on Green Yellow Brick Road
~ Work on handquilting Scrappy Triple Irish Chain
~ Finish Diagonal Nine Patch blocks

and also work on these quilts along the way, but there is no way they will be finished for a while, I guess you could say they are my long term projects...

~ Summer Pond Applique
~ Civil War Diary Quilt
~ Nearly Insane blocks

And between all of this...Thanksgiving Dinner and Christmas Shopping!!! :) Mom has to work through Thanksgiving so dinner will be made by me and my sister! And we will have dinner here at my house! Thank goodness that Chantal is a good cook so she will be lots of help. Mom had to work last Christmas so we didn't get to see her until January but this year she is off through Christmas! So it will be nice to have the family all home. And of course we will have our new addition this year, my brothers new baby, Gabe. He is around 3 weeks old!!
