As 2014 draws to a close, I am intent on finishing things.
I did get my quilts finished for Christmas, one for my daughter, and one for my DIL.
The first one, for my daughter was made from "Elementary" by Moda. It is a jelly roll quilt, and goes together nicely. I love the colours in this, and fortunately , so does she!
Elementary has lots of print, and formulas in the patterns, it is pretty cool.
The bigger quilt (and now I remember why I dont make them this big very often!!) was a very simple summer quilt for my son and DIL. It is mostly white, with a feature of bricks of "Field Guide" across the foot.
Sorry the picture here is not very good, I had to take it quickly before I gave it away, it is very large and it was so cold I couldn't go outside for a photo shoot!
The other gifts I posted about were all well received as well. We had a wonderful Christmas time, I hosted Christmas dinner for 24 people.....lots of family, lots of food, lots of noise! And now we have a few days of quiet up at our lake cabin....lots of snow!
It was -32 C. yesterday, but today is warmer, so I might even venture out for some playtime in the snow!
Happy New Year everyone! I have the champagne chilling now :)

ReplyDeleteYour quilts are really lovely. Enjoy your time at your cottage. So pretty with the snow.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine feeling warmer at -5 than -32! Being Australian we don't get temps that low, so I don't know how you feel the difference!
