I am still in the process of knitting scarves for Christmas gifts.
I have the one in the picture to finish yet, then make one with the brown skein.
I've not made anymore progress with my QAL of the Penny Patch quilt.
Sadly I have had to put that aside until I get all of my Christmas crafts made. Yep, that's what I get for getting such a late start on them.
Forgive me for showing you pictures of things that I have completed over this past week:
A cute cat and a bed for her. I wrote a review of the book this is out of if you would like to check it out: Fill Your House With These Crafty Creatures.
Pillowcases for my son and his girlfriend. I am picking up fabric today at the quilt shop when I am at the needlers group this afternoon. I still need to make a set for my oldest daughter and her boyfriend.
This wall hanging I bought as an unfinished project from the member's booth at our guild's quilt show last July. I have now finished it and it will be a gift for my mom.
OMG! This is the best job I've done on binding corners. They look awesome.
I have worked here and there this week on getting projects in to their own bags. Once I get that done, I am going to make a written list for my bulletin board and then also list those projects each week here on my blog as well.

Here we are with Christmas day only 2 weeks away! I have so many projects that I yet need to get sewn up for gifts!
On the Penny Patch quilt for the QAL, I do have it sandwiched and pinned. Now I need to see if I can figure out how to do the dogwood quilting. I sure like that that looks.
This is not a current picture but I am still working on knitting scarves for Christmas gifts. Since taking this picture a couple of days ago I have finished the one with the skein on yarn laying there and started on the other one with the teal yarn.
Yesterday was the monthly sewing day at church. This is the progress on the quilt that I am currently working on. I am actually going to finish this one all by myself because I am doing it in quilt as you go. I hope to have it finished by the end of next month's sewing day.
I was able to get some work done on making my yo-yo's while my youngest daughter was at the doctor and while we visited my middle daughter this past week. Unfortunately I left my yo-yo box at my middle daughter's house. I don't think I would have taken another picture though as I am still just making them with the fabric in my box and then will start putting the table runner together.
I didn't get any applique bunnies done this past few weeks at home, but I do have stitch group this afternoon. I had hoped to have them done and to get to spend this afternoon squaring up the blocks. Such is life though! I will applique on them today and then next Wednesday and hopefully then next month to start squaring them up.
This past week I did a review lens on on Squidoo for a book called Crafty Creatures. You can click to check it out if you would like. It will open in a new window: Fill Your Home With These Crafty Creatures. I will be making the cat's bed, along with the cat, that I show at the bottom of my lens for my 2 yr old granddaughter. She's going to love it! I hope to make lots of of the projects in the book as well.

Christmas is getting closer. Here is my progress on the knitted scarves. I am not sure how many I am making.....6 or 7 I think.
Some time ago I started working on making yo-yo's. I keep this box in the car and work on them here and there. I have been taking them in to my quilt guild meeting and working on them there for the past 3 months. I am wanting to make a table runner for our coffee table. I did start on it but decided I wanted to make the yo-yo's that I could out of the fabric I had put in the box first. You can see that I have a lot in the bag ready.
I see that some sell the yo-yo's by themselves on etsy. I'm thinking I might try that too at some point.
The top should be done for the Penny Patch QAL but I didn't work on it for a week once Thanksgiving hit. I have my top half way to being completed.

First of all, let me with everyone a
Happy Thanksgiving!
Next up is a finish. It's been a very long time since I've actually finished anything quilting wise.
This is my Log Cabin wall hanging. I can see myself going on a log cabin craze, and I do want to make it with the one inch strips next. Plus, I am truly going to use scraps so it won't be all the same. I look forward to starting it, but do have to think Christmas gifts right now too.
Next up is my progress with the Penny Patch QAL. I have 4 rows together---8 to go. Busy long weekend ahead with family and Christmas decorating but I still hope to get progress made on it.
I have a start on the knitted scarves that I am making for Christmas gifts. Since taking this picture I did finish this one except putting on the tassels. Next up is the other skein there. I am just buying one skein at a time and testing different fancy yarns along the way.
