The Grinch Christmas Quilt

Just picked it up from Quilted Works--love it! The quilter chose clear thread which was much better than a colored thread. It was a perfect choice!
This is the back of the quilt
Now I just have to bind it and it will be ready for next Christmas.

My Sewing Room

I had a big sewing/craft room that I just loved, but I had to condense it into a room half the size because my son moved home. Sigh. I loved that room! Now that Christmas is over and my moving around is over I hope to get my sewing groove back and finish up a few quilts plus start some new ones.

Before all the moving and rearranging I wasn't totally lazy:

The top of my Grinch quilt was finished before Christmas and I just need to put one more strip on the back side and it will be ready to quilt.

The quilt for my boss just needs binding and it will be completed. The quilting was done by Lynn White, who finished it a couple days before Christmas, but with all the moving and present unwrapping I just couldn't finish it.

I'm working on a Madame Samm project that fortunately has been moved from February to April. I should be able to find my sewing machine by then.
