I finally put the border on my quilt, “A Quilter’s Journey” designed by Leanne Beasley. I’m not sure why it took me so long–I actually finished this quilt at the end of May. I’m still trying to decide whether or not to hand quilt this one; it’s not a really big quilt, so I just might tackle the hand-quilting in January.
I finished the October block from Lynette Anderson…just in time, since the November one should be coming out soon. I love these little blocks; the animals have such fun “personalities!”
Since I was in the stitching mode, I started on some little Christmas stitcheries. They will be made into the cutest little Christmas bags–I can’t wait to get them finished!
And I made this little set for a friend, a matching bag and basket, perfect for putting little things in!
My project list is long this week, so hopefully I’ll soon have some more fun things to share!

Sherri, I love the quilt. It has so many different “looks” in it. Very nice. I can’t wait to come over tomorrow!
Carol says
Your Quilter’s Journey is just wonderful…oh and the basket (I must try one of those) and the bag…I love it, but it has a zipper and that just scares me to death. What a nice treat for a friend.

I would definetly go for handquilting on Leannes…I did on both of mine and I just love how it matches with all the stitcheries… :o)
Hmmm…this bag pops up at so many blogs… love your colourchoice of it…maybe I have to get a go on this one… ;o)

Wonderful treats for a friend. And, the Christmas stitcheries are oh so cute.
I love your “Quilter’s Journey” quilt. I finished mine last year and it’s still in the ‘need to be quilted’ pile. I’ve been thinking about starting “Leanne’s House” soon.
