Quilts I have finished...



Hope everyone had a great Christmas. We did and now the house is settling down again. Actually it started to settle last night after all the dinner dishes were loaded in the dishwasher and I got to put my feet up. We had a great day with our family and talking to friends and extended family online. What did we all do before facebook and twitter, etc. Ma Bell was our best friend then and we also had more face to face contact.

This is our dog Jake, sometimes he makes
it challenging for me to quilt when
he lays his head near my foot pedal! 
This is a very scrappy quilt
made from left over blocks from
other quilts. This was also
donated to church.
I have been busy working on a variety of things but today I was able to put the binding on a baby quilt (no picture yet until the mom gets it at her shower) and a charity quilt.
.
This is my daughter Carol's black and white quilt. It came out really well and she loves it. I finished this earlier in the year.
This is a 4 patch baby quilt I put the binding on today. I am going to donate this to the homeless mission at our church.


I am also working on the Celtic Mystery from Quiltville http://quiltville.blogspot.com/  My quilt sections are coming along nicely but I ran out of orange so my daughter and I made a quick trip to the fabric store today. From working on this quilt I learned that I have a fairly decent amount of yellows and greens but hardly any orange. I think I am ok for now however. Here are my sections. Tomorrow we get step 5 I can't wait!!!

I hope you have a great night! I am off to find something else to finish. I would like to get some projects done before the new year starts! What will you be working on? Please post pictures and comments. I would love to hear from you!
