December Goal Party – A Lovely Year of Finishes

Well, we made it! It is now December. Thirty-one days and we can kiss 2013 good-bye!  I have one very simple goal for December, to finish up Christmas presents. I am giving 2 quilts this year, both to two very special people, neither of whom have a clue!  The first is the one I finished last month. The second was quilted was quilted by Vicki from Orchid Owl Quilts. She did such an amazing job. All that is left is to trim it up and bind it. The hard part will be trimming it because…IT IS HUGE! It fits on my queen sized bed.

November Mid-Month Check In – A Lovely Year of Finishes

Welcome to the middle of November! Did the middle of the month sneak up on you too? I just don’t understand where this month has gone. I got my sewing machine back and I have been quilting away, but I think I might start piecing solely on my new Featherweight. I just love that machine (even more now that my hubs oiled and lubed it!).

I have made great progress on my goal and just have a bit more left to go. I’m not sure if the recipient of this quilt reads my blog but I can’t put up a full picture just yet.

Your turn! How is your goal progressing along?

 You can link up here or with Shanna, no need to link up twice.
