Christmas Stroll has been finished for a couple of weeks - it's a very quick, easy quilt to make and works well with lots of scraps as well as bigger stash pieces of fabric.
Karen used a new quilting design called "Decorations" and it looks lovely.
Sarah quilted H's "Dinosaurs" quilt and the smaller quilt - they look great (and still need binding). I'll give H's quilt to the sub-contractor to sew down the binding.
No patchwork happening at the moment - some Christmas sewing (ornaments for the little ones) and lots of dressmaking. A "Selina" (Style Arc pattern) top for me.
A "Selina" top for a friend in some Liberty cotton she sent to me.
"Blair" (Style Arc pattern) blouse for Jenni.
A "Blair" blouse for Elizabeth.
And a "Blair" dress for Jenni.
A "Melba" (Style Arc pattern) for me. I'm not happy with the way the neck sits on me so I've unpicked it to cut it down a little. I love this fabric.
The house was decorated in time for Mum's 94th birthday lunch with all the family (except for the tree).

Peta and the grandchildren decorated the tree on Saturday - it was a fun afternoon. Mum was there too.
