TIS finished

Tis the Season done

backing

ready for Christmas
My Tis' the Season only needs the binding hand stitched down - this will be done tonight watching TV, think it might be some sort of sport or a movie.
Now while I'm sewing I have to make a sit me up donut by Paula Storm for number 2 grand daughter who is  6 and half months old and a quilt for number 3 grand daughter who was born last Sunday. Her quilt is going to be a simple charm pack of Lollipop by Sandy Gervais sewn together

Don't you love hand sewing binding. It is relaxing, means the end is near & you will soon be displaying a fantastic finished quilt. Looks great! Tracee xx
