What a cute little Christmas quilt. I love the appliques. I ought to do something like that so it will fulfil my desire to do something Christmasy and have a quick finish.
The dress quilt reminds me of my mother who made all my clothes as I was growing up. It's a sweet memory.
I love the little Halloween cross stitch piece. It's really cute and festive without being scary - just perfect.
The fabric in the picture with the batting is really pretty. What line is the middle piece? I'd like to look it up. Really nice post.
I love your baskets--they look so vintage--really nice work
on these; and your Christmas quilt all finished--congrats on doing that--a finish always feels so good...
nice fabric stash enhancements, too..love that blue fabric with the rosey circles...hugs, Julierose
My, you are a busy lady. Well done on your finishing of the Christmas quilt; it is lovely. The dress quilt is darling. Love all those pretty dresses. Enjoy your hand stitching today.
Wow! What a super busy month you have planned! But I know handcrafts can be relaxing. Remember to breathe!
Lovely finishes for Sept and some nice projects to work on for this month...
Same nice purchases and I look forward to seeing the sweet cardigans and beanies you knit..
Great finishes... and how fun to get out shopping with a friend. I was at JoAnn Fabric Store on Friday last and was amazed how much quilting fabric they had. I was looking for a wide back and they didn't have much in the colors I was looking for but I settled for one. And, yep, many of the fabrics were $10 to $12 a yard. They aren't as nice as quilt stores but are more reasonable with coupons.
I really like what you've done with the dresses. I prefer the version with the matching corner stones. And I never met a basket I didn't like. I have a basket quilt that is waiting to be quilted. I'm getting back in the swing of things finally, so maybe soon?
You've been busy! The Dresses look great and the Christmas quilt turned out beautifully. The Halloween stitchery is perfect for the season. Good luck with your October OMG. Going with the flow is probably wise, it's probably going to be a mad dash to the finish of 2020.
