Catching Up on Things

 I turned my back for one second and look who 

decided to hop on my messy desk.  Then he was

afraid to jump down so I had to come to the rescue.

 The last set of matching quilts I donated to a westie rescue auction

made a nice amount for the cause.  As a personal thank

you to the winner I added this festive table runner.

 The process is slow but I started completing a few

 quilt tops I pieced together over the past months.

 This pattern is pretty simple so I gave it a try.

 The kitty-kitty quilt.  My sister is getting

this one to give as a gift.

Derby ... why are you in my way?

 Julep ... why are you in my way?

 The winter theme quilt Julep is laying on will be donated

to a rescue group in Omaha.  The other top is now finished

and was placed in the to be done stack.

The two bristle brush trees are new to my ever
growing tree collection.
By the way, my house is almost done being decorated
for Christmas.  The two pencil trees are up, the fireplace
mantel is done, the silver bells are polished and the
garland on the front porch is in place.  The last thing
on my list is to put up the big tree in the living room.

 Then there is a group in Florida that is having a buy it

now auction for the holidays so I donated 3 of each

table runner to them.

Table runners don't take long to make and it's such

a great way to use up those leftover pieces of fabric.
