1 Xmas Item A Month January 2015

The weather here is still mostly overcast and dark. I took photos anyway, although as usual I wish they were better.
I hope blogger lets me add them.
Well here they are but I forgot to rotate them!!!
My first attempt at binding the hexagons was appalling but improved with practice. I need to chose my next project for February. Something different, I have seen a cute small wall hanging to applique or a table runner.
Now to check inspiration from others on the 1XIAM blog.

2016 FAL

Now if only I could remember how to do add the logo to this post and my side bar.
One of my quilts to be finished has disappeared into thin air so I am going with less this time.

1, My Temecula mini from a few years ago only needs binding again, I made a mess the first time, I couldn't leave it like that and unpicked it.
I an unable to post pictures, (thanks Blogger) at the moment but will add later.


2. Two Christmas mug rugs need finishing only the fronts hexied.

3. Last years virtual retreat quilt from The Quilt Pattern Magazine. Blocks made, sashing and corner stones cut, borders cut.

As soon as Blogger lets me I'll post pictures.

Everyone is WelcoMe

As soon as I plan to sew, something crops up. So only working on my one Christmas item a month. I am starting off  with a pair of Christmas mug rugs.  Most of my time was taken up with tidying my craft room.
Today yet more tidying, I still can't find a nearly completed quilt. It seems to have disappeared into thin air. I've got to the stage of looking in places I've already checked!!! I'd much rather be sewing.
