December - and 2020 - in the rear view mirror

I wanted to finish out 2020 on some positive notes so I set some "happy" goals for the month.  No large, complicated projects were on this month's list. And there are plenty of cheerful colors!  Some of these goals will just roll right into the new year. 

  • Saturday Sampler - December sections - DONE
  • Gingerbread wall hanging top assembly - rolling over into 2021
  • Harry Potter pillowcases (3) - rolling over into 2021
  • CLEAN cutting station! - partially done
  • Pick a PIG - Gnome winter table runner - flimsy is done, but needs blanket stitching
  • Quilt, bind & finish the following small projects
    • Boo bench pillow (envelope back & bind) - DONE
    • Pine Tree Point wall hanging - DONE
    • both Winter Moose table runners - rolling over into 2021
    • 2nd Blue Snowflake runner - rolling over into 2021
  • cut out 2 Simple Whatnots projects - rolling over into 2021
  • additional blocks for on-going projects
    • 10 Unity blocks - DONE with Round 3 completely
    • 4 Diamond Tile blocks - only 3 blocks are DONE
    • 5 Wisdom blocks - DONE
    • frame 4 gingham blocks - DONE
    • 4 Blossom Time blocks - 8 blocks DONE 
Like many in 2020 I had a lot more time to sew, and finished more projects -both old and new - than usual during this year.  The photo at the top is some of the quilts I finished this year.  I donated a couple, gifted a few, and kept some.  But it's always nice to finish a quilt. I haven't done an accurate count, but know that I finished more than a dozen quilts this year. 


Lots of small items were completed this year too: bags, pillows, pillow cases, wall hangings, and table runners.  And masks - can't forget the masks!!  

Happy New Year!  What will 2021 bring?

These all look like great finishes. Here's hoping you'll have time to sew more in 2021.
