Finished (or not) Friday

I'm ready for Saturday Sampler tomorrow . . . with all of the large applique all stitched down with a grey thread and blanket stitch. 

There are several whole Dresden Plate blocks, plus a half and a couple of quarter plate blocks.  This was much more time consuming this month compared to previous months.  But it's good to have them done in time for Saturday Sampler.

And there are several large snowflakes also stitched down.  I'm glad I went with the blanket stitch on these even though all the turns and twists made it slow going. 

Farm Girl Vintage should be done in the next day or so.  I'm currently hand stitching and close to turning the corner for the last side of the binding.  This will be a good one to check off the UFO list as it's big - and has been languishing for several years.  

I'm still trying to have some discipline, and not begin anything new until more on-going projects are done.  TRYING is the key word of course.  In my cleaning/reorganizing efforts I came across another "nearly" done project.  It's a small table topper made with 1" strips.  All it needed was a back, batting, and quilting.  Stay tuned . . . it's sandwiched now, so maybe I'll get this one done this month too.
