What's a book that you loved as a kid that nobody seems to read or even remember now?

This one's been on my mind a lot lately.

I finished making a stuffed dragon and used the scraps to make a matching quilt block! There will eventually be 12 of these, one for each month (this is the 5th I've finished), with the quilt blocks getting turned into a lap quilt.

Saturday night and this morning, I cut and pieced the scraps from my ice dragon into a matching snowflake quilt block. I've made a 12-inch block with the scraps from each dragon, and when I've done all 12 I'll assemble them into a lap quilt.

Virtual quilt retreat over! On Saturday I spent some time hand-quilting my dragon quilt (pattern adapted from cross-stitch design "Dragon Rampant" by Teresa Wentzler). Picture is from before I layered it with the batting and back, because a close-up of the quilting doesn't look like much yet.

First goal of this weekend's virtual quilt retreat accomplished: I finished making this little ice dragon. I'm working on a series of 12, one for each month; this one is January. I'm hoping to get the matching quilt block done tomorrow, but today I'm focusing on hand-quilting a bed quilt.
