Finished a couple Christmas aprons yesterday. Have had this project in my stash for far too many years with good intentions when purchased. Glad to have them finished.

Since I live just across the border in Michigan, a friend & I decided to attend Quilt Canada in Toronto. Loved the classes. Lots of lovely quilts.

Here’s a 15-year-old UFO I finished last summer. Bubbles & Blooms is a fabric line I used in a guild brown bag block challenge. Funny how our tastes change. I loved these colors and the fabric line when I started this quilt. Now, not so much. Maybe that’s why it’s so difficult to finish UFO’s.

Recent finishes - two baby quilts for great-nieces, a project bag, and a large tote bag.

My favorite band of the electric light parade.

I was one of 40,000 who descended upon Michigan’s capital for Silver Bells in the City last night: electric light parade, Christmas tree lighting, drone light show, and fireworks.

I attended International Quilt Festival in Houston, Texas for the first time and enjoyed it immensely. Ran into Sue Nickels, whose quilt Flowerland won a ribbon for appliqué. Got to listen to Ricky Tims talk quilting and play the piano.
