Now for the cream...

Here are the little raspberries finished in their little quilt top - ready for the countdown to Christmas. All they need is cream on top (i.e. I will machine quilt this little wallhanging).

Still, no rush, that could happen next year! Nahhh. Of course I want to finish it, but I also want to finish off a few other projects.

Last year I finished 28 quilty projects (more if you count each individual journal cover and beaded bracelets and button necklaces).

This year I have 17 finished items on the sidebar so far... now it's a race to see how many I can finish before the end of the year (you know I can't help starting more too)...

Almost there...

The Little Tailfeather quilt just needs a green border before it goes to Mum to be quilted.

I decided not to stay up overly late the other night... I was already too tired.

After all it only means that I get it back one week later... and what's a week in the scheme of things?

I am just so inspired all the time!! I want to start so many new projects!

First, I want to put the binding on my dollhouse quilt, and finish the little Santa piece for the Countdown to Christmas. I am actually writing this post a couple of days before it is published, so I will have the countdown finished for the 1st of December when I put my decorations up at home. YAY!!

Just teething

Well, hasn't this come together quickly?
I've got some more teething to do (it's a sawtooth border - gettit??)... Then it just needs a quick quilting job, and binding. I can't wait to hang it up -I am looking forward to decorating my house for Christmas!!

Fruits of labour

These blocks are now fully grown and ripefor piecing - ready to add as the border to the Little Tailfeather quilt centre.These fabrics look so juicy!! No wonder I like these so much - these are the colours of my blog. Look at the font and surrounds. LOL!!

I hope to get the border added and the quilt top finished tonight and give it to Mum for quilting tomorrow. YAY!! I want to sneak a couple more finishes to my 2009 finished list before the end of the year...

The last raspberry

This is the last stitchery block from the raspberry cream pattern. This is an Angel... and she still has her halo!

I really enjoyed adding a second colour to the stitcheries to add a different accent on each little picture.

Here are 3 of the stitcheries... Rudy has gone walking.... LOL!!!

More raspberries please

Even though they are not rabbits, they are multiplying just like them!!

It's because I love stitcheries!! And these are so easy to do...

These are more from the raspberry cream pattern...

Awww... too cute for words!!

One more stitchery to go, then I need to put them together into a little wallhanging.

Only half grown

These little blocks are going to be the border around the centre of the Little Tailfeather quilt.

There are 24 blocks, but these are only half grown. They all need another round of log cabin before they are "ripe".

Well... they do look good enough to eat!! The colours remind me of Summer fruit (I have been eating peaches and nectarines... yum!!).
