Projects get completed for gift giving...

qD....

Photos of  Door Banner for Christmas and actually a wall hanging, but I made them into table runners.

These items were done for 8 family and friends as Christmas gifts this year.  I finished the last stitch on the runner for myself at 12:04am Christmas Day.

Here are some sweatshirt jackets that I made for my best two girlfriends and me.  Denise is a quilter and she is on the right. I'm in the middle and Arlene on the left.  Arlene is learning to do quilting, but prefers to paint.  She is good at it and also has been my best friend since 1956 and she was my Maid of Honor.  Denise was a Bridesmaid.  

Smoky actually got some quilting done too ....

DS's girlfriend gets a table center...

And DS gets a "tree skirt" - diamond log cabin style - mom (Smoky) quilted a project DS started 7 years ago!!!  He was taking the sewing classes in Jr. High.  Then life got busy and the tree skirt sat in our closet.

AND a wall hanging for a very new and very good friend in Holland!  Yvonne also wrote a letter to a Dutch magazine "Libelle" and they printed it in the "Beste" section at the beginning of the year!  It explains how we met thru the internet - and then DH and I stayed with them and how our friendship continues like we've known each other all our lives!!

I just completed my baby Jane top. I still have to quilt it but I wanted to share my results of a fun 3 years!
