A Christmas hello

Since my last post, a little over two weeks ago, I haven't really accomplished much .  I have been basically working on whatever projects I feel like, doing lots of Christmas shopping and decorating, working on several projects but not finishing many.   I decided last September that I wasn't going to make any handmade gifts for Christmas this year, keep the stress level down, and I stuck to it, mostly.  I did make a Christmas stocking as a gift ,


and a tea cozy for my niece.


Once the Christmas hubbub is over with, my plan is to work full out to get some pieced tops quilted. 100 snow days ought to do it!  

I don't have much to show you but I do want to wish you a very Merry Christmas and all the best in 2016.  This past year has been amazing for me and I am hoping the coming year will be even better. 

Hope you had time to do some quilting today!
