TIME TO START SOMETHING NEW

Hooray,  I did finish the new, improved, big-enough-to-fit sweater from my grandson before they arrived this weekend.

I think you'll agree it looks much cuter on him than on the floor:
With sleeves rolled up it's just about right. He's holding the paper bag puppet that he made while he was here. (His mom is always so nice to bring craft project for her children and nieces and nephews to work on while they are together.)

These are the two quilt tops I pieced at daughter Anna Maria's Rainbow Around the Block project sewing day last Wednesday. (Well, the second one, I did the next morning before I left for home.)
These are mostly Christmas fabrics, with the "on point" blocks added (with sashing to fit) to make a good size quilt.

And a bit more sashing for corner and center blocks made these fit also.

Now, I guess it's time to get back to a quilt project here at home. I guess I'll get back to work on more of these blocks.
Hmmmmm, I wonder how big this quilt will be.

But for now, I'm heading to the TV to watch a rented movie and knit a bit on a sweater for ME!
