LAST PROJECTS OF 2014!

These two table toppers were my final projects of 2014!  Both of these table topper will be donated to the Friendship Quilters Tulip Tea and Quilt Sale on March 28, 2015!


This topper was done with Jaybird Sidekick ruler. The pattern is Rock Candy.  This ruler has so many possibilities, can't wait to see what else I can do with the ruler.  The diamond shapes were done with 2" strips of Thimbleberries (ok dated fabric Ha!) fabric that was in my stash.



This table topper was the first project done using the AccuQuilt GO!   It has been a UFO for a long time, finally got the free motion quilting complete. Using the GO makes piecing so precise! Love using the GO to cut fabric.  The fabric for this topper came from my stash too!    

Now I'm going to see (it's 8pm) if I can finish the hand sewn binding on my Courthouse Stars quilt, then it will be completed in 2014 too!  Yahoo!!

Decorating Gingerbread

Having a great time decorating Gingerbread!  This is my first attempt with a pastry decorating bag.  I've watched enough Food Channel shows to kinda know how it works.  But I think this is like quilting, practice makes perfect.  Need a whole lot of practice but my family and friends will think it's cool.   So I'll win there.  The reindeer are awesome, but I can't take credit for the idea.  Pinterest is my friend.   Merry Christmas!



They turned out so cute.  Everybody has been so pleased with the cookies!  Another Christmas tradition!
