As I panic about the size of the turkey ( too big for the oven...) and the lack of presents
( still to be bought by a frantic shopper...) the dust in the house ( will it be noticed by visitors...) and the need for decorations in all areas... I decided to count the quilts. All the quilts, cushions and one notice board made this year for commissions and for my family and here they are, after a struggle to master Picmonkey editing, so that I could make this collage....

There is one final quilt to show you this year. It has been made because of the kindness of Nancy and Sally at Fabric Rehab who sent me a free gift in a parcel of fabric I ordered from them. You can visit them here they have some lovely fabrics....

I added some green Enchanted Forest fabric:

Here is the layered quilt:

Now for the arty photos I thought...I hung the finished quilt on our evergreen hedge but the background was too dark....

This one is my favourite although it shows up my variable stitch length!

At last I got to the sofa where it and I intend to stay over Christmas... with my scrap velvet cushions too.

So now I just want to say Happy Christmas to everyone who visits my website and blog. You come from all over the world, some of you are friends, maybe others will become so. It is also just fine to enjoy a visit, stay a little while and feel connected to another quilter for a few minutes in a busy day. Thank you too for all your comments and kind wishes over the year.
Next year I wish for a more peaceful world and the safe arrival of another little one in our family. I hope you have a lovely break too,
Very best wishes,
Sue
