FIRST FINISH OF 2024, et al

 

My "Christmas Ojos No. 1" is 

done and dusted!!

I have two others in the wings as I want

them to be sprinkled on tables

at Christmas time...

Seems like a long time since I've had 

any kind of a  "finish";)))

Here is how the quilting looks on the back; 

I think it almost looks like

a subtle Shashiko-- a bit.

The binding fabric is left over from a project a made

a few years ago...it was all ready for me in

my "leftover binding" basket;))))

that was a treat to find! 

Below are a few close ups...

Here is one green/gold Ojos center

and

Here is the red/white Ojos

and below the 2nd green/gold with

the VERT LAST of that

lovely gold fabric print!

I am happy with how it came out.

:)))))

And

Here it will sit for viewing

on my Grand-mere's old wicker rocker...

in our living room...

*************************

Next up for hand quilting is 

this Green Scrappy table topper,,

:-)))

All layered up and pinned...

This one is a true "bits and bobs" leftover

crumb mini quilt....

It should be fun to hand quilt...

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

I am continuing on my Afghan journey-- 

the stripes are mounting up 

little by little....

I am still only doing one

row per day...

I am using up all of my variegated yarns;

isn't this pink just gorgeous?

Especially next to that lovely 

deep, dark grape one>>>>

*****************************

We started out the day at 12 degrees 

but it is warming up pretty

well; noonish now--and 

 it is 30.9 degrees

I'll take that ;))))
