Wow, I feel like I accomplished a lot today. I started this morning by completing the quilting on the Poinsettia quilt (official name Crimson Christmas). Then I got it bound and done. Next up was to box up and send the three custom quilts I had finished yesterday and Monday. I brought them to the Post Office, now that is a big check mark on the done list. I also completed a hat, but I think it is too small for the intended person. My head is a bit bigger than theirs and it is too snug on me. I also finished the Sea Urchin hat, just have to weave in all the ends. Then only one more hat to make, but that is one I have a few more days to do.

Up for tomorrow is to make a backing for the Arboreal quilt put it on the frame for quilting, and get a start on the Plaid pines quilt. I want to get all my gifts packed and out the door too. I usually like to have everything shipped and out the door by the first week in December. Since I was traveling last week I am a bit behind. Once that is done, hoping for Friday, I can get to enjoying the holiday and settling into a regular rhythm again.

I stepped away for a bit and got some more done. Finished weaving in the ends of the Sea urchin, and frogged then re-knitted the top of the Northwood cap. Much better, and done. It’s raining today, so there will be more sewing and finishing. I need to take a trip into town to drop some things off, make a few purchases, drop by the post office, and maybe have lunch with a friend.

Be Kind.
