Long Time Gone (again)

 I feel like a turkey, because I have not written a post since August! So this is a photo dump and catch up.  

Kindred Spirits won first place at my local fair in September.

It went on to win Best in State at the CT Fair Banquet earlier this month.  Thank you to all who commented on my IG and FB post.   It was a thrill to win and of course I share it with Jill.

The Wedding quilt was gifted to Rich's Goddaughter in Breckenridge.  Here is it after quilting.

It took quite a while to quilt it, but I liked how it turned out.

I continue to work on my Jane Stickle potholder blocks.

I made my first crochet hat of the season for  my friend, Scarlett.

Hooray - I finally finished Helen's horse barn!  It now lives in Colorado.

I finished this bag that I started 2 1/2 years ago.

I did a lot of traveling and teaching and had the busiest fall I can remember.  Here are some workshop samples.  

After my quilting trips the quilt storage room looked like this!  Nutmeg doesn't mind.

I've just finished this quilt top, which as you can see is like the wedding quilt I made earlier this year.  This is not the final layout.   I'll share the finished quilt next month.

We had an election.  Now we wait to see what comes next.  I was inspired to see this sign on a walk last week.

I hope you all had a nice Thanksgiving.  Ours was very peaceful and quiet.   We watched the Lord of the Rings Trilogy.  It is such a great story and beautifully filmed.

Thank you to everyone who follows me on Instagram!  It is not the same community as blogging, but it offers us a chance to share.

In the meantime, enjoy the holiday season and stay well.
