Still Sewing, Can't Talk...

Actually, I do always sew gifts for the holidays. You already know that.  I'd love to sit and chat with you today, but I'm a little busy.
I have a doctor's appointment first thing today, and then finishing up a few  things before I'm ready for Christmas. I may add more if there's enough time.
Here's what I have left: 3 sets of Grammie's Jammies Bind one table runner and one lap quilt 1 (more) eye mask 2 zippered kit bags   If I have "extra" time: 2 - 3 more wallets 3 gift card holders   If you ask me, I'm doing pretty well! I have three days by my calculations. I know some of you are laughing right now. I don't have time to post photos,  but I will get pictures of everything before I wrap the projects for delivery.
How are you coming with your lists?

Piecing, Binding and Keeping Things Tidy...

I finished a table runner top Sunday night and will quilt it today.

I know it looks "wonky", but trust me, that's just the perspective from the way

I hung it up to photograph it. It really is squared up and even all the way around.

This will be a gift for our Christmas Eve hostess. The fabric has poinsettias and 

music motifs, and I'll bind it in green. I love the traditional Christmas colors.

If you have a last minute gift to make, I can recommend this as an option.

It's called "Glad Tidings Table Runner" designed by Mary's Cottage Quilts.

Note to self: Clean up after each project. Make something new. Repeat.

I'm managing to keep the studio relatively tidy while I'm creating.

A basket of Necessary Clutch Wallets and my "wall of inspiration".

It's nice to be able to go to the shelves for my fabric choices, rather

than leave home and run to my LQS. Don't worry though. I still go

out to visit the girls. I have to see what they're making, after all!

Grammies Jammies fabrics are laundered and I'll be making those later

today or tomorrow. I have time to get them finished, but I'll tell you about

that another time. It's going to be an especially magical Chrismas this year!

Tuesdays With Tag - A Guy's Gotta Eat...

Hi, Everybody!

 Road Trip!!!!

 

Mom's been so busy in the studio that I had to tug on her leg, keel over like I

was dyin' and grab my collar to tell her we needed more dog food. We were

almost out, and you know, a Corgi can't be worryin' about runnin' out of food!

We got in the car and headed over to our new supplier of delicious

dinners and treats. The name of our new store is "Cats n Dogs".

I'm not crazy about the "cats" part, but they sure know how to treat me!

The lady behind the counter was really nice. She gave me two

  treats after I gave her my paw. She was really impressed by

my politeness...and my cute face, and my ears! (I'm not sure

exactly what she meant about that!) I was on my best behavior.

She even gave me a Christmas gift! It's a bag-full of goodies! Now,

let's see...biscuits, a sample of canned dog food, and a bunch more!

I've gotta run, guys! I lookin' forward to tuckin' into my treats. I've

got a real surprise for you next week, and you won't want to miss it!

'til then...
