I have posted about these recently, but this is for daughter Katie for Christmas.
I ended up doing the Redwork in this ornament twice. Mainly because I goofed up and attached it to the picture frame backing upside down. This time I got it better.
I also made a small mug rug for my sister.
And I made this mug rug for my brother. He and his wife love lighthouses like I do. I machine embroidered each of them a different lighthouse. I still need to assemble hers and that will be the end of Christmas gifts.
I was happy last night to get back to the Buhl-Bushong Quilt. I got 4 of these units hand-stitched together. I have 4 more prepped to hand stitch, and I plan to get the applique prepped for the border, this month's assignment to finish border #2.
