Catching up and catching my breath!
Here is one gift I made that I held back from showing since it was for my daughter and she reads my blog.
It was made from the panel from Winter Lane by Birdie & Stitches for Moda. I first quilted the entired front on the white branches and then added the cardinal silhouette. I purchased matching fabric for the back, quilted it and added a hidden zipper.
Yesterday I made two "Baprons" (pattern by Craftiness is not Optional) to have on hand for little visitors to wear. They are made from cotton laminate from the Prince Charming line by Tula Pink. The bias tape was made from a polka dot from the Farm Fresh line and I love how it worked out.
I also finished my block for the January Mid-Century Modern Bee using a block pattern from the book Quilty Fun by Lori Holt that I received for a Christmas gift.
We just finished celebrating Christmas on Saturday when ALL the kids were able to join us at our house. We even got everyone together for a photo!
Now I'm working on some EPP.
Stay warm.

That pillow is so lovely! What a good-looking family! Enjoy the quiet epp stitching....looks very inviting:)
It's so fun to see all you've made, and you know I especially like those Baprons. I also enjoy seeing your family photo as it helps me better associate you with your blog name. Keep up the good work on EPP. I hope to be starting my project soon.
Great family photo! And I loved seeing that cushion on IG. Your daughter must be thrilled with it.
I love the family photo!!!
The pillow cushion is gorgeous and those bibs are wonderful.
Happy New Year, Mary! As a lover of cardinals, especially this time of year, I'm loving that pillow especially! It's fun to see you and your family together!
You made great use of that panel. Very pretty!
Loving those hexies too
Great pillow and I like the house block, too.
I can see why you need a few baprons on hand!
That is a delightful family photo. It is always hard to get everyone in the same place at the same time.
Look at all those gorgeous grand children!
Hi!!! I love the pillow!!! Wonderful family pic!!!!
The pillow is awesome, love the addition of the red bird. Gorgeous wee baprons. What a great family photo, especially with the tree quilt in the background.
Love the family photo with the tree quilt background. :o) Looking forward to seeing all of your creative goodness this year.
Love the family photo! And it was fun to stretch it out a bit I bet! Love the pillow, the pop of red for winter is a perfect touch!
Beautiful family picture wish I could get my family together for one
Love love the Cardinal picture and baprons are adorable
love that pillow.
look at all those cute grandchildren. Great photo of you all together.
I love the cardinal pillow. Looks like you were busy. Hugs
That pillow is absolutely beautiful! I love the wintery feel of it all.
Aren't those baprons so much fun? I made a couple of them for my nephew for Christmas, but I didn't use the laminate. The laminate would definitely be faster, though :)
Cute pillow! How lovely to have everyone together on Christmas. And to get a photo where everyone looks nice! How many children do you have Mary? And it looks like the number of grandchildren is increasing rapidly!
