Cookie Quilt is Done!

I finally finished up my cookie and candy Christmas quilt.  This one is flannel and really heavy and cozy.  The sweets are all wool.    This was a pattern I got from Thimblecreek. You can find it here.

I've made three big flannel quilts in the past couple of years and I'm going to try to resist them for a while now.  They really are a big pain to wrestle with and quilt.  This one is pretty heavily quilted, with feathers in the green sections.  I'm sure it would have been fine with a lot less.  I'm looking forward to working with nice thin cottons again.

Wasabi Girl told me that I finished this one "fast."  "I saw that up on your design wall just a few months ago."  That doesn't seem fast to me.  It felt like this one took forever.

Finishing this a good start for my holiday crafting season.  This week I'm going to be deciding on some ornaments to stitch up for gifts.  I think I might be able to finish one more quilt and make a few small gifts.

I can't believe I have friends who have already finished their Christmas shopping.  I'm still trying to start!  I'm not much of a Black Friday shopper any more.  Too much craziness for me.  I'd rather eat leftovers and sew.
