Still Christmas

The Christmas decorations have been put away but in my sewing room, it still looks like Christmas.  After a hiatus of several weeks  for holiday celebrating and vacation, I'm back at work on the Christmas Quilt of 2014.


I finished all of these units.  I just need to trim them to size, then four units get combined into one block. 

If you recall my last post on this project, trimming is the tricky part as a result of the pattern directions for this step being rather incomplete.  But I think I've developed a good method to ensure I cut to the correct size, with the block centered accurately, so trimming will be my week night project this week.  Then I can join the blocks over Super Bowl weekend.  And that will be real progress.

    Looks like fun! You're so smart to get a jumpstart on a Christmas quilt. I pulled Christmas fabrics for a quilt right around the holidays -- they're still sitting in a pile. ;-(

    There's still plenty of cold and snow to keep you thinking about hohoho. (Sorry, it just seemed to flow). :0)
