Being creative

 Finished this pine needle basket. It is larger than the other ones I have done (9 ' x 10"). I got the base from Etsy and love the flower and seeds. 

Also I have been doing baking. The top one is Chocolate Babka - a heavy swirled bread that has a ganache inside. the bottom one is a Chocolate Yule log. I made a cream cheese filling and ganache for the top. Both are YUMMY!

Decorated for the holidays, haven't done it for a few years, so this year  decided to go for it!

 

 I have been doing some macrame. This is a curtain/valance I made for my neighbor. Am making a larger one for a different window for her and will post it when it is finished.

Baskets

 Baskets made from strips of fabric (left over from quilting), rope, and twine with embellishments of beads and lichen.

New quilts finished

Table runner title: Ice Fishing

Small quilt title: Circles in the Sand

Both of these quilts are made with ruler work and "quilt as you go" method.

The pattern is sewn and then parts are cut away - sometimes called "reverse applique".
