Crazy Quilt Ornament Santa

I finished up on this crazy quilt Santa ornament early this morning:

I can't wait to sew these last 3 stitched pieces up!  Next I'll be doing a few gifts so stop back to see those.

Also, I have Crazy Quilt Mystery Project Classes coming in January!!!

Cat Doll for Cover of Volume 3

This is the cat doll that I did for the cover of Elegant Crazy Quilt Seam Treatments Volume 3:

I'm happy to say that Volume 3 is done!  The cover photo is taken and we're putting it together.  If all goes well, I expect to have it available by the weekend.

And if no one minds that I pat myself on the back, I believe this is the best collection of borders that I've done yet!  I've already stitched a few and can't wait to stitch some more!

I spent 6 hours sewing up some new blocks today so I'm ready to stitch!!!

And, I've already started on another book for crazy quilting.  No, not borders.  You'll have to keep your eyes open for hints in upcoming blog posts!
