Quilt #4 is done!

I finished Christmas quilt #4 and took it off the frame yesterday!  I also sewed the binding onto quilt #3.  Quilts 3 & 4 will be given as gifts on Saturday, when I'm having a family get-together at my house.  I'm sure it's something I will regret later (the family gathering, not the giving of the quilts).



Today I put together a backing for the Goose in the Pond quilt top.  That may get done for Christmas for my grandson at this point.  It's about half the size of the I Spy quilts, and should be fairly quick.

I was hoping to get another bunny groomed again, but the weather has been a little cool.  It's supposed to be warmer again next week (unbelievable, for Christmas in New England!), so hopefully I can finish grooming the last two bunnies, and do some barn cleaning before winter descends in earnest.

I have also been working on the Gina House shawl (Perimetera).  I am up to 15 stitches on each side of the (four) markers.  I have to get to 25 before I can start the next step - the lace edging.   It's coming along nicely!  I am also getting itchy to start some spinning, but I'm sure that will wait until after Christmas.  Every time I see some of the small baggies of fine fiber I have lying around (including that recently harvested angora!) I want to spin some of it!  Soon, soon...
