I was going to continue quilting 'Solstice' this Monday morning, but after a couple of seams, this is what happened:
Mini-Bug found the best place to rest after being outside for more than two hours!
I need to move the quilt to be able to sew, but that won't work as long as he sleeps there!
I have a couple of UFOs as WIPs:
- Solstice: continue quilting, 10 blocks out of 25 left to quilt
- Basket Wall Quilt - waiting for binding fabric
This morning, I unboxed the Kris Kringle kit (Teresa Kogut). I purchased the kit in 2023 or 2024, but never got around to make it!

This is UFO #19 on my UFO list.

It comes with the pattern

...and fabrics
I'm excited about this one, as I am with everything Christmas!
The pattern is 12 pages, including the templates for the stars. I'll have to read the pattern properly (for once!) before I start cutting!
Do you decorate with the same wall quilts for Christmas every year? I have a few I made years ago that I do love and find difficult to replace. It's also fun to make something new to display.
Dentist appointment this morning, have to get ready!

that is a cute Kris Kringle! I like to decorate at Xmas time - some people say the older they get the less they decorate - I hope that won't be the case with me - I like decorating for it
Det ser spennende ut å åpne opp mønster og stoff til et nytt prosjekt! Jeg har et jule quilt veggheng som jeg bruker hvert år. Det lagde jeg med utgangspunkt i et stoff med julekrybbe motiv. Jeg fant mønster til blokker som passet til og satte det sammen.
Your Christmas UFO is going to be adorable! What a cute kit!
I can almost hear the siren song of that sweet Santa kit! Your kitty knew what he was doing.
As for quilt decorating for Christmas, I will have a couple on the walls this year once I finish working on the current Him and Me landscape. I have an ever-changing art 'gallery' on my sewing room walls and change what landscapes I display with the seasons, so I thought it was time to have some Christmas versions to display.
This quilt looks lovely. Good luck!
WOW--what an adorable kit, Astrid--this will be such fun for you to put together and for us to see your progress.. [I think blogger has fixed the issue with getting our feeds back to normal--mine came up this morning--yay!!]
Enjoy hugs, Julierose
Hopefully by now you have been able to continue your quilting! Kris Kringle will make a nice Christmas quilt. I have some Christmas quilts for decorating and some for the beds, and I will continue to use those. When you only get them out once a year, they seem new again!
Love your Kris Kringle kit! My cats love sitting on anything soft especially if I'm working on it! So funny!!
Oooh the Kris Kringle kit is fabulous, He will be a fun project to work on.
I love your Teresa Kogut quilt kit. Her patterns, both cross-stitch and quilting, are amazing. I'll look forward to watching the progress on this one.
