Mystery Quilt
Here's my progress on my December ALYoF goal... a mystery quilt I started in 2006! I have just under 48 hours to crank out a finish with some uncomplicated free motion quilting. I'm so excited to have the quilt top finished. I'm looking forward to giving it away, but I might have to spent some time looking at it first. :-)
Little Letters
I finished piecing all my letters for my two little letters quilts. I need to cut about a million (okay 84) 1.5" corner squares for the sashing. Then I'll be able to get these all pieced together. 
do. Good Stitches
Here are my December do. Good Stitches blocks for the Promise Circle. These scrappy domino blocks went together very quickly. I was even able to raid my 2 1/2" strip scrap pile for some of the pieces. They are on their way to Diana in New York. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished quilt. 
Drawstring Bag
My mother-in-law does embroidery and a while back I noticed that she was keeping her supplies in a plastic shopping bag. Then I saw this adorable fabric and I decided that she needed a large lined drawstring bag for her project and supplies. This one is the Artist Bag size of Jeni Baker's Lined Drawstring Bag.
#disneyminiswap2015
I started making progress on my Disney Mini Quilt. I won't be able to show too many progress pictures, because I think it would give it away to the recipient, but I'm very excited about my plan and hope she'll love it!
Cookies
I made 10 dozen holiday cookies... Here are the quilt block cookies I brought to my guild's holiday party and a selection of the 7 dozen that I brought to the annual cookie party that I attend.
I guess I've been busy. We also celebrated Hanukkah and Christmas with family. I hope the holiday season was enjoyable for you and your family.

You have been busy! I absolutely love mystery quilt. I would have a hard time giving it away.

Post authorThank you! When I bought the fabric I thought of a particular friend when I picked out the fun backing fabric. I wasn't sure I needed to make her a quilt, but I've thought of her every time I've worked on it over the last 8 1/2 years. Somewhere along the line it became hers (though she doesn't know) and I'm very excited to give it to her. If I had just finished it without an intended recipient, I'd probably be keeping it. :-)

Post authorI'm itching to start some new projects, so I'll have to show great restraint and finish up the ABC quilts once I'm done with the mystery quilt. You and Mom have fun tonight!
