Judith, I love your potato chip blocks. I need to do 1 of those quilts. I have enough 2-1/2" strips it would be very easy to cut pieces and help Reduce my scraps. Scrappy quilts are my favorites.
Also, It is great to step out of your comfort zone once in a while. I love your wreath It looks so fresh.

It's difficult for me to walk into a room of strangers but the wreath class was fun. I am probably the last woman in the civilized world to learn how to use a glue gun.
Linda -- if you have the 2 ½ strips it will go fast. Easy peasy and gets rid of scraps. Somehow my scrap bin is still full; pixies must be coming in the night and bringing more.

Since these have been received, so I won't ruin the surprise, I can now share them. I made some Halloween dishcloths:

Super cute Heather! The pumpkin looks like it would be at home on a sewing machine spool pin. I can't remember what they are called.

I am still busy working on my cross stitch, but I am only down to one color left. Now the rest should go very quickly. I also made a cute crochet Christmas item for a swap. I cant wait to send it!

I love the variety of projects! Krista, the gradient on your cross stitch is lovely. Marie and Heather I love your Halloween crafts! So cute!
I am so far behind on my projects, especially Christmas presents. I’m trying to finish up scarves requested by my brothers kids. Not sure I’m going to get much more knitting done than that. Have a pile of embroidery and sewing projects to get to as well but work and kids have been very chaotic lately. I managed to get away to attend my first beekeeping conference but that’s about it! Hoping to have some crafting time over the holiday break!

I was looking forward to my guild's annual retreat last weekend but due to a sick cat and a vet that doesn't have overnite facilities I had to cancel so I'm now having to do everything I was going to do at the retreat. I'm happy to report that Fuzzy is now ok and none of the sewing is done.
