Sorry for the long silence.
Part was, that other than socks (lots of socks) I didn't have anything interesting to show.
But, finally, I've got another finished quilt:
This one is called The Drummer Boy Dresden Quilt (or, as I like to call it, the Little Drummer Boy). The idea came from a quilt along, started by Stiched in Color and The Making of Joy, though I never officially joint.
It is a scrap friendly, colorful quilt. I started around September, cutting fan plates and sewing them together to make the quarter Dresden Plates. I applicated the 83 fans (and the little quarter cycles in the corner) to the background by hand, and then sewed the blocks together with the sewing machine. For a while I debated if I should recover some of the background behind the fans, but in the end decided against, mostly for stability reasons.
The size is about 125 x 175 cm, which is a good size for cuddling.
The back is from solid dark blue fabric I had sitting around, plus a couple of star blocks from my orphan block box.
Quilting was done free motion, following the shapes of the fans.
I'm not sure where this will end at, so it hasn't got a label yet.
