Happy St. Patrick's Day! I'd forgotten until just hours ago that I'd never taken Patrick out of the closet to help us celebrate this day. Hope you have a lucky day. I'm planning on something Irish for dinner...just what is yet to be discovered!
Khambray is done. I was able to finish it yesterday and it's now in Kerry's Quilting queue. I found a little trouble with Cathy Wiersbicki's pattern when it came to the outside border. I found the top and bottom didn't need the 3" cut from each end as directed and the side borders were about 7" short. I checked all my seams and everything measured right. Fortunately I had enough scrappy fabrics left to make it all work. Teal YLI thread is planned, a goldish black for Sew Batik, and a feathery looking quilting pattern called Exquisite will be used. I've got a stripe in teal and gold that will be used for the binding when the time comes. So today I have yardage to input to the "USED" statistic!

All lovely projects - love that first one! I recognized the pumpkin quilt. Wow, you're almost at my goal for the year! Wowzers.
Khambray is rich and lovely looking! Great job--glad it worked out in spite of the problems.
I recognize all of those quilts awaiting binding.
Your little ornaments are very cute. Fun to get Christmas things ready ahead of time.
