Making Progress

So far I've done the applique on 4 of the 9 blocks I need for my new quilt. I'm starting to think about sashing and how it should look when it's done. Got to keep the momentum up because I'm probably going to be a lot less excited about a Christmas quilt after Christmas!








Christmas Eve we'll be at Heather's and she is making Cioppino- for those of you unfamiliar with this - do yourself a favor and give it a try! It's a seafood stew with a spicy Italian tomato sauce base. If you are really lucky and have fresh Dungeness crab from the San Francisco area to go in it, you will come very close to heaven! It also requires sourdough garlic bread to sop up the juices.
