So... time to evaluate the quilting year. Not my most prolific I'm afraid. A couple of days ago I went through this year's pictures to see what I had made. Aaugh! Not that much!!!
Some small things for presents and bazaars...
A couple wall hangings; a small Girls Day quilt, the snowman wall hanging, and the photo quilt for Marcy this summer.
I did some repair work on an old Bible quilt and put that back together earlier in the year.
Two "helps" were the donation quilt for a hospital and the bazaar quilt. I can't claim those as my own though... I did the quilting on the flower basket quilt for the hospital and joined my friends in making the forest and village bazaar quilt.
So that leaves... A zigzag baby quilt, the Crazy Goose Chase donated to the Ronald McDonald House, the Alabama Beauty quilt, the Promises and Borders quilt and the Star Within a Star quilt. Is that a good amount of handwork for 2012?
And I didn't count the knitting I did... a vest for Tetsu, a vest for Obaachan and a woman's vest. Oh.. You hadn't heard about that one? That's because I started it a couple of days ago and finished last night. It was another one of those "Can I make this?" projects that used up yarn in the closet. Sort of an interesting pattern.
For 2013 my first job is to finish machine quilting the Fiery Star quilt I've been working on since September... And somewhere in the sewing room I have a Work In Progress Leaders/Enders quilt.
Happy sewing to all of you in the new year!

I would say you have done quite a bit! I do love the star within a star quilt. You really do such beautiful things!
Happy New Year to you and your family.

Love the vest! It would take me two years to do, I knit soooo slooow.
Happy New Year!
That looks like plenty of happy hours' time stitching, Tanya! And you knit plus sew with your students too. I'd say your handwork has occupied an important part of your precious off work hours. Glad you share it with us!
Dare I go back and count up my finishes for the year? I love that collage of pictures. It would take several hours away from quilting were I to try that!
I love the woman's vest. I can't imagine knitting this in "a couple days".
You have a high standard, Tanya :) I love the Stars Within the Stars. It looks so lively. I wondering which one is your favorite work. Happy new year, Tanya & Tetsu.
You have a lovely collection of finishes this year. When you count in the time of helping, teaching others, you have spent your 'off hours' very well. A healthy, safe, happy new year to you and Tetsu. Thanks for sharing.
