BOM
I have so enjoyed In Color Order's block of the month! I didn't find this group until about June or July but I have been catching up ever since. This block of the month uses half square triangles. I decided to give a try to thangles and am so glad that I did. I had read about them over on Katy's blog. No stretching or distorting only perfectly sized hsqs!

Cross Stitch
I have attempted my very first cross stitch project! So excited that this is happening! The Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery
I ripped a good bit out oh around three times an entire row had to be taken out. What can you do, sometimes my counting was off so I placed the wrong stitch or color in the wrong place. However this pattern was super beginner friendly. Anything that I couldn't figure out I would youtube and that helped immensely. The back is a lumpy mess but it's okay because the front worked out great. This is going to be a Christmas present for my niece as soon as I finish the other two pieces. I'm not sure what to do with the finished project if I should frame it or try to incorporate it into a pillow? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Drunkard's path
Finally am making progress on my drunkard's path inspired by Kristie's awesome quilt!
I don't know how to quilt this one, I've already "unsewn" many a stitches.
But I guess that's the problem with trying to recreate such an awesome awesome quilt at least without the use of a long arm.
Any suggestions?

I joined the Sugar Block Club over at StitcheryDickoryDock.com
I really enjoyed watching her Craftsy BOM free class. Although I didn't make any blocks....this club includes sweet recipes (Yum!)
It starts in January!
