I was very productive during the Sochi Games... but did not accomplish what I set out to do. Remember this pile of quilts waiting for hand sewn bindings? I managed to get half the binding sewn on one tablerunner.... that's it folks... the pile remains undisturbed. Hopefully this pile will dwindle to nothing before the Summer Games in 2016!
Thankfully I did better on Susan Singleton... my new start to honor the Winter Olympics.

I've been collecting small pieces of Liberty Tana Lawn fabrics and have finally decided to use the prints in the charming Monkey Wrench block. Here's my start on my Liberty Quilt blocks.
Also, I continued piecing blocks for my Park Bench quilt.
And Drum Roll Please... I've finally completed the finishing work on several needlework smalls. I will not admit how long the time span between completing the stitching and doing the finishing work. Much too long!
I have a head start on my Christmas smalls for 2014!

I've completed a few more smalls... but I'll save them for my next blog update... this post is getting long!
I'll leave you today with one very dejected Corgi. I broke the news to Owen this morning that the Polar Vortex has returned to our little corner of Iowa. We won't have temps above the teens for at least the next ten days.
