Design Wall Monday - December 13th

I don't have much to show today.  Kiddo and I did get some ornaments on the Christmas tree this week.  All the wrapping paper, bows, gift bags, and ribbon has been moved from the attic to my sewing room, which becomes gift wrap central during the holidays.  My sewing room is more cluttered than normal, but I should still be able to sew. 

On to the design wall stuff.  I did finally finish the binding for last year's mystery quilt.



The quilt label has been printed, rinsed and is now dry.  Maybe I'll get it sewn to the back today.  Then I'll take the "finish" photos. 

Unfortunately, not much progress on the center block for the Seeing Star BOM.


I did get the corners cut and finished sewing everything together.  This isn't completed yet, there is another pieced border that needs to go on. 

I'm off on vacation today. My guy and I have a few things we need to take care of, but I may get to spend a couple of hours with my sewing machine.  I could use the sanity break! 

How are things progressing on your design wall?  Check out Judy's Patchwork Times for other in progress eye candy.
