Marathon Finishes #1 and #2

I am participating in a Quilting Marathon on the Stashbuster yahoo list. We are working on getting our quilt tops finished and we're working from Dec. 26, 2011 until Jan. 31, 2012. I have 20 on my list and I am hoping I can get quite a few of them finished.
One is obviously a Tumbler. The other - Double Slice Layer Cake, the pattern from Missouri Quilt Company. It starts out with 42 - 10" squares and is pretty quick and nice and scrappy, just my kind of quilt.

Last of the Scrappy 4-patch Quilts

for now, anyhow, until I get the urge again to make some quickie quilts.

I know that the 'Quilting Marathon' doesn't start until 12/26 but I'm working on mine so I don't have to think about Christmas. I MUST get the Aran sweater done but that's all I'm planning to do. For goodness sake, it's only a size 9 month. Come on. Get knitting!

I think I'll start putting my cooking on my blog. Other people do it, so why can't I. (If they jumped off a bridge, would you do it? In all likelihood, if it looked like they were having a good time.)

3 Finishes Today

Well, these are 3 out of 4 of this particular design. I guess I must have gone a little crazy when I started cutting the pieces for these.

These are part of the 'Quilting Marathon' that some of us on Stashbusters have planned for 12/26/11 through January 2012. I had 24 tops on my list to get quilted and bound. (Now have 21.)

I got started a little early as I want these to go someplace that will give them out for Christmas. I hope to get the 4th one finished also, but it will be ok if I don't.
