This is a shot of all the blocks I made. The purple one is hand quilted and the others hope to get some attention in 2018. They will be sashed with white in between them all. This will be a take with me project in the car line so it is a quilt as you go effort.
As her son said as he walked by me tonight - 'I think we have enough evidence to have her committed!' A big thanks to my MIL for taking the kids again... she had them Wed/Thurs and had one of them last Friday overnight as well.
What will you be stitching on, to end the new year? Linking up with Kathy and the Slow Sunday Stitchers. A special big thank you to Kathy for hosting the link up each week and for all the encouragement over the years.
Hope everyone has a safe New Years and keeps warm. I'm going to enjoy staying in with hubby and no kids - which means peace and quiet! Cleaning the house is all done so I can enjoy Monday in my sewing room!

I am the MIL and Gramma that takes the kids. I have all 5 of them next week for 4 sleepovers. Yes I am nuts.
That's too funny. What wonderful memories they are making with you Chris. You're a legend! I'm still slow stitching - a good deal slower than you Deb, but I'm stitching.
happy new year love the Dresden
Gorgeous dresden blocks!
You are so welcome... thanks for contributing to Slow Sunday Stitching!
Enjoy the peace and quiet! I remember those days very well but remember, someday you might be a grandmother and then you get to host the sleepovers! Your red dresden is beautiful, all of the blocks are. This is going to be such a lovely quilt. Enjoy your stitching.
Special memories with grandma....priceless! Beautiful Dresden’s! Lots of scraps to revisit as you quilt each block.
Hi,
Beautiful Quilt! I've got one done, well the top is done anyway. Hoping to get it finished sometime in 2018. Have a great New Year!
HAPPY NEW YEARS to you and yours--
I will be up and my drink will be ginger ale to see the new year in--but I am usually in bed by 12:15 am--!!
am working on trying to finish a wool bom #12 by this afternoon or evening--so I can say that all the bom for this one we actually done in 2017--!! But so far this morning, I have sorted alot of paper work and went down to the laundry room and did laundry--sooo??
enjoy the moments, di
Your hand quilting stitches look beautiful. Always nice to have a project ready to take along. Have a great new year. Sounds like saving Monday for sewing is a great way to start 2018
Those dresdens are awesome! What wonderful colors! I bet if your MIL was blogging she would say how wonderful they let me have this great time with the grands. LOL
I love your Dresden blocks, it's gorgeous!
Your blocks look great and I do hope that you are able to complete the quilting in 2018. :)
Your Dresden plates are beautiful. It will really be wonderful to have it all hand quilted during the year. Glad you have having a quiet and peaceful New Year's Eve. Hope you have many opportunities for hand stitching in 2018.
Your Dresden blocks are very pretty. I was surprised when you wrote that you are quilting these individually. I have never quilted blocks and then joined them. I look forward to seeing how this is done. Happy New Year! You have a wonderful MIL.
