progress on the pillows

the embroidery is finished for the first pillow. It will be a fourteen inch square. I just need to make it into a removable pillow case for the form so it can be washed easily. It has been washed once but not pressed at this point. The second pillow top is moving along nicely. Photos later.
As for the baby quilt..it is basted and the major in the ditch stitching is done. Nothing fancy going on with the quilting for this one. I will take pictures when I get to the binding. Hopefully sometime before Christmas....Where does the time GO??

The trees are turning into such beautiful fall mixes of colors. Temperatures are dropping into the freezing zone early here and most of the trees will now just drop the leaves before they get the chance to really show off. I have finished the embroidery of the pillow and need to do the final sewing of the case to cover the pillow form. Pictures will be taken then. The new grand baby is here and the baby quilt is NOT finished....where oh where does the time go??? Again pictures will be posted when that is done. sigh.
