The last stitch is stitched, the last knit is blocking, and the last cookie recipe is ignored, so I guess I'm ready for this thing.
To everyone -
no matter what holiday you celebrate, I hope it's the Best Ever for you!

What do you mean, December is almost half over???
Somehow writing posts in my head doesn't exactly equate to posts being posted on the actual blog. Argh. Though I guess it's just as well that my computer isn't reading my mind, come to think of it...
When last I typed at ya, my design wall looked like this -
Well, that was just a bit too chaotic, even for me, so when I finished piecing November's Goosey Temps column, I pulled the summer's columns and moved October and November to the left as I started December. This gave me more room for the last Sand Castles as I build them.
And here's a good thing that I've been doing right along -
I write the month in the seam allowance of the top goose, so I don't get the months confused when I assemble the quilt. THAT's a boo-boo I saw coming from a mile away.
And since it's Bonnie Hunter Mystery Time, I've been squeezing in a little bit of Frolic here and there.
Here's the start of Clues 1 and 2,
which left my cutting table looking like this -
and here's the first HST stacks for Clue 3 which just dropped this morning.
I'm basically just getting a few of each clue done, just to keep my hand in, as I pursue other sewing projects. (Mostly of the gifty variety, since I hear there's a major holiday coming up soon.) (Don't tell me how many days I have left la la la I can't hear you...) When priorities allow, I'll catch up with the frolicking.
In the meantime, I'm linking with SoScrappy for ScrapHappy Saturday (because I'm bound to finish those Sand Castles soon, no really) and with Quilting is more fun than Housework for Oh Scrap! I'm even going to post a photo or two to Instagram for the Bonnie Mystery, though I'm not a fan of Instagram at all at all at all. (I'm mangofeet_on_ig if you're looking for me. I've got one photo so far. sigh)
