beginnings and buttons

 I put the Alaskan panels up. They are nearly 10 years old.  At this point I am making 6 flying geese for each panel and seeing if I can get a top made.


Still working with the Alaskan animal blocks.


I got my MSQ advent button pillow front done.  It took much longer than I thought.

Final block count for 2022

 993.... so close to a thousand...lol

Got a lot of blocks made in 2022.

I have two Bonnie Hunter blocks done from this year's mystery quilt 

I have 4 made now, and have to get back to other more outstanding quilting plans.   So I turned to some Alaskan panels I bought....9? years ago when visiting my sister.  Making lots of flying geese, then will plan what comes next.
