Looking back at the list that is on my sidebar most of my sewing has been for either the local hospital auxiliary stalls which included making childrens' aprons, bibs and potholders etc. Some of which can be seen below.
The one quilt that I did start and finish during the year for myself was the rainbow log cabin quilt. Each month a colour was nominated and a block was made corresponding to that colour. It was a fun project to work on and I love the end result.
Other items made included a tote bag, snap top bags and a table topper using the International Sisters block
A 3D tutu cushion cover as well as an assortment of other smaller items.
The knitting needles were also dusted off and some beanies were made.
So what will 2020 bring in the sewing room. I see more charity sewing happening and of course I am very tempted to join in with the rainbow scrap challenge again. This is a good opportunity to use up all those ever increasing scraps that seem to just keep multiplying before my eyes.
I am taking part in the Winter Blues Blog Hop in January and my project is taking shape - slowly but surely - and is on track to be ready by the 22nd January. Then there is always something to tempt me to take part in as I do some blog hopping and of course Pinterest is like going down a rabbit hole with all sorts of interesting ideas to have a go at. It will be interesting to look back at the end of year to see what caught my attention which is what the International Sisters block did with the 4 generations tabletopper being the result.

Your rainbow log cabin quilt is beautiful, and I am sure all your charity sewing has been much appreciated this year. I hope that you are able to bring in someone to talk about the collages quilt and I hope that you have a wonderful 2020!
