Slowly heading for Christmas

Winter so far is jus ugly - grey, rainy and disgusting. BUT the right weather to quilt (love the new Bernina 550 QE that is an advanced birthday present I can already use :-) and to do more watercolor sketches. Only one lesson left - I'll have to wait until February 6 to continue with the next class.
The baby quilt is progressing and looks good so far.
So here are  more shoes and one kind of mixed media piece - a sketch with stitching added, some straight stitches and algerian eyelets. When I did that lily I should have turned the paper to the portrait version instead of landscape plus the black and white border didn't really fit. But after revisiting it and giving it a new look I can live with it.

By the way - what about inventing self- cleaning dogs??
Back to quilt-related topic - here are two of my recycled circles that I made after watching Jane LaFazio's video. Lots of TAST stitches, too.

Need some time management

I had to take a short break from "producing" balls and biscornues for my March CQJP block:

There's the TAST stitch 58 at the left bottom, too.

From the blocks I have so far this would be a possible arrangement
There's a delay in my TAST stitching though I used some in my blocks. But number 58 looked so cute so I had to try adding leaves around the spirals.
Last weekend started a new class at Quilt University with Elizabeth Barton "Working in Series"
and I have to do my homework. Plus I'm working on a baby quilt for my partner's daughter. So I'm more than busy ....
