With one thing and another going on, I haven’t done a monthly recap since the beginning of the year. Thought it was time I started it again. Especially as I completed a milestone this month. So once again, I’m linking up with fresh sewing day over at Lily’s Quilts.

November was a great month for sewing, seeing me finally complete my moonglow quilt top, just over two years after I started it. I am so proud of this, my learning-to-quilt quilt.

For new visitors, this quilt top was hand sewn. Yes, even the long border strips. It’s now waiting for me to buy some batting and a hoop then I’ll start hand quilting it.
I also took part in the Travelling Pic-Stitch bloghop. And made two mariners compass blocks based on photos from Iceland.

Well, ok, ALMOST two mariners compass blocks. You can see the details, including the photos I used as a colour palette, in my post here.
Plus, yes there’s a plus, I managed to knit an entire shawl ready to wear to the work xmas ball next weekend. No photo yet though as I had to wait until today to pick up the crochet hook I need to cast off. And as it’s a circular shawl knit in the round, it currently looks like a very uninteresting knitted bag. Will post a reveal tomorrow.
