Kris Kringle Panel Kit - Progress / Card Holder from Grandma's Red Needle

Happy October!

How is it we are into October already?! I'm not sure how that happened?!

This week I've been working on the Kris Kringle Panel Kit

UFO #19 on my 2026 UFO list

I usually don't buy kits, but I couldn't resist this cute guy!

I love Teresa Kogut designs. I haven't done any of her cross stitching designs, not yet, but I have a few I really want to purchase. Maybe a Christmas gift to myself?!

The top is done

The pattern is well written and very easy to follow. I was a ...

Card Holder - UFO #4 from Grandma's Red Needle

Now that 'Solstice' is finished (yesterday), I'm moving on to another UFO.

This is UFO #4 on my UFO list 2026. I don't have any records of when I started working on this one, it may have been in 2020 or 2021 since it appears on the last years UFO lists.

I'm giving this one another try!

The 'problem' is; the pattern is in French! ... and I don't know French! My DH speaks French, which helps a lot, although he is not that fluent in 'quilting language'.

I'm also using Google Translate from French to ...

Pillow card holders from Espritpatch

I heard this week that my daughter's school were planning to sell small objects during the parents-teachers meetings to fund raise for the final years' school trips abroad. I was trying to think about what I could contribute that would be fast and easy to make but would still sell. They hadn't asked for any contributions but I figure I could help maybe. Looking through my patterns stash I remembered the Pillow Card Holder pattern from Sewing Seeds of Love which actually doesn't require any sewing at all.

I had this one on my to-do list for ...

Migration to Africa (UFO) and Other Finishes from Grandma's Red Needle

Hello everyone! I hope you're having a good week and get lots of quilting done.

It's winter on the Southern hemisphere. We're having a cold front from Antarctica; rain, wind and 3-4 degrees (Celsius) drop in temperature. (Actually no rain the last days!). This morning we have +14C / 57.2F and 65% humidity. The cold gets into my bones! BRRR! Never in my life did I imagine I have to wear wool clothes in the tropics, but that's what I'm wearing!

To keep my fingers warm, I've been working on my list from my ...

What's on your sewing table.... from Grandma's Red Needle

...and chair, that needs to be finished?

This is my sewing table today. It doesn't look that bad, eh? A couple of projects, right?

The chair; overflowing! Some WIP's hiding there!

I'm determined to work on UFO's, but in between I need a break to work on smaller projects. After doing a little counting today, I've decided to finish (most of) the projects laying on the table and chair, before I touch anything else! (Easier said than done!) I've not set a timeframe, because that won't work for me! I didn't take ...
