Quilting fun for family and friends!

Is it time?

I ask myself, "Is it time?" 

Then I answer myself, "Soon, but not yet."

I usually reach my "I am not doing any more for Chistmas" around December 1st. This year I am happy to continue making, but I think it is for next Christmas. I had an aha moment when I was thinking about how am I going to get everything done? and how early do I need to start next year if I don't do it now? I think I need a better plan. 

 Maybe one Christmas thing a month? or just keep going so it is already for next year? 

That being said I have not started my Christmas sewing, lol. I have a quilt cut out and 4 more waiting in the rotary cutter pile. I have bowl cozies I am to finish. And the all important baby Christmas Quilt. 
That one I will finish.

I have several baby quilts in the pile of "Let's get this done" and 4 nephew neice quilts that are in various stages of needing just the binding to finishing the blocks. 

My mind has been preoccupied with my A1C lab results, the dreaded sugar marker. I am on the cusp of diabetes 2, 0.1% off. I am a firm believer in diet and exercise so that is what I will do. I have cut out all wine gums and chocolate. I have cut out most chips and cheese puffs. I have quit buying baking as that has huge amounts of sugar. (Good-bye lemon blueberry scone)
