Over the last week I have finished sewing and quilting my Xmas tree skirt and also all the quilting for Grace's suffolk puff quilt. Just need to get the binding organised which might require a few purples to be bought so I can make some random purple binding.
There has also been some prep and spinning with that gorgeous lamb's fleece I bought. Because it is a short staple I am using hand carders to open up the fibers into a huge plastic tub and then I am processing them much quicker through the drum carder which is on loan from my mum. I have also spun some up and will either ply 2 or 3 strands together. Not sure yet.
Well a bit more processing while I do some baking and the washing and then perhaps spend the better part of the day spinning LOL.

Hi Katherine, you have done a lovely job on the suffolk puff quilt...my sister made one in black and white for her sofa.....Regards, Lyn
Such gorgeous projects Katherine, I love both of them! Wendy
All gorgeous. It is about the best tree skirt I've seen and the quilt must look stunning on a bed. The greys in the wool are so gentle and subtle - I think you are brilliant!
Congratulations on finishing the tree skirt. And Grace's quilt is almost there too! They both look great. :)
