Still hand sewing...........

I'm still hand sewing the binding on the Christmas quilt.  I have half of one long side left to finish.  One of things I had to clear off my cutting table 2 days ago was my African and Bali batik 2.5" strips.  I have 72 different fabrics in the group and will probably do another random plank type quilt with them.
This is what I see when I look across the street from my front door.  Those are squirrel nests up in the big trees.  It looks like there might be a lot of little ones running around next year.
