Simply Christmas Book win, 13 UFO's in 2013.

It's late so this will be a quick post. Today I received a parcel from Gail Pan and in it was her new book, Simply Christmas.  I entered a competition on her blog and was one of three lucky winners.
I have had a look through the book and it contains lots of lovely Christmas stitching. My son who was here when I got it out of the letterbox has already put in an order for a wall hanging.  Better get some things on my to do list finished so I can make it for him.

Below is my finished quilt top for my 13 UFO's in 2013 challenge. Have found a few tutorials on tying so hope to use this method to finish it off.  Have pinned the batting to the top, which has prairie points around the edge, ready for the backing.  Hope to work on it a bit more tomorrow.  
Well that's all from me tonight.  Happy Stitching till next time...........Hugs.
