I am feeling a bit out of sorts.
I am NOT a "Christmas" person.
This dark time of the year is always really hard on me. On top of this, I have had to go low-carb because of my blood sugar. I guess I am in a bit of denial about that.
I have been making quilts. Quilts are always the best therapy.
3, yes 3, my nephew and his wife recently added triplets to our family! Since they arrived premature, I haven't met them yet, but I want to have their quilts ready for Christmas. I used the same fabric line (Lil' Rascals by Chloe's Closet for Moda). I have made each quilt different. Baby #1 (boy) quilt is a large block alternating with a 4 patch; Baby #2(boy) is a disappearing 9 patch; Baby #3 (girl) is a Twister. These are my last quilts I need to have complete before the 25th and I know I will have no trouble finishing them.

I have a commission t-shirt quilt to work on next. Then, I am going to paint my studio/sweatshop. I want to paint it the brightest white I can find to amplify the light. That will make me feel better.

I feel the same about Christmas. Especially the Chinese Christmas people have been nurishing these days.
Maybe you should take a look at the gluten free diet. I hear it really works and it is not as difficult to follow as it may seem at first glance.
Lovely quilts. Interesting choice of fabric and patterns. I´d choose the twister for the girls too!
I know what you mean about Christmas. Beautiful quilts, and congratulations on the new additions to your family.
This time of year has it moments for me as well...hang in there. Quilting is wonderful therapy, congrats on the triplets.
