Finished UFO and Other Finishes, No progress on Purple from Grandma's Red Needle

 I took some days finishing several small items sitting on the table and taking up space.

Out of approximately 30 yards green fabric, I have about 11 yards left, mostly Moda Marbles. Yeah me!

I've finished the custom order for my friend in Norway
