I was in the mode for quilt-making during my vacation.
First a baby quilt which has already been sent to its new owner - I tried my hand at meandering again:

My DD and niece helped with cutting out the letters for two "Beloved" quilts (a 4-H project for the homeless). These are backed with polar fleece donated by Malden Mills. They're very cozy feeling, but I really had a hard time stitching them - my machine kept wanting to skip stitches.

and a wall-hanging made from the recent winter-trees quilt square swap:
