Crimson Cross Quilt from Quilting Bee.
I've been working on a quilt off and on since last spring. I dimly remember getting bit by the quilting bug after my sister gave me an awesome, amazing blanket for Christmas, so I went to Joann's after work and picked out a bunch of fat quarter packets. After some fiddling, I started to make the blocks, then I stalled out (clothes-making is practically instant-gratification by comparison with quilt-making). I'm back to working on it since I'm usually tired when I get home from work, and these blocks don't require a lot of thought.
Pile of knits - recently knit or recently photographed for the first time.
I'm really terrible about taking pictures of the things I knit. Three of the five things in that pile I finished knitting nearly a year ago, but I recently washed and blocked them, and I had two other knits to take pictures of, so they ended up in the pile too.
From the top down, we have Gemini Mittens (Pattern), Rikke (Pattern), my Follow Your Arrow shawl (Pattern), Blank Canvas sweater (Pattern), and Hediye (Pattern).
I finished knitting the Follow Your Arrow shawl a couple weeks ago and I finished the sweater last night during Pathfinder. The hat, mittens, and Hediye shawl were all from late 2014 and early 2015, but they get a lot of wear and are a few of my go-to warm things.
More pictures? Okay!

I'm currently swatching for another Blank Canvas sweater using some Marr Haven Organic Mule Spun Sport in a mid-gray/doe-brown color. It's slow going though because my current job involves a lot of manual manipulation, and my hands are usually worn out by the time I get around to knitting in the evening. So until my hands adjust to the work load, there won't be a ton of knitting or sewing in my immediate future.
