How to cool off in the summer - make snowmen!!
#1
About a year and a half ago a friend of mine and I cut out the pieces for this table runner. It's by Pam Bono and it is called Snowmen are Just a Bunch of Flakes. I learned that next time I do something like that to make sure I label the pieces :D It was a little challenging to sort it all out but I just picked up a piece of white and then dove in. It worked out in the end.
I still have to do the snowflake blocks that are suppose to go over the snowman's head. This was suppose to be for a table runner but I'm going to make 2 wall quilts instead. I don't have many tables to put that kind of stuff on.
I had to share my in progress pics :) I'm really happy with the way they are coming out. I got all but 2 points. I was tempted to go back and fix my two little boo boos but figured that life isn't perfect and I shouldn't be either. That's my story and I'm sticking to it :D
Oh and if I make it again I will not use the same colors... My snowmen are looking a bit patriotic. We didn't think of that when we were making it. We were just picking out colors that we felt looked nice together. I'll add some holly leaf appliques to tone down the red white and blue. It's also going to have a green border which should also help a bit ;)

It was a pattern. It used to be available on her site but now that she's doing a member club of some sort I didn't see it when I went to link it. I did find it online at other places though. I bought a few of her patterns and haven't finished them yet. I am slowly working on them now... slowly...

I'm hoping to kick out all of my ufo's before we move in to the new house. I'd like to not bring any baggage with me if you know what I mean lol. I do not have many ufo's so it's a possibility.... None of them are really big deals so we'll see what happens between now and December.
