I can't imagine having my sewing room taken over by anything, even a Christmas tree. So many ideas for 2012. Have decided not to quilt for anyone but myself for a change. I want to quilt the following patterns: pineapple, houses, trees, grandmother's fan, simple 4" squares in all shades and sizes of pink and creams with flowers for my bed, and maybe try a cathedral window quilt. Would love to try to piece a scene, you know like houses, trees, rolling hills, a barn, sky and maybe a fence. I am sure there are many more but these come to mind right now. Maybe I can post pictures of these at the end of the year. Have a wonderful holiday and your tree will be taken down before you know it. Enjoy your company.
