Are you going to follow the pattern Teen? I just had a look at the quilttop and with the pieced blocks I think it's quite a busy one and the Santa blocks don't stand out. Just my opinion though!
And yes, you are very good at picking projects LOL.
Thanks Judith, we had a great time. We onlu meet about 4 or 5 times a year (sometime even less) and have a lot to talk about.
I visited the grands (and their parents

) this morning and DDIL is doing great. She's just tired but that's understandable.
