Iceblossom, that is adorable. Another good idea I must look up.
Last year I bought a kit from Shabby Fabrics called Tiramisu. I was disappointed when it came because all the fabric is sparkly, and I normally am not a "sparkly" person. I guess that is mainly because the old sparkly stuff came off on everything, and when you washed it, the sparkles ended up in the washer only to invade the next load of wash. , Anyway, I decided that today is the day to cut up all the fabric and get it ready to go. The block is cute and should go fairly fast. I will raid the stash for backing, I have lots of Christmas fabric that needs to find a home.
I have been working on the Jenny Doan blocks, forget the name of it, but it resembles a Jacobs Ladder. Only thing is, I am finding it very boring putting the blocks together. Thus the switch to a holiday theme.
I also have 3 quilts ready for Bob, the longarm, I will do those this weekend. That will make 36 quilts so far this year, with only minimal fabric purchase. The bulk has been from stash.
