HobbyKat, Love your house block. It almost looks like it's camoflaged in the forest. It's a great addition for sure. (I love House blocks.) They are so addicting to make.

Thanks from the bottom of my heart!

The Santa blocks are all just gorgeous! My dear friend is just going to be in awe of your exquisite work!

Robert.....I just started a machine embroidering a while ago. I would like to try making those beautiful Santas. Is it ok to ask you where you get your patterns? Pm me if you would like. Thanks.

No Problem...
 

You can get them at "A Bit of Stitch" or secrets of Embroidery. They are called Old World Applique Santas. there are 4 sets. I used different colors and rich fabrics to given them that old world look. sometimes i will rotate them so they are looking the other way. just use your imagination and GO FOR IT.
All the best

PS, Sometimes i go down to goodwill or a thrift store and buy an old formal and cut it up for fabric.......

Thank you so much.great idea on the old formals, never thought of those, do use lots of shirts and so on for cotton fabric. Will check out the patterns.

I got the blocks. I mailed yours yesterday. Let me know if they meet the specs

Look at the beautiful Oct swap blocks I received from terriamn. The fabric combos are gorgeous..I love them. Thanks so much for swapping with me.
