He's so cute. Now wonder there was a fight

luvstoquilt 12-30-2012 07:11 AM

What a great SNOWMAN! It looks so pretty on your door...you should make one for yourself! I don't think I could have parted with him.

Oh for sure! I almost went to Plan B, and kept him.
Instead, he'll have a brother some day ... of course with some updates to him!! :)

What a fun story and doorhanger! I just love your work.

I can understand the desire for this cutie! Thanks for posting him! Love the use of the stipe fabric.

Oh but it came the day after Christmas!
ONly about 3" and we've had another 1" since ... still not much compared to many others!

Frosty is so cute and Love your whole porch display. Thanks for sharing.

joyce888 12-30-2012 06:01 PM

That is so cute and thanks for letting us see him on the door! He really makes a beautiful decor.

How cute. The only other door hanging I have seen was when my step daughter nailed up an antique quilt over the garage door so no one could see in while they were sorting my MIL's belongings. I like to had a stroke. I like yours a whole lot better. You did a great job.

kuntryquilter 12-31-2012 04:25 AM

Adorable. Happy New Year to you.

Katie 12-31-2012 04:25 AM

He's so cute - I, too would have fought for him

JeannieT 12-31-2012 05:28 AM

Nice job.... I just love snowmen....

Sewfine 12-31-2012 06:02 AM

That is beautiful. Love Frosty.

justflyingin 12-31-2012 06:15 AM

He's great! I'm so glad the receiver loves it as well! Great job, and congratulations for making something so sought after. :)

Donna 66 12-31-2012 06:17 AM

This is just so cute--I love the little extras, like the *straw* hair and striped border. Thanks for sharing the pictures and enjoy the plum pudding!

Scakes 12-31-2012 06:30 AM

Frosty is so cute!! Love the idea of the exchange. It sounds like you had a lot of fun.

Happy New Year!

maryv 12-31-2012 07:04 AM

Happy New Year!

We do!!
Up until a few years ago, it was just a generic exchange with a dollar limit.
One year it switched to a "theme", chosen by the host.
The next year the theme was "something I created" ... and it has stuck since.

As a result, we have discovered talents within the family, that none of us had any idea existed!

Mariposa 12-31-2012 07:58 AM

Cute Frosty! Great pattern, and you did such a nice job on this! I can see why folks would "fight" over it! :)

kathyd 12-31-2012 09:04 AM

Perfect winter decoration! Sometimes we get enought snow to make snowmen here. Today only to get 1" to 3" inches, maybe a very small snowman! :)

granny_59 12-31-2012 10:53 AM

Dear QuiltE

Frosty turn out perfect and it looks so great at your door that I look forward to see his brother hanging there next year!!
Maybe you could pose next to it in your own housecoat - love that one too!
I wish you and all on this board a happy new year and always enough time and fabric to create more beautiful things.
Granny

owlvamp 12-31-2012 11:42 AM

I love it!! It could come visit my door as well. It is beautiful!

janetter 12-31-2012 11:49 AM

Way too cute not to have one for yourself now. BTW great mitered corners, I have such issues making them. Congrats!

nannyrick 12-31-2012 11:51 AM

Oooooh, I love it. What a great job. Thanks for sharing.

JudeWill 12-31-2012 12:34 PM

He is so cute! Love him! Gotta ask a question. Feel kind of ignorant, but what is a GFG button?

GFG = Grandmother's Flower Garden
Instead of joining them as you would do for a quilt, I just used one on its own, for each button.

GwenH 12-31-2012 03:23 PM

Oh my gosh... he is adorable!! I think there may have been a fight for him at one of our gift exchanges too!! Your back doorstep looks so inviting!

sewnsewer2 12-31-2012 03:26 PM

How cute! Love his hair.

cowgirlquilter 12-31-2012 03:46 PM
