    I agree, I want to make one too. Maybe I should organize a January Snowman Swap for 2017? Something to think about.

    I think they are wonderful. i'm going to use my label as the pocket and kill two birds with one stone. Look forward to seeing your Lighted Christmas Tree Wall Hanging. I plan to send this one to my daughter in Washington state.

    I'm on row three of the star flower quilt. It's progress.

    Robbin Peter pay Paul Red and black - 6 years old
    Delectable Mountain Red and Cream - four years I think
    and if real lucky a Drunkard Path that is six years old.
    Oh my, your snowmen reminded me about the Christmas block from the exchange in 2014. Have to add them to m list now. I have finished tee shirt throw for DGD. Am quilting throw for Hubby. Takes me a while, I'm a hand quilter. When I finish this throw I will do a few smaller UFOs. I do have a signature block exchange top from 2005 that will be next.
    Loved the snowmen. So many great finishes, you gals are "The Bomb."

    Default How old does something have to be, to be considered vintage/antique?

    Well...way back in 1998 (according to the fabric selvage) I saw this celestial fabric that I just had to have. "I'll make an idon'tknowwhat with it," I said to myself. Snip, snip, sew, sew, new UFO!

    Last year SheriR challenged me to learn how to "quilt". I've been doing that by check for years was my response. He he. This is my 6th attempt at "quilting". So far, so good. BTW, if you have a UFO that just isn't working for you, change things up; make it a mini and finish that UFO up! Get 'er done.

    Fraew, your quilting looks amazing! Great job!!! I'm following this swap and will post soon I hope. We were gone away from home in December and January then came home and I had to have surgery on my hand. Still wrapped and stitches, they come out next Monday. I have lots of quilts that are pieced but have to go on the quilting table....not able to do that right now. Hopefully soon I will be able to add to the list of completed

    Your quilting looks excellent, Fraew! Did you use rulers?

    One more quilting session should do it for the UFO I'm currently quilting.
