For January we will get ahead...and will be doing Valentines Day. Then we won't be sending the theme within the month and everyone will have more time to enjoy their mini's

kiffie, your applique's are beautiful, something I could never achieve! I don't mind if you stay near your "box" at all.

Great idea, Tlambing..
MaryMo, you're too kind, and your craft work is beautiful!
I think we're always our own worst critics...
I love seeing what everyone makes, and being inspired by it all.

And I love yours so much, it's still in my holder!!
I didn't mean to come across pitiful and whiney...Well, not THIS time..lol
I just think I could break out of my rut a lil more.. As in I want to get better at fmq, yet I do very lil of it..I revert back to hand quilting, or echo quilting. I guess I should be happy I can do ANY quilting, eh??..

And, I just wish I didn't take so much time deciding on each lil color, each lil design, etc...Decide, get busy, next step!!
There's a name for me...And probably medication for my issues...

I got Bilben's mini done and shipped out - it's going to the Yukon so it has a way to go. In all my excitement of finishing and getting packaged up and out I forgot to take a photo - Cathy I hope you have the ability to post photos as I would love to have a copy of this one for my quilting journal; I tried my hand at applique again this time - I'm really learning to be more comfortable with the process.

Thank you for all the sneak peaks - love the mini that looks like snails tail - I picked up a bakers dozen of mini quilt patterns while on a shop hop earlier this year - they all came with a recipe - all the patterns are referred to as recipes.

I wish you all a great weekend of sunshine and happiness.

I received my gorgeous mini from Kiffie today. The picture doesn't do it justice at all, but hope you get the idea of how nice it is. She put so much detail work into it. Such beautiful embroidery using different media, and the all the cute charms (including adding some fabric charms in my package). Such pretty buttons, and fabric. She put lots of gold work on it. I don't know what else to say, except thank you so much Kiffie. You really out did yourself, and I am really doing a happy dance.

I will see if I can get one closer up picture of the front.
