    Thank you, the fabric pieces have to be cut down after the embroidery work.

    I know you have been working on the redwork but I was caught by the white on white snowflake background fabric. Been looking for something like that for a couple of years. ...... Don't need it, just want some for some future winter themed quilt. Tee-Hee-Hee! quilters are always on the hunt for some elusive fabric, right?!

    Your embroidery work is beautiful. I like the idea of the red and green blocks. Don't know how big the piece or pieces are but I am sure it is going to look great when the quilt is finished.

    It's beautiful! If it were my project, I would quilt around each building, it's so nice, it would need to hang on a wall in my home!

    The wow snowflakes is from a quilt shop. Also you can find it at Joann's. I brought yards of it from Joann's and love it. WOW for Christmas is very hard to find.

    Thank you, not sure how it will be quilted. I have so many to finish.

    I have been looking at your last several posts with your embroidery and you are truly a master of it. Absolutely gorgeous work!
