Christmas Quilt A Long




I have my fabric tote pulled and ready to work on some more blocks for my Christmas quilt over at Sue's. Hope you will join in.






I finished the Friendship Stars. I guess it is whether you are right or left handed on how you like your stars to spin?




Oh, my - it kind of looks like snow???? Dense Fog!!




Double Friendship Stars - just had to have snowmen.




I thought I would lay the 6 blocks (2 of each - so there are 12 done) out on some pretty poinsettia fabric. Lookin' good!




I think I am going to straighten out the scraps in the tote, do a little clean up, and call it a day on this project. It has been fun - need to go check out how everyone else is doing. Thank you Sue for being an excellent hostess. Will be back tomorrow.

Sewingly Yours,
Sharon

I'm not quite in the christmas spirit just yet but I will save that QAL for another time. I don't even have christmas fabric yet :) I do love your blocks though! Very Nice.

I keep thinking, "Christmas in July!!" Even Hobby Lobby is putting out their Christmas decor. I need to get on this wagon if I am to get anything fun done!!

The quilt shops all have their Christmas fabrics in now. Great blocks to try!

Great fabric selection for your blocks!

Sallie said...

So pretty! I'm right handed and I like my stars to spin as shown. Is that typical?

Oh, I see your are making the Christmas Stars. I haven't made any of them yet.

We stopped at a Goodwill Store the other day and they were decorating a Christmas tree. I guess for "Christmas in July".
