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

    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".
