More Snow People Arrived

This wonderful Snowman was made by Rebecca H.  The embroidery work is great. Everything except his body is embroidered.  Too cool.  And that face just makes me smile every time I see it:)

This guy is from Martha L, she lives in Texas.  According to her, his name is "Mr. Puddles". 
He's a Texas snowman.  And this is what happens after a rare Texas snowstorm!
            "hehehe" 

You just gotta LOVE the sense of humor and creativity of quilters:)

There just nothing better!

Love & Hugs,

Christmas Star Block Swap :)

Sharing pictures of the 2 blocks I have made

for the Christmas Star Block Swap

over at the Friendship Block Swap Group:)

The first block is called The Spinning Star.

My second block is named Carolyn's Star.

I am hoping to get one more set done

 before the mailing deadline...

A set is 5 blocks to swap for 5 different blocks.

These are 12" blocks, so it won't

take many to make a wonderful

Christmas throw-size quilt:)

We can use any star block pattern we want,

but we do have to use Christmas fabrics and

the background has to be white-on-white.

Thanks for stopping by:)

Hope everyone has a productive and blessed week.

Hugs,

Terry

God's Blessings are everywhere...we just need to take the time to look for them.



Christmas in the Mail

Today's mail brought me this wonderfully cute little snow guy:)  He is from Pat H over on a Dear Jane group.  He is the first "Snowperson" to arrive from the swap...
I do believe this is going to be a really, really fun swap and these blocks are sure to make a snowonderful quilt:) 

Also in the mail came these wonderful Christmas ornaments...they were made by Mary W. over at the  The Friendship Block Swap group.   Over there we are having a Secret Santa Ornament Swap... toooo fun!!!  I have my ornaments about ready to mail to their new home, but I can't share a picture just yet.  Will have to wait until they are received, wouldn't want to spoil her surprise:)



Lots of Christmas gift activity going on here at my house, but alas I cannot share yet :(
I don't want to ruin any surprises....

Thanks for stopping by, I hope everyone is having a great month.

Love & Hugs,
Terry

New Quilt Block Swap!!!!

My dear friend, Rosa is hosting a  "Snow person" block swap and this is the block I have chosen to make:)  I really love this block. I think this little Star Snowman is soooo cute, and he's really pretty easy to make!!! That's always a plus for swap blocks:)

I found the pattern over at Sindy Rodenmayer's site. 

Well 2 down, 12 to go!!!!! 

Hoping to get these done this week:) 

"Happy Stitching" to all those who sew.
