Mail Call


*
Before Christmas Michele hosted the Christmas Quilt Show 2012.
My name was drawn for a prize and I was the lucky recipient of a $25.00 Gift Certificate 
from Fabric.com
Most of my goodies arrived yesterday ,
(there's fabric that's missing however I'm hoping this gets resolved today),
**(things did get resolved and I have a credit)**
here's what did  show up in my mailbox ~

Oooo La ~La
MICHAEL MILLER'S
"SPRINGTIME IN PARIS"
I absolutely love these fashions, tre chic, non?
*
*
On the left, Riley Blake, destine for pillowcases and take
a second glance at the pink, do you see them?
Squirrels! garden of delights.
*
*
Nice, 2" pins with heads my fingers can actually grip (yay)
and chocolate thread.
Now if only my brown dot fabric had shown up too, those cases would be finished!

2012 CHRISTMAS QUILT SHOW


*
*
*
This year I decided to do something a little different for my entry.
*


*
This pillow pattern was presented to a group of quilters/crafters as part of hop
(see my previous post...there's a giveaway there!)
*

*
I had so much free reign with it and added my own flare through FMQ in the sky with lots of swirling movement and on many of the houses with texture and details.
*
*
My ghostly snowman could be from winter's past.
*

*
Houses have been appliqued with Santas and wreaths for added festive flavour.
*
*
See the icicles hanging from the window panes? Brrrrr
*
*
I added sparkling lights to 2 of the houses with more FMQ.
*
It's a wonderful pattern, very easy to do and can be changed up to be personalized in so many ways.
Why not link up your seasonal/holiday project and join the fun at the 
2012 Christmas Quilt Show.
