Hello!
Guess what I finished this week??? I finished the last stitchery (so far anyway) for my Christmas Stitchery Mini Quilt. Here it is . . .
The very last stitchery will be available this Friday. I can't wait! Maybe I'll get started on piecing the top before it comes out so I can get ahead of the game. We'll have to see if I can get motivated to do it. :)
Guess what else I did? The latest Birdie Stitches Block of the Month . . .
The November block was released on November 1st. I sat down to get it started and couldn't stop until I finished it! I added some extras to it too. :) I had forgotten how much I love this Sophie fabric and these birdies! I really enjoyed working on it and can't wait until the last block comes out on December 1st. Wonder if there will be a Christmas tree? I bet there will be one! :)
Today I received a couple of surprises in the mail . . .
The first was a Thanksgiving quilt block from Toni in Pennsylvania. This is part of a 12-month quilt block swap over at Mary Jane's Farm. Here's the block . . .
Isn't it wonderful! She did an awesome job appliqueing it! Thanks so much Toni! I love it! :) Toni also sent me three other items she made . . . a towel, a washcloth and a card! I'm a lucky girl! :)
It was like an early Christmas here as I also received this in the mail . . .
A fall apron made for me by Raine in Wisconsin. Through another swap at Mary Jane's Farm. Isn't it lovely?! She really did a nice job with it! Thanks Raine! :) She also sent me some apple fabric and a Thanksgiving towel. How sweet! Love it all! :)
Be sure to come back here tomorrow. As tomorrow is the day . . . It's the day I reveal my Ghastlie projects! I have given you a couple of hints in the past. Remember this . . .
and this . . .
What in the world could they be? Can you venture a guess? Well the wait will be over tomorrow! I will be posting them at 12:01am (eastern time) Friday, November 4th! Shhhhhh . . . don't tell anyone . . . but I'll be giving one of my items away! Be sure to come for a visit tomorrow! :)
Lots of lovely stitching going on in your neck of the woods Cherise. Thanks for becoming one of my blog followers. I shall be back posting after November 5th.
