What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

The designs in this project file would make great wall-hangings or table cloths rather than bed quilts … the first one on the wall, the second on the table.

I have to admit that I might use them on a table in the corner of a study or bedroom rather than the dining table … I made a table cloth many years ago, and it still has the stain where the cream was spilt almost in the centre the first time it was used! If I make another one I will cover it with a clear plastic to protect it!

I have ...

The first design is a showcase of block designs used in this project file, though not all blocks have been included.

I think I will claim the two parcels under the tree in the design above … I wonder what is in them.

Love the snowmen, birds, the candy canes, the bells, and the top star.

Gnomes are busy tidying things up, though the one above has the fairies helping out.

I think one gnome is in disguise as a Nutcracker!

These designs are a bit like my decorations around our home this year … the trees have escaped from storage, but so far very few shelf sitter decorations are still in lockdown.

At least, there are quite a few trees to choose from.

I love the candy canes, though I have to admit that I don’t really like the sweet king, just the virtual kind, and the kind I can hang on a Christmas tree.

Love the second design.

Just five sleeps!

Just a thought … it is nearly Christmas time, and a few days ago I planted a packet of thyme seeds, and today I think every seed has sprouted … and I have found another packet of thyme seeds. If I plant them in some dirt today, will I get more time for Christmas?

I think it is worth a try!

Nice tablecloth rather than a quilt, though a lot of space for the stains to show … a reminder that I must find our Christmas tablecloth with all the memories of Christmas past stained into the fabric!

This design looks like something small for the centre of a table, with a small tree in the centre, though that would hide the centre star.
