Oh no! Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas are all sneaking up on us! What projects do you have lined up for the holidays? I had ordered this “Let It Snow” mini-quilt several months ago and just finished it. Now time for the next project!
This “Let it Snow” kit was from Anka’s Treasures, several color variations are available and you can also order a printed or PDF pattern. This is after it was all pieced.
What a difference the quilting makes! Just makes it look so cozy and homey! Mary Kay Lambert did such an amazing job quilting this!
The quilting pattern is perfect! Looks like swirling snowflakes.
Always embroiderer or put a label on your quilts, to identify who made them and what year.
I loved the cute little home and Christmas trees with the snow flakes falling around them.
I decided to experiment with some holiday embellishments. I tried a variety of buttons and holiday decorations.
In the end, I decided to add just a few. The dog at the front door look Goldie, our dog when the kids were growing up. The little cardinal in the window and candy canes just seemed to complete the house.
Enjoy being creative! Sewing allows you be create treasures that can be
personalized. It is usually very relaxing and therapeutic (well – it can get frustrating
when you have to rip and redo!)
So be on the lookout for treasured gifts to make or holiday projects for your home.
Happy Holidays!
