Busy ~ Busy

Happy Wednesday!
I've been sewing!  I think a new house needs a new Christmas decoration, so got this card holder from one of Nancy Halvorsen's books ready to quilt. :-)



I need to say thank you to a few quilty friends~ Joanne at Splitting Stitches had a 'decorate her studio wall' contest a while back and we sent her quilted blocks. I was the lucky winner in her drawing and she was very generous! The cup has a little cat ornament kit in it, and I almost have it together. I'd never had chocolate covered Peeps and they were yummy! Thank you Joanne! :-)

This group of FQ's was a sponsored giveaway by Rosebud Quilter on Amy's blog before she changed to Amy's Creative Side... It may have taken them a while to find me, but I loved the surprise mail!  Thank you Michelle and Amy. I know exactly what to do with these, I just need to shop a little for a border fabric. :-)

I hope you are having a great day!
Until next time~
Happy Stitchin'!!
