It's That Time!

Every year Darlene at Insights from SewCalGal has a Christmas quilt show~ You will be inspired beyond words when you start viewing all those wonderful links!

 I'm a little late in joining the fun this year, but would like to share this little quilt with you...
 I made these two mini's a few years ago and sent one to my friend, Bonnie,  in a swap.  It was so fun to sew a 'secret' and we gave each other convoluted little teaser peeks as we went along. :-) Every year when I get mine out, it brings me wonderful memories of our little exchange.

This is the cute mini Bonnie sent me~~ I love it!  See the little label she embroidered?  It is these wonderful gifts and exchanges from friends that make this time of year so special.  Thank you again Bonnie!! :-)

Christmas Quilt Show

Have you heard about SewCalGal's Christmas Quilt Show? It is very inspiring! Hop on over and look at all the gorgeous entries!

I had a hard time deciding which quilt to enter~ not because I have so many Christmas quilts! :-o  I don't ( I'm working on that) ;-) but because the ones I do have all have special meanings to me. I decided to show you this one. (and blogger tipped my photo! :-( boo! ) This lap quilt started out as a swap for 6.5 inch squares of snowmen fabric. Then I used all my snowflake prints to make the nine patch blocks. It was fun to see all the different snowman fabrics while swapping with my friends~ I'd not seen even half of them in the shops near me! I made it about 6 years ago and it is a family favorite for snuggling and watching TV. It reminds me of a great swap, great quilting friends, and happy days stitching.

Thanks for stopping by! Now don't forget to go see all the quilts in the show!
