Christmas Quilt Along - Post #2

Hello Everyone,

 

Here are the results of my QAL project so far.  One cute, little 7-1/2" block that needs something in the center.

 

 

I tucked a little plaid flange between the two pieces of fabric and top-stitched it down. 

Here's a closeup of the flange.

 

So my plan is to make a series of little blocks in all shades of neutral, with a flange, and with different little Christmas "things" in the center.  It's going to be petite and delicate....just like me!  Wink, wink, chuckle, chuckle!!

 

More to come next month during the QAL.  I had to cut this month short since we have company and we have some exploring, hiking and eating to do!



 

This is what we just enjoyed for breakfast.....Fiesta Brunch.  Now we are ready to hit the hiking trails again.
