We had our first snow yesterday.
This is the view out of my kitchen window.......
I love to watch the birds early in the
morning while I'm putting the coffee on....
Cardinals, bluejays, juncos, woodpeckers and
many many more.

And

since what I love usually turns 
into a quilt


This is "Winter Solstice BOM".
In honor of our first snowstorm it's
on sale for 25% off all week.
You can go to our store to buy a copy

As soon as we finish shopping

 lets go see what the 

others have done with Vanessa's block.

Blockheads 3, Block 50

Night & Day

by

Laurie Simpson 



You can go to her blog
to download the
pattern by clicking 

here

Our vintage book this month is


Parts 1 and 2.

and one of my favorite quilts in the books is


Zoie's Christmas Kitties

I have a new kitty
Her name is Chantilly
and she's a sweetheart.
She loves to take naps on my bed.



And this is Midnight

Nancy's cat.  And he really is Nancy's cat.

He follows her everywhere. 



The only one I couldn't take a 

picture of is Dueces -Pep's tuxedo cat.

I think he's up in the barn taking care of mice.

He and our 6 ft black snake take great care of the

mice.  I really prefer Dueces but I've never been afraid 

of snakes - non poisonous ones, of course.

But  lets see what the 

others have done with Laurie's block.

Blockheads 3. Block 46

                                                                 Rose block

                                                          I hope I have the right number 

but at least this is the right block.

To download the pattern you

will need to click here.


And of course, this is the
Yellow Rose of Texas.

What other color could it be on
Moda's website??

And since this is a somewhat tricksy block,
I thought I would post a couple of 
smaller projects from our Vintage Book 
Up on the Rooftop 


Christmas stockings are
always welcome so here are
two from the book


Rudolph Stocking 
and a 


                                                                      Snowman Stocking                      
                                                

You can go to the
store to order the book by 
clicking here

Before you go to see what the others
have done with my rose block,
make a comment, any old comment
and we'll have a drawing for a
Layer Cake of my latest fabrics, 
Mill Creek Garden.
I'm going to be resting after surgery
but Carrie said she would make sure
a comment gets picked and the Layer Cake
mailed.

For now,  lets go check out
 the other ladies and my rose block

Our Vintage Book
 this month is Up on the Rooftop 
and this is one of the


quilts in it "Rudolph and Company".
You can just repeat using the same
footprint and handprint 
or
if you have lots of kids or 
grandkids you can use all of their
footprints and handprints.  Then they 
can sign their block.  
And be sure to have them date it.

Meantime  lets go see 
what the other ladies did with Betsy's block
