I looked at the calendar yesterday and had a mini heart attack…anyone else feel the same?
Here is a shot of my design wall today. This is going to be the center block for “Jingle”, next years block of the month. Hopefully I can get more info out and the pattern up in Patternspot this week.
OMG! I just realized that I left off a pair of leaves!
Unfortunately, an unexpected family “event” came up this past week so things might be a little wibble wobble the next few weeks depending on if I need to travel or not.
Mimi’s Bloomer’s final block should be up in the next few weeks as well.
Head on over to Judy’s blog to check out all the inspiration!
Love, love, love it!!!!!!!

Jingle looks lovely so far. I can't wait to get started on it. I am so thankful to you for your generous sharing of patterns. I don't get them done every year but I love to follow along. Hope your family is fine, happy holidays.

This is so beautiful. You really zoomed through this. The reds in the center are perfect. Can't wait to see the added blocks in the future.

Happy Sewing and Merry Christmas

Don't stress about it. Christmas will come, whether we're ready for it or not. It won't kill anyone if you are late one year. Hope the family stuff works out well. I had 'family' stuff come up in October and did lots of unexpected traveling. Well worth it, even if my gifts aren't ready yet. The people are way more important than the gifts.

I just created chalkboards as Christmas gifts for my friends. I tried to draw a Poinsetta on one of them, and I have to say, I really wish I had seen this first.. minne doesn't look as lovely :(

I wish you could have heard the delighted exclamation i made when the photo showed your block.... Lovely, lovely! A perfect blend of traditional and modern. Love it!
Best wishes for you & your family!

Jingle looks gorgeous, might be tempted to make this.
Posted by: Carole | 12/11/2012 at 02:50 AM
Can't wait! Its GORGEOUS!
Posted by: Lea | 12/11/2012 at 05:43 AM
Oh, wow! You had me at pomegranates and poinsettias! I've always watched your beautiful BOMs and enjoyed everyone's work but thought they looked too detailed for my poor efforts. I won't be able to resist this one and I'm going to start getting my fabrics together now. It looks like I'll be needing greens, reds and goldy yellows. Do we really have to wait until after Christmas to start??????
