A Gift for You and One for Me

a winter friend

It’s December!  I love the holidays.  Mostly for the spirit they bring of giving and good will.  And who has bigger hearts for giving than quilters and stitchers.  So I wanted to give something back to you.

I designed this little snowman and put him on a pillow.  Just click on the sketch below and you can have a copy to stitch up for any project you choose. Winter pattern 6 inches square

Enjoy!

 

And the gift for me is from Teresa for our Advent Swap…a gift a day till Christmas.

026

I opened the package to find this cute cuddly kangaroo guarding all the packages in her Christmas bag. 

She let me open the first package…

…and inside was a Leslie Beck panel for a stocking and Christmas tree skirt.  I’m going to be having some fun.

Thanks bunches Teresa. I’m excited for tomorrow!

    I just love your little winter friend - thanks for the FREE pattern! I just printed it out reducing it so that 9 would fit on a page. I'm hoping to get some small ornaments made for teachers ;)


    I'm also going to share your blog link with my redwork friends over at the HGTV Quilter's Message Board ;)

    Love from Texas! ~bonnie
