As y'all know, I've declared this my year of quilting, and I'm having a GREAT time getting back to it after so many years of unintentional hiatus. I opted to join a block of the month club to make a sweet Christmas wallhanging. Using mostly wool along with a bit of velvet, it has an unusual primitive yet somewhat shabby chic feel to it. There are 9 applique blocks that spell out "CHRISTMAS" when it's all complete. This weekend, I made the first one. Completely appliqués by hand with a blanket stitch. So much fun!!! I can't wait for the next block to arrive in my mailbox the middle of next month! I think I may actually be able to stay on top of this and get it finished on time, for once 😉.
