Goodies

I received my cottage blocks in the mail the other day. They are all so great. I don't have an idea on how to set the blocks yet and I know it won't be made into a quilt this year. I do know that there will be trees and snow. I will probably just keep them up on my design wall and admire them for a while. A BIG Thank you to Terri and Nanette for hosting this swap!


The same day I got the blocks I got another package from my blogging friend Stephanie. She is always making fantastic bags and she sent me one. Isn't it beautiful!? She also sent me the last cottage in the group.Here is another block finished for my tree skirt. I am working on the other two bird blocks.

Check out Pat Sloan's web site for a bunch of free patterns.

With Passion, Carrie P.

  2. I think we all feel that way - kind of "yayyy we love them" now what! Time time time! Not enough of it. But I'm determined to start on it. No matter.

  3. Yes, I love my blocks and I hope to be able to get them put together soon. Hopefully this year but whenever I will get to enjoy them forever. Your block for the Christmas tree skirt is so gorgeous.

  4. The cottages are adorable! I wish I could have participated but it happened when I was swamped with work. It'll be an adorable quilt.

    Stephanie's bags are all darling.

    And, your tree skirt is going to be stunning!
